3 There were the useful seedhngs,
Like the wheat and graceful oats ;
There were string beans and peas
In their bright-green little coats;
And some grew very lowly —
Indeed, beneath the ground ;
But with lovely blooming flowers
Each little hill was crowned.
4 There were squashes in the garden,
Tomatoes bright and red,
And light-green heads of lettuce.
All gathered in a bed.
The fringy leaves of carrots
A lovely contrast made,
And beneath the leaf, the cucumber
Was resting in the shade.
5 Thus the vegetable creation
Spoke loudly of the care
That in city or m country
Is around us everywhere ;
But 'tis far more m the country
We see our Father's hand :
In every glance His love is shown
On every inch of land.

A napkin take and quickly make
A little coat to fit the shape,
And sew it very neatly in
With thread and needle, not a pin.
And thus it is a fish you boil ;
Without the coat 'twould break and spoil ;
And if you'd know when it is done,
A knitting-needle through it run.
If fish you fry, it must be dry ;
The cooking-fat not rise too high.
But heat must shut the juices in.
And yet not scorch or break the skin.
Of all the ways to cook a fish,
To broil it is the healthiest dish.
It soothes the nerves, the brain it feeds;
So broil the fish, the doctor pleads.
