Once more, the junior members of this family have turned the house into a mini farm machinery work area. As usual, the kitchen was selected for the field testing. And, since we’re all admittedly tired of snow and longing for the sight of familiar green fields, the imaginations turned to hay baling. The windrows of hay were the stripes on my front-of the-sink rug. The bales were...would you believe...dominos? Small fingers laid the dominos on the ejector pan of the foot-long toy hay baler. Hooked behind the tractor and baler was a manure spreader, adapted for temporary use as a wagon. Then with all the thrust of a karate chop, a little hand socked down on the trip that flips the “bale” back into the “wagon.” The karate chop was too much. The domino flew through the air and landed in on the living room floor. Our resident big farmer snickered. “You bale just like your mother. She can’t hit the wagon either.” I slid off my- chair and under the table to hide. Yes, it’s true. Baling hay with that ejector baler and getting those blocks of grass into that wagon trailing way back behind in not my most admirable talent. Actually, the job was sort between two cookies and serve. PEANUT BUTTER CHEWS 1 cup granulated sugar 1 cup com syrup 1 cup peanut butter 1 tablespoon margarine com flaked cereal Combine sugar, syrup, and margarine in saucepan and ui>ng wi nulling. Add peanut butter and bring to boil again. Pour mixture over com flaked cereal. Drop from a spoon onto greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350°F. for five to seven minutes or until done.

However, knowing that the neighbors were peeking from behind their curtains and placing bets on how many I’d lose kind of made me nervous. Somehow, I never could quite adjust the proper amount of hydraulic tilt to the ejector to compensate for baling on our hilly-hills where wagons always hang sideways. Either I tilted too far to the right and the bales caught the upper side of the wagon and fell just over the side, getting tangled up in the back wheels which made pancakes of the blocks, or, I tilted too far to the left, and a certain farmer had to travel two fields down the hill to retrieve the little beasties. So, many men don’t even allow me to operate that line up of equipment anymore. After driving back and forth over fields, hoisting three quarters of a load of heavy bales back up over the seven-foot walls of the wagon, the farmer has retired me from the baler operator duty. He thinks I’m just a lousy shot with a bale ejector - don’t tell him it’s more fun to go swimming those hot Summer days. Heh, heh, heh!
