The
plowing season has arrived despite tha fact that I am still in winter wear. New grasses
have sprouted extensively. The trees are unfolding their buds. The local
farmers are busy plowing or preparing for that. The work has almost been
mechanized. I feel regret at seeing some farmers burning corn stems in their
fields. It is a waste of energy. While they set them on fire for saving
trouble, many others who need them are searching for everywhere. As one of
these fuel-poor
people, I am grateful for the kindness and generosity of some farmers to
discard their corn stems at the roadside ditches for the convenience of those
using them to find and pick up.
