Hello there!
My name’s Daisy. I’m a
duck, I live at the farm of
what’s-her-name, who
usually writes this piece of
foolishness.
She’s had a tiring week
and appears to be falling
apart. First her kitchen
clock spun its gears out;
then the stove died. And, her
kids trucked on home from a
farm display with two dozen
baby chicks and a pair of
guinea pigs in an unplanned
pet expansion.
Fact is, the last time I saw
her, she was galloping
toward the bam, way behind
schedule. She was mut
tering, “If this column
doesn’t get written, they’ll
cook my goose.”
She really shouldn’t worry
- no one could cook anything
on that dead stove. But I
thought I’d help her out of
her predicament, so I
hurried in to the typewriter.
Naturally, I type by the
“hunt and peck” method.
') have a
nice weekend...

Goodness knows, though, I
really don’t have time to do
this sort of thing. I’m a
mother now, you know.
Confidentially, I thought
the blessed event would
never happen. For two
Summers, I patiently sat on
nests of eggs that just laid
there and refused to
respond.
Ihen I discovered, in a
government brochure from
the Consumer Bureau, that it
helped if you had a father
duck around.
Just in the nick of time,
two big, strong, handsome
drakes arrived here to live in
the bam. It was love at first
sight. Following a brief
Springtime romance, we
were wed.
Finally, a day came at last
when the eggs I Lad tenderly
nurtured for three weeks
began to make strange

was an easy home delivery
with no complications; and
my happiness was- un
bounded as I proudly showed
off my adorable eleven fuzzy
yellow babies.
But mother never warned
me what a job it is to raise a
family!
All those hungry beaks to
feed!
It’s “Mom, I’m hungry!”
all day long. Have you ever
tried to find enough bugs and
worms to satisfy eleven
insatiable appetites?
And then I have to put up
with this constant hassle
about eating junk foods -
paper,- sawdust, bits of
aluminum foil, even a piece
of marshmallow that those
human kids tried to feed
