This book was released on 2017-05-20 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Syllabus of Illustrated Lecture on Farm Home Grounds, Their Planting and Care The next Slide shows a farm home. The whole place looks comfortable. It invites you to come in and sit with the family by the fireside. It is a home; you would like to live there. A few trees, a vine or two, and some grass may make the dif ference between a house and a home. A house is merely a Shelter, a place where people stay. A home is a house, with evi dences in and about it that the people who live there love it. They have taken the trouble to make it attractive and inviting. There are in this country too many farmhouses and too few farm homes. Yet no one loves his family more than the farmer or is more interested in their welfare. His neglect of their surroundings is not from lack of affection but lack of knowledge and appreciation of the effect Of Shrubs, trees, vines, and a well-kept lawn Upon the family life. Farm homes ought to be the most attractive of all homes, Since they are in the open country where plants live and are free to grow. Very few farms are as unfortunately situated as that shown in this picture. This is a farmhouse on a cattle range in one of the semiarid regions of the West, beyond the possibility of irrigation. The landscape is drear and desolate. Not a tree can be seen - only a waste of sagebrush and cacti. The desert has a charm of its own, but without irrigation this house can never be made homelike on the outside, whatever it may be within. How different is the scene in the next picture, which shows a farm home under more favorable circumstances. Grass and trees, the two most important aids to home adornment, grow luxuriantly. It is easy to have an attractive home under these conditions. The great majority Of American farms are located Where trees, grass, and flowers grow without special care; if, therefore, the home is not attractive, it is-due solely to the negligence of those who are entrusted with its care.

Download or read book The Prairie Farmer s Vegetable Garden Classic Reprint written by Canada Department of Agriculture and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-22 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Prairie Farmer's Vegetable Garden Speaking broadly, the farm should supply the farm table. Shall this supply be limited to the essentials for a bare existence or shall it reach the standard Of what we call good living? The answer depends upon the part played therein by the farm garden. What returns may we expect from such a garden? The greatest is one hard to measure in dollars and cents, namely, the furnishing Of an attractive and healthful variety in the daily fare. Next, we save the money otherwise spent for a limited, irregular and inferior purchased supply Of garden products. Our present knowledge of home canning, curing and storing makes the products Of our farm garden available at all seasons. Thirdly, many prairie farms are so situated as to command a ready and profitable sale for surplus garden crops. The soil and climate Of Western Canada are particularly well suited to many kinds Of vegetables, which reach an unsurpassed excellence. The labour involved in keeping a good farm garden is not great, is not heavy, does not demand special equipment and can mostly be done in spare time. The garden on the farm is, therefore, possible, profitable and interesting. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
