Do you ever get the feeling that maylx.* the space age is moving too doggone fast in some areas? I got that feeling some time ago when I thumbed through the Redfield (S.D.) Press and read that the modern way to spread fertilizer is with aircraft. “No waste, even distribution, fast appli cation,” the advertisement read. I’d just like to know if the fellow who wrote that ad copy ever had to hand-spread a load of manure on a windy, wintery day? The daily manure run was one of iny youthful chores when school wasn’t in ses sion, and I can vividly remember the neces sity for developing a successful spreading technique. When throwing a forkful into the teeth of a blizzard, for example, it is absolutely essential to turn your face im mediately away from the direction in which you have thrown. Frequently, I suffered the consequences of not moving quickly enough. One learns from such experience. We used a bobsled and a team of horses, and the horses were guided from a pre carious perch on the rear of the sled. Yon had to stand with your feet spread wide apart, because it just wasn't smart to fall to either side. Nor was it advisable to fall for ward. This meant that you leaned back wards, and if you lost your balance, the chances were fair that you’d fall off the back of the sled. This made for a longer but much cleaner fall. Sometimes when a runner of the sled hit a rock, there would be a sudden interruption of forward progress, and avoiding a forward fall was absolutely impossible. It is an un forgettable experience, and must be the basis for the saying about it being possible to take the boy out of the farm but not the farm out of the boy. My father was a very particular barn keeper. He demanded that the floor be white and spotless. It is only too obvious that he wasn’t concerned about his son stay ing in like condition. Dad’s way of telling me to make the ma nure run was to assure me that I needed the fresh air. I could never quite figure out how you were supposed to get any fresh air while riding on a mound of manure. I never asked him about it though, be cause he would have told me to “think fresh,” and under the circumstances I just wasn’t up to it. An editorial in the Crooks!on (Mian.) Daily Tunes criticizes college boys for “that silly and dangerous business” of competing for the record of being tumbled in a clothes dryer for as long as possible. You can't but tend to agr«*e with the Crookston editor that it is silly and danger ous, but you just might ask why this fad hasn’t given someone the idea of marketing a machine especially designed to wash Imys —younger boys. The machine would, of course, have to slow down the agitator action and provide for an air supply while a lx>v was going through the washing cycle. Ariel if most l>oys are anything like ours, there would have to he a huge sand and mud filter on the ma chines drain in order to avoid plugging up the plumbing. If enough mothers would like to sec a clean-boy-machine, perhaps this column can persuade a manufacturer to try the project A United Press item that doubtless ap peared elsewhere also, but which came to this column’s attention in the Watertown (Wis.) Daily Times, said that people could improve their posture by acting like cats. It said that if a person would get down on all fours and arch his back like a cat, his posture would improve. Another suggested exercise was the “dog stretch” in which you bend down from a standing position Until the palms touch the floor. The fingers are then “walked” forward until the body is in a “push-up” position. The feet are walked to ward the hands and you stand up straight, or straighter. Now, if I tried either of these exercises the following things would likely happen: someone would step on my fingers, one of the kids would jump on my back, the dog would bite me, my wife would demand to smell my breath, and if the neighbors were looking in the window they’d call the police. :&m I GLASSES - OLD AND NEW It may not look it but it is the same girl, wearing old and new sun glasses. The pair at left was made in France with hand-engraved design details for a feminine ac cent. At right, in contrast, is a pair of 1860 glasses that feature yellow-tint ed glass in the center sur rounded by white opaque glass.
