CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
I think that some of you have been with me at Willow Farm before to-day.
When we were there we went into the farmer's fields in early spring, and
saw the men and horses at work with ploughs and harrows. A little later
on we saw some of the crops sown, such as barley and turnips. In summer
we were in the hay-and corn-fields, and later still we saw the ricks
being made.
To-day we are at Willow Farm again, and I want to show you some of the
flowers that grow there.
