How to get Work Done on a Farm.

Every farmer is at times oppressed with a sense of an overwhelming number of things that require to be done. We have seen a nervous man in such circumstances commence one job and before he had got fairly started, abandon it for something that seemed more pressing, merely to leave this in that same unfinished state; and when night came he had accomplished little or nothing, and passed home tossing on a sleepless bed thinking what he should do on the morrow. A young farmer could not adopt a better rule than to repeat to himself every morning. "What soever thy hand finds to do, do it with thy might." and act on it. When a job is commenced finish before beginning another, but at the same time, attend to the little things. But if you happened to get behind, strike a lively gait, do one thing at a time, when it is done, take a little rest by immediately commencing another, and in this way you will pull through in good time.
