FARMER'S LETTER TO SANTA Old Santa sat in his easy chaivy reading his letters from here and there, Wh^n all of a sudden "AHA" said he, the Alherta Farmers have written to me, I suppose they want a new fangled plow, or maybe some sort of a special cow.

FARMER'S LETTER TO SANTA Old Santa sat in his easy chaivy reading his letters from here and there, Wh^n all of a sudden "AHA" said he, the Alherta Farmers have written to me, I suppose they want a new fangled plow, or maybe some sort of a special cow. Oh well, he sighed, and shook his head, then opened the letter and slowly read: Dear Santa: We know we're asking for quite a lot, but there are so many things we haven't got. So we thought we 'd ask you to try and find these gifts for us that we have in mind, A few less hoppers and a bit less rain, when harvest time rolls around again. We're tired of hail and wind storms here, so you needn't bother with them this year. Give us higher prices for eggs and cream, and lower prices for gasoline. Give us plenty of markets for all ouj* grain, and a good cattle market once again. This is our list and at the top, what we really want is a bumper crop. And oust one more thing ere your patience cracks, give us strength to master the income tax. Santa laughed and put the letter away, then stepped outside to look at the sleigh. And right ontop by the dolls, pretty charmers, he placed a box of GOOD LUCK for Alberta Farmers!.
