| 4509 | How shall we explain the good effect of warm water on branches in a resting state? 4509 I find,"they say,"that such acres are held as''lots''at wildly speculative prices"and they ask"Where can I find such land?" |

| 4509 | Can you take pride in an Empire on which the sun never sets when you think of the courts in which, as Will Crooks says, the sun never rises? |
| 4509 | Do you suppose the owner business would pay if it were run in the same way that his farm is run? |

| 4509 | She got the acres, built her house, and raised one fine crop of-- swans? |
| 4509 | Then what can you do? |
| 4509 | What is the root of our social and spiritual ailment? |
| 4509 | What is wrong with us? |
| 4509 | What may not be done by practical learning and applied intelligence? |
| 4509 | When the eve is cool? |
| 4509 | Which are you to be? |
| 4509 | Why? |
| 4509 | You remember the story of the wonderful coon that Chandler Harris tells? |
| 4509 | in gardens? |
| 4509 | nuts grafted on wild trees? |
| 4509 | partridge berries? |
| 11555 | And why should we not care to do so? |
| 11555 | But what ails her? |
| 11555 | But what it is that? 11555 But,"said I,"what sort of place do we really mean to take?" |
| 11555 | Have you any houses to let at such a distance from town, with such a quantity of land, such a number of rooms? |
| 11555 | Have you got a card from Mr.--? |
| 11555 | Is it far? |
| 11555 | Then why not take it at one? |
| 11555 | Well, then, who will buy a cow that is sure to be dead to- morrow or next day? |
| 11555 | Well,said the writer,"why not make the butter yourself, till you can suit yourself with a new servant?" |
| 11555 | Well,we asked,"what does it depend on?" |
| 11555 | What have we made? |
| 11555 | What of that? |
| 11555 | Where can we hope to find a house which will be suitable for ourselves, six children, and a small income? |
| 11555 | Where shall we live? |
| 11555 | Why, George, what can the pony want with sugar? |
| 11555 | & c."Oh, yes madam,"said the smiling clerk, and immediately opened a large ledger;"what rent do you propose giving?" |
| 11555 | And after all, what have you made by your butter- making, pig- killing, and fowl- slaughtering?" |
| 11555 | But now arose a difficulty which had not previously occurred to us: Who was to make it? |
| 11555 | Have any of our readers ever seen the densely- loaded wagons which enter that market? |
| 11555 | Here H. stopped him saying,"Pray, Mr. N., did you not purchase your children a pony, and did it not catch cold and die in a month afterwards? |
| 11555 | I.--WHERE SHALL WE LIVE? |
| 11555 | Must we give it up? |
| 11555 | Now what could I complain of? |
| 11555 | WHERE SHALL WE LIVE? |
| 11555 | We inquired, Why? |
| 11555 | What in the world could that mean? |
| 11555 | What shall we not make now that we have more stock, our ground well cropped, and, better still, have gained so much experience?" |
| 11555 | What were we to do? |
| 11555 | Where, indeed?" |
| 11555 | cried I;"how much do you intend to give a- year for all these conveniences:""How much?" |
| 11555 | get the staircases fixed, the doors and windows put in, the walls papered and painted?" |
| 11555 | must we give up all hope of eating our own butter, and regard the money as lost which we had just expended for the churn, etc.? |
| 35696 | But how shall we obtain fertilizers? |
| 35696 | Then why not leave them the field? |
| 35696 | --"But would n''t you have a young man study in order that he may become a good farmer?" |
| 35696 | A thousand? |
| 35696 | And how shall any one be enlightened and assured on the point, unless by the aid of Science? |
| 35696 | But how? |
| 35696 | Can we doubt that this steady recession of our Egypt, our Hungary, is destined to continue? |
| 35696 | Five hundred? |
| 35696 | He who has a farm already, and is content with it, has no reason to ask,"Whither shall I go?" |
| 35696 | How can we have good Fairs, if those who might make the best display of products save themselves the trouble by not making any? |
| 35696 | How many tuns of earth ought a farmer to be obliged to turn over and over in order to obtain therefrom a hundred bushels of Corn? |
| 35696 | How nearly have we realized this? |
| 35696 | If he does the best he can, what better_ can_ he do? |
| 35696 | If so, at what profit? |
| 35696 | If the produce is sold, most farmers know how much it brings; but how many know how much it cost? |
| 35696 | Most farmers fail to keep accounts with their several fields and crops; yet what could be more instructive than these? |
| 35696 | Of course, he must improve and enrich it; but with what? |
| 35696 | Ought we to do it? |
| 35696 | Say the Corn brings 75 cents per bushel, and the Oats 50 cents: was either or both produced at a profit? |
| 35696 | Shall not all who can do so at moderate cost resolve to test on their own farms the advantages and benefits that may be secured by Irrigation? |
| 35696 | Shall not these things be considered? |
| 35696 | The good farmer begins by inquiring,"Wherein was my soil originally deficient? |
| 35696 | Then why did they not try? |
| 35696 | Two hundred? |

| 35696 | Why should not our Atlantic slope have its Lombardy? |

| 17683 | How will we propagate this valuable race of the cherry? |
| 17683 | Is it not by the invaluable aid of men who have given their whole lives to the solution of some special problem? |
| 17683 | Is not the expert swine- grower the successful man? |
| 17683 | It plainly indicated to these observers that some important event was impending, and what could be more important than the birth of a great man? |

| 12140 | What? |
| 12140 | Where, then, Axius, do you wish me to begin? |
| 12140 | Would you think it possible,said Fundanius,"for any thing to grow in such a region, and, if it did grow, how could it be cultivated? |
| 12140 | You who have travelled over many lands,said he,"have you seen any country better cultivated than Italy?" |
| 12140 | [ 68]But,"said Fundanius,"suppose I inherited a farm like that, what should I do to avoid the malady you describe?" |

| 26975 | A perennial question in agricultural education is: What is the function of the agricultural college? |
| 26975 | And if he can, is he to be an aristocrat, a landlord, a captain of industry, and to bear rule over the mossback? |
| 26975 | And is the tribe of mossbacks destined to increase and become a caste of permanent tenants or peasants? |
| 26975 | And the test question is, Will this line of work yield me the growth, the culture, I desire? |
| 26975 | And where is Hesperia? |
| 26975 | And why not? |
| 26975 | Are there not for them some of the blessings that come from a highly organized society? |
| 26975 | Are there not, in the country also, opportunities for the co- operation of mind and heart for common service? |
| 26975 | At the outset the queries may arise, What is meant by rural social science? |
| 26975 | But do they differ in this respect from their cousins of the town? |
| 26975 | But have not the women of the country some resources of a similar character? |
| 26975 | But have we yet reached the heart of the question? |
| 26975 | But if every country pastor can not have a social- service church, is it not possible that every country church shall have a social- service pastor? |
| 26975 | But in his heart of hearts he ponders the deeper questions: What may I become in real intellectual and moral worth? |
| 26975 | But is it insoluble? |
| 26975 | But is the charge wholly just? |
| 26975 | But the burden of the suggestion at this point is this: Can not the churches unite sufficiently for a thorough religious and sociological canvass? |
| 26975 | But what are the elements that yield culture to an individual? |
| 26975 | But what of that? |
| 26975 | CHAPTER V CULTURE FROM THE CORN LOT[2] The question of questions that the college student asks himself is, What am I going to be? |
| 26975 | Can I extract culture from the corn lot? |
| 26975 | Can it announce, in sound terms, its proposed group policy? |
| 26975 | Can it develop efficient leaders? |
| 26975 | Can it lend the group influence to genuine social progress? |
| 26975 | Can not the Granges of New England profitably co- operate more fully? |
| 26975 | Can the farming class secure and maintain a fairly complete organization? |
| 26975 | Can the new farmer maintain the same relative social status? |
| 26975 | Can they not in some way break the bonds of isolation? |
| 26975 | Could not boards of agriculture co- operate to some extent, especially in farmers''institute work with general plans and ideas? |
| 26975 | Do they stunt or encourage the inner life? |
| 26975 | Does not the price of wheat mean as much to the hard- working grower as to the broker who may never see a grain of it? |
| 26975 | Does not this discussion at least show the supreme importance of the question? |
| 26975 | Does one say, this is asking too much of the burdened country pastor with his meager salary and widespread parish? |
| 26975 | How can rural teachers learn to appreciate the social function of the rural school, except they be taught? |
| 26975 | How can this co- operation be brought about? |
| 26975 | How far can this idea be developed in the country school? |
| 26975 | How is this man to be reached, inspired, instructed? |
| 26975 | How large a man, measured by the divine standards, will it be possible for me to grow into? |
| 26975 | If they can not federate on a theological platform, can they not unite on a statistical platform? |
| 26975 | If they can not unite for religious work, can they not join hands long enough to secure a more intelligent basis for their separate work? |
| 26975 | In view of the facts which have been given, I think if one were asked to give a direct answer to the question, Is the farmer keeping up? |
| 26975 | Is he not indeed the logical candidate for general social leadership in the rural community? |
| 26975 | Is not Ben Bolt''s new top buggy as legitimate a topic for discussion as is Arthur John Smythe''s new automobile? |
| 26975 | Is the ambition to own a fine farm more ignoble than the desire to own shares in a copper mine? |
| 26975 | Is the country continually gaining in those things that are fundamentally important and that minister to its best life? |
| 26975 | Is the farm problem one of technique plus business skill, plus these broad economic considerations? |
| 26975 | Is the idea of a genuine New England fair a mere dream? |
| 26975 | Is there any good reason why this ambition is not worthy, or why its goal should not be won? |
| 26975 | It may be asked, How does the order manage to advocate public measures without becoming involved in partisan squabbles? |
| 26975 | Know what? |
| 26975 | Let me ask if the pastor has any other road to power except_ to know_? |
| 26975 | May not the grove at Turtle Lake yield as keen enjoyment as do the continental forests? |
| 26975 | Shall we not all work together for the betterment both of the farm and of the farmer? |
| 26975 | So the question will arise, Can he get any help from education in the handling of the business phases of his farm? |
| 26975 | The surface query is, What am I going to_ do_? |
| 26975 | WHAT IS THE FARM PROBLEM? |
| 26975 | What are his tools? |
| 26975 | What are some of these regular agencies? |
| 26975 | What are these needs? |
| 26975 | What classes of people may be expected to welcome and profit by instruction of this character? |
| 26975 | What does this adaptation consist in? |
| 26975 | What is it that makes the new farmer? |
| 26975 | What results have I been able to discover growing out of this work? |
| 26975 | What shall be his attitude toward them? |
| 26975 | What was my ideal in organizing such associations? |
| 26975 | Who is he? |
| 26975 | Will agriculture as a business, will the farm life and environment, contribute to the growth which I desire for myself? |
| 26975 | Will not the farmers rally themselves to and league themselves with the men who are trying to forward the best interests of the farm? |
| 26975 | Yet would we expect from either system the same social fruitage that has been harvested from our American yeomanry? |
| 26975 | and, What is there to be investigated and taught under such a head? |
| 38955 | And do you regard your cure as permanent? |
| 38955 | But did n''t they try to relieve your miseries? |
| 38955 | But how can these be discovered? |
| 38955 | But how did you finally recover? |
| 38955 | Butter? 38955 Can you hit the lady for the gentleman, Johnny?" |
| 38955 | Come, Willie; why, what''s the matter? 38955 Consulted them? |
| 38955 | During your residence here have you experienced the bad results of living in this climate? |
| 38955 | Have you any more of that prime Scotch ale? |
| 38955 | How old are you, my son? |
| 38955 | How will it end? |
| 38955 | How? |
| 38955 | Is this what you came to tell me? |
| 38955 | Judging from your recital, Mr. Ashley, there must be wonderful curative properties about this medicine? |
| 38955 | Of course you consulted the doctors regarding your difficulty? |
| 38955 | Pa, I have signed the pledge,said a little boy to his father, on coming home one evening;"will you help me keep it?" |
| 38955 | Tell me, to what bills do you refer? |
| 38955 | To go back to the original subject, Mr. Ashley, I suppose you see the same familiar faces about the lobby session after session? |
| 38955 | Uncle, when sis sings in the choir Sunday nights, why does she go behind the organ and taste the tenor''s mustache? |
| 38955 | Was it not an idea? |
| 38955 | Was that not better than this? |
| 38955 | Well, I have brought a copy of the pledge; will you sign it, papa? |
| 38955 | Well, you wo n''t ask me to pass the bottle, papa? |
| 38955 | What do you think of it? 38955 What have you to drink?" |
| 38955 | What proportion of these blood- bills are successful? |
| 38955 | Where''s the ale, Willie? |
| 38955 | Why? |
| 38955 | You do not regard the lobby, as a body, vicious, do you? |
| 38955 | You remember Frank Dobb, who belonged to our old Pen and Pencil Club, and who ran away from that Cuban wife of his just before I left home? 38955 ''Is this a question,''said he,''from a man like you? 38955 ''Were there not of old,''said I,''many great manufacturers in this city?'' 38955 A nice life for a fellow to lead, eh? |
| 38955 | Are there any which do not blight? |
| 38955 | Ashley?" |
| 38955 | Ashley?" |
| 38955 | But he slipped his hands into his pockets, looked appealingly at McGilp, and said, shrugging his shoulders,"You see how it is, Mac?" |
| 38955 | But how is this to be accomplished? |
| 38955 | But, Captain, do n''t you suppose there were giants there long ago, in the former generations? |
| 38955 | Can Congress longer hesitate in this matter of providing an efficient law for protection from contagious animal diseases? |
| 38955 | Can not THE PRAIRIE FARMER start a boom that will lead to the establishment of an Arbor Day all over the State? |
| 38955 | Can you give me the facts? |

| 38955 | Do you know of any parties that cultivate them? |
| 38955 | Do you know, Mr. X., that I never knew he had been married till after he had fled? |
| 38955 | Finally, said he, What has that got to do with my question about buying cattle and sheep at the stock yards? |
| 38955 | H. HARRIS, HOLT''S PRAIRIE, ILL.--Will it do to tile drain land which has a hard pan of red clay twelve to eighteen inches below the surface? |

| 38955 | How many of those people became customers? |
| 38955 | How would you class it? |
| 38955 | I asked myself, or was it really true, as his father had told me, that he had fled alone? |
| 38955 | I demanded of a peasant, who was reaping grain on the sands of the sea- shore, how long ago this change took place? |
| 38955 | Is not blue grass pasture the best thing I can give my hogs? |
| 38955 | Know ye not that cities are not now part of the human economy? |
| 38955 | L. C. LEANIARTT(?) |
| 38955 | Might n''t the former race have been giants? |
| 38955 | Now why could we not make some use of this grass, and of others, such as quack- grass, which defy so persistently all our efforts to destroy them? |
| 38955 | Now, Puddin'', you can blow those things pretty straight, ca n''t you?" |
| 38955 | Professor-- And I suppose you know something about the Patagonians and their habits? |
| 38955 | Professor-- But how could you know that they used not to be giants? |
| 38955 | Professor-- But how did you satisfy yourself? |
| 38955 | Professor-- How did you ascertain this fact, Captain? |
| 38955 | Professor-- I wanted to ask you, Captain, about the size of the Patagonians-- whether they are giants, as travelers have reported? |
| 38955 | Shall I follow the directions you gave Mr. Perkins in THE PRAIRIE FARMER, February 9? |
| 38955 | The father was deeply moved, and turning to his brother- officers, he said:"Gentlemen, do you hear that? |
| 38955 | The point upon which I beg leave to differ from the gentleman is, should a farmer have a smattering idea of everything pertaining to farming? |
| 38955 | This is all there is of it; simple, is it not? |
| 38955 | What could I do when my brother- officers called-- the father had been in the army-- if I was a teetotaler?" |
| 38955 | What do you say? |
| 38955 | What else could I reply than,"Why do you lead it then?" |
| 38955 | What evidence could you get? |
| 38955 | What is the phylloxera, and what shall I do to my grape vines if they infest the roots? |
| 38955 | What is your name, my son?" |
| 38955 | What must we do? |
| 38955 | What pears would you recommend for this latitude? |
| 38955 | Why continue the tale? |

| 38955 | Why do n''t you try To be more spry, And not dilly- dally so? |
| 38955 | Why not? |
| 38955 | Why? |
| 38955 | Will it be necessary to keep them out till the grass gets a good start? |
| 38955 | Will you please regard this as a kind of an introduction into your"association?" |
| 38955 | Willie, have you your temperance pledge?" |
| 38955 | You remember Frank left some things in my care when he went away? |

| 12000 | Will the trees of the hedge- row be exposed to the same end? |
| 12000 | Will they ever carry the day against the green hedges? |
| 12000 | Will this expanded orb of humanity revolve around the same centre as the first family circle, or the first independent community? |
| 12000 | Will you see a single feature of the Old England of our common memories in them? |
| 12000 | Wilt thou not build him a better cottage to live in? |
| 12000 | Wilt thou not give him something better than dry bread and cold bacon for dinner in harvest? |
| 12000 | Wilt thou not make a morning- ward door in his dwelling and show him a future with a sun in it, in_ this_ world, as well as the world to come? |
| 12000 | Wilt thou not open up a pathway through the valley of his humiliation by which his children may ascend to the better conditions of society? |
| 12000 | Wilt thou not teach all his children to read the alphabet and the blessed syllables of the Great Revelation of God''s Love to man? |
| 16900 | 1? |
| 16900 | ATTITUDE OF THE SOILS TOWARDS WATER Which soils have the greater power to take in the rain which falls on their surface? |
| 16900 | Are these forces acting on the soil at the present time? |
| 16900 | As to the fourth question, How far do roots reach out sidewise or laterally from the plant? |
| 16900 | CHAPTER II ROOTS USES OF ROOTS TO PLANTS Of what use are roots to plants, or, what work do they perform for the plants? |
| 16900 | CHAPTER X SEED PLANTING HOW DEEP SHOULD SEEDS BE PLANTED? |
| 16900 | CHAPTER XIV STEMS WHAT ARE STEMS FOR? |
| 16900 | DRAINS How can we get rid of this surplus free water? |
| 16900 | Do these plants in any way resemble one another? |
| 16900 | Do they have any influence over the conditions which are favorable or unfavorable to plant growth? |
| 16900 | Examine the sand, clay and leaf mould, comparing them as to color; are they light or dark, are they moist or not? |
| 16900 | FUNCTION OR USE OF FLOWERS TO PLANTS Of what use is the flower to the plant? |
| 16900 | FUNCTIONS OF THE PARTS OF THE FLOWERS Now what are the uses of these parts of the flower? |
| 16900 | HOW DEEP SHALL WE PLOW? |
| 16900 | HOW WERE SOILS MADE? |
| 16900 | How can we bring about these conditions? |
| 16900 | How can we check this loss? |
| 16900 | How can we tell whether or not our seeds will sprout if properly planted? |
| 16900 | How deep do they penetrate the soil? |
| 16900 | How did the bean get up? |
| 16900 | How did the water get out of this soil? |
| 16900 | How did they manage to reach out into the soil so far from the plant? |
| 16900 | How do the roots do this work? |
| 16900 | How does continuous cotton culture affect the economics of the farm? |
| 16900 | How does cotton culture affect plant food in the soil? |
| 16900 | How does cotton growing affect soil humus? |
| 16900 | How does cotton growing affect soil texture? |
| 16900 | How does cotton growing affect soil ventilation? |
| 16900 | How does cotton growing affect soil water? |
| 16900 | How does the root take in moisture and food? |
| 16900 | How far do they reach out sidewise or laterally from the plant? |
| 16900 | How is the pollen carried from flower to flower? |
| 16900 | How may we check losses of heat from the soil? |
| 16900 | How much water does a plant transpire or throw off from its leaves? |
| 16900 | How near do they come to the surface of the soil? |
| 16900 | How near to the surface of the soil do you find roots? |
| 16900 | How shall I plant seeds so as to help them sprout easily and grow into strong plants? |
| 16900 | If so, can we control them in their action for the benefit or injury of plants? |
| 16900 | If the soil of our farm is largely clay, what happens to the rain that falls on it? |
| 16900 | In answer to the question,"Why is this?" |
| 16900 | Is a knowledge of these facts we have learned about roots of any value to the farmer? |
| 16900 | Is free water good for the roots of farm plants? |
| 16900 | Is it of any value to the plant grower to know these facts about leaves? |
| 16900 | Is this fact of any value to the farmer? |
| 16900 | Many times the questions will be asked: Why did n''t those seeds come up? |
| 16900 | Now is it possible that soil water may be lost or wasted and if so can we check the loss? |
| 16900 | Now what is the relation of the different kinds of soil toward heat or what are their relative powers to absorb and hold heat? |
| 16900 | Now why is this? |
| 16900 | Of what value is it to the farmer to know that many of the roots of his farm plants come very near the surface of the soil? |
| 16900 | Of what value is it to the farmer to know that the roots of farm plants penetrate to depths of five or six feet in the soil? |
| 16900 | Or where does the root grow in length? |
| 16900 | Or which soils will keep moist longest in dry weather? |
| 16900 | SOURCES OF SOIL WATER From what sources does the soil receive water? |
| 16900 | The next thing to find out is: What conditions are necessary for the root to do its work? |
| 16900 | The question was this: Of what value is it to the farmer to know that roots enter the soil to a depth of three to six feet? |
| 16900 | The second question,"How deep do the roots penetrate the soil?" |
| 16900 | Then, in studying our plants, which part shall we study first? |
| 16900 | To the first question,"In what part of the soil are most of the roots?" |
| 16900 | WHY DO WE SPADE AND PLOW? |
| 16900 | What are the reasons for these facts? |
| 16900 | What becomes of this moisture? |
| 16900 | What can we do for our clay soils to help them to absorb the rain more rapidly? |
| 16900 | What can we do for our sandy soils to give them greater power to take moisture from below? |
| 16900 | What can we do for our sandy soils to help them to hold better the moisture which falls on them and tends to leach through them? |
| 16900 | What effect will such a system have on the conditions necessary for plant growth? |
| 16900 | What has become of the fresh air that was in the bottles when the seeds were put in them? |
| 16900 | What is plant food? |
| 16900 | What is the effect on plant food in the soil? |
| 16900 | When all is ready we will study the root system of each plant and answer these four questions: In what part of the soil are most of the roots? |
| 16900 | Where does this come from? |
| 16900 | Where does this come from? |
| 16900 | Which do you think is the most important group? |
| 16900 | Which part of any or all of these farm plants is of greatest importance to the plant itself? |
| 16900 | Which soils have greatest power to hold the water which enters them? |
| 16900 | Which soils have the greater power to absorb or pump moisture from below? |
| 16900 | Which soils have the greatest capacity for film water? |
| 16900 | Which soils will hold longest the water which they have absorbed? |
| 16900 | Why are sandy soils called warm soils and clay soils said to be cold? |
| 16900 | Why do n''t we plant corn in December? |
| 16900 | Why do not the seeds sprout easily in the bottle which is more than half full? |
| 16900 | Why do the trees in thick woods have most of the living branches and bear most of their leaves away up in the top of the tree? |
| 16900 | Why does the farmer raise these plants? |
| 16900 | Why is this? |
| 16900 | Why is this? |
| 16900 | Why is this? |
| 16900 | Why is this? |
| 16900 | Why is this? |
| 16900 | Why is this? |
| 16900 | Why not plant cotton in November? |
| 16900 | Why not plant melons in January? |
| 16900 | Why was the dry clay warmer than the dry sand? |
| 16900 | Why were the wet humus and clay cooler than the wet sand? |
| 16900 | Why? |
| 16900 | Why? |
| 43844 | A sort of living frontier? |
| 43844 | And Basque,said I,"you speak that also?" |
| 43844 | And do you say it? |
| 43844 | And how do your witches work? |
| 43844 | And it runs both ways along the ridge of the hill? |
| 43844 | And now,said the old gentleman, the poodle''s proprietor and instructor,"what does Madame Tetard do when Monsieur Tetard comes home late?" |
| 43844 | And so they all sleep here together? |
| 43844 | And what does he grow there? |
| 43844 | And what is your request? |
| 43844 | And why have n''t you? |
| 43844 | And you speak Spanish, too? |
| 43844 | Are there any young women witches? |
| 43844 | Are you mad, duke? |
| 43844 | As ours in England used to do-- by spell and charm? |
| 43844 | But do the Pyrenean wolves ever attack men? |
| 43844 | But if there come rain? |
| 43844 | But was not the experiment ever tried? |
| 43844 | But where is the inn? |
| 43844 | Could anything be more lucky? 43844 Did the power that formed the Adour intend its streams to be made use of to deprive an honest man of his daily bread? |
| 43844 | He sails to- day-- so; and the maiden''s name-- your niece''s name-- what is that? |
| 43844 | I can have a room? |
| 43844 | I suppose you are speaking Bearne? |
| 43844 | I suppose,I said to the clerk who showed me the works,"you have had many offers for that dog?" |
| 43844 | Is it not beautiful? |
| 43844 | Is there not the summer of St. John to come yet? |
| 43844 | Lady,said she to the Lady of Bearne,"did you ever see your father?" |
| 43844 | Monsieur,he said,"is an artist, or a poet?" |
| 43844 | Niniche,said the patriarch,"what does Monsieur Tetard do when he comes home late?" |
| 43844 | Or was it not,I asked, with hazy reminiscences of Juvenal floating about me,--"was it not a certain sewer-- the Cloaca Maxima, perhaps?" |
| 43844 | Rather unruly, I should suppose? |
| 43844 | That is a beautiful scarf,I said to the girl next me;"how much will they give you for making it?" |
| 43844 | The Landes people have, or had, other queer notions, as well as the witch ones? |
| 43844 | Tohua- Cohoa,he said;"it has a_ sacré tonnerre_ of a barbarous sound; has it any meaning?" |
| 43844 | Was water made to weave cloth? |
| 43844 | Well, and if you are, what then, eh? 43844 Well, now, did they ever do any harm to you?" |
| 43844 | What do you do with them? |
| 43844 | What do you think of that? |
| 43844 | What harvest? 43844 What made him think so?" |
| 43844 | Who are you? |
| 43844 | Why so? 43844 Why so?" |
| 43844 | Will you pay me?--ay or no? |
| 43844 | You mean the Mediterranean? |
| 43844 | Your niece,said the baron,"who comes hither from the town of Bordeaux to visit you, and whom I saw but yester even,--has she returned?" |
| 43844 | _ Mais, monsieur_, where should they come from, but from the sea? |
| 43844 | ''Will you let me try?'' |
| 43844 | Ah, well, what is this poor unhappy world coming to?" |
| 43844 | And meantime what was Jaques Fort doing in his new ship? |
| 43844 | And, after all, what could be expected? |
| 43844 | And, even if they were emblems, was not the point at issue the best gift-- not the best allegorical symbol? |
| 43844 | As I was getting out, M. Martin stopped me:"Wait,"he said,"and we will drive into the house-- don''t you see how big the door is?" |
| 43844 | As Quin used to say,"Anybody drink port? |
| 43844 | As we talked, he inquired whether I were not a foreigner-- an Englishman-- and, with some hesitation, but with great eagerness-- a Protestant? |
| 43844 | But what claim has it to beauty? |
| 43844 | But who-- our friends the Russians, and their cousins the Esquimaux excepted-- could possibly be jolly over the idea of oil? |
| 43844 | Can you see a valley or a ravine just over the olive there? |
| 43844 | Could I believe my eyes? |
| 43844 | Could it set without a sub- prefect? |
| 43844 | Could the planets shine on France unless they were furnished with passports for the firmament? |
| 43844 | Could the rain on France unless each drop came armed with the_ visé_ of some wonderful bureau or other? |
| 43844 | Could the sun rise without a prefect? |
| 43844 | Did you ever see such odd fish? |
| 43844 | Do you know the meaning of Masdeu? |
| 43844 | Do you wish sweet liqueur wines from Italy and the Levant? |
| 43844 | Do you wish to make new Claret old? |
| 43844 | How comes this? |
| 43844 | However-- were there many handloom weavers like himself in England? |
| 43844 | I asked again, then, how the poor people remained in such a hot- bed of pestilence? |
| 43844 | I was not a native of this part of France? |
| 43844 | Learn Basque, indeed!--_Mon Dieu, monsieur!_ Do n''t you know that the Devil once tried, and was obliged to give it up for a bad job? |
| 43844 | No? |
| 43844 | Not a native of France at all? |
| 43844 | Now, I would put this question to Olympus:--How could the olive or the horse be emblems before they were created? |
| 43844 | Now, what must be the common sense of a country which permits, for one instant, the continuance of this wretched little tyrannical humbug? |
| 43844 | Of course I knew her? |
| 43844 | Our wine-- bah!--what is it? |
| 43844 | Perhaps from across the sea? |
| 43844 | The Baron Armand turned to Klosso:"Does he speak truth?" |
| 43844 | The Breton, who shot extraordinary well with a cross- bow, says to him,''Would you like to have that porter killed at a shot?'' |
| 43844 | The diligences had stopped running for the season; but what of that? |
| 43844 | The people of Nismes and Montpellier were afraid of the fever; and even if they were not, why should they come there? |
| 43844 | Then I came from some place far away? |
| 43844 | Then recovering himself, he inquired triumphantly whether I meant to say that the process of grinding corn was like the process of weaving cloth? |
| 43844 | Then the cavalier, trembling with anxiety, exclaimed:"What fountain is this?" |
| 43844 | Then why did not the farmers use spade- husbandry? |
| 43844 | Was the house shut up? |
| 43844 | Well, then, how could the vintage begin until the people, who know nothing about the vintage, command it? |
| 43844 | Were they not all French?--all the children of a king of France? |
| 43844 | What could they find to occupy them among these drear pine- woods? |
| 43844 | What harvest?" |
| 43844 | What should the tide of progress or of improvement do in these deserts of pine and sand? |
| 43844 | What thief, who had not made a vow of voluntary starvation, or who had not a morbid taste for living upon resin, would ever have ventured among them? |
| 43844 | What was one to do? |
| 43844 | What would France be without_ les autorités_? |
| 43844 | Where have you seen such a landscape before? |
| 43844 | Where, indeed, in France will you not? |
| 43844 | Who built these gloriously fretted Gothic towers, rising high into the air, and sentinelled by so many minor steeples? |
| 43844 | Who could resist this last attraction? |
| 43844 | Who was the doughty warrior, thus resting in his mail? |
| 43844 | Who will give us francs? |
| 43844 | Who would have the heart to prescribe cold political economy in such a case? |
| 43844 | cried the baron;"but who is the rascal with her?" |
| 43844 | did they weave by water- power there, too? |
| 43844 | said Armand;"you come without being called?" |
| 43844 | said he of Bordeaux;"you do n''t expect to find French in this chaos? |
| 43844 | said the baron;"and to whom?" |
| 43844 | were the folks as bad as some of the people in his country? |
| 43844 | what is that?" |
| 43844 | what see I?" |
| 32863 | Can she_ bake_? |
| 32863 | What,says the cottager,"has all this to do with hogs and bacon?" |
| 32863 | _ Can you milk?_He could not; but_ would learn_! |
| 32863 | And how, then, is it possible, that unwholesomeness should distil from the udder of a cow? |
| 32863 | And is not a fourth, or even an eighth, part of this weight, sufficient to go down the throats of a family in a year? |
| 32863 | And now, how are these to be had_ upon the same ground that bears_ the cabbages? |
| 32863 | And ought not this to be a lesson to fathers and mothers of families? |
| 32863 | And what is the_ result_? |
| 32863 | And what is there worthy of the name of_ plague_, or_ trouble_, in all this? |
| 32863 | And what should we see at last, if this infernal THING could continue for only a few years longer? |
| 32863 | And whence does it come? |
| 32863 | And, pray, what can be pleasanter to_ behold_? |
| 32863 | And, shall a starving man be hanged, then, if he take a loaf to save himself from dying? |
| 32863 | And_ why_ are they not to be deemed unmerciful? |
| 32863 | Are there twenty- two square miles covered with the Wen''s market gardens? |
| 32863 | Are we not to despise a_ thief_? |
| 32863 | Beset with wants, having a mind continually harassed with fears of starvation, who can act with energy, who can calmly think? |
| 32863 | Besides this, however, why should we not_ export_ the articles of this manufacture? |
| 32863 | But has not Nature made the country girls as pretty as ladies? |
| 32863 | But, after all, what need had we of any_ authorities_? |
| 32863 | But, at any rate, is the salary of the"ASSISTANT OVERSEER"necessary? |
| 32863 | But, how stands these matters now? |
| 32863 | But, if a_ part_ of the ancient law remain, shall not the_ whole_ of it remain? |
| 32863 | But, if such be her state in the house of an employer, what is her state in the house of a_ husband_? |
| 32863 | But, was it_ possible_ to believe this? |
| 32863 | But, why so good, so generous, to FELONS? |
| 32863 | Can any man, who knows any thing of the labourer''s life, deny this? |
| 32863 | Can any reasonable creature believe, that, to save the soul, God requires us to give up the food necessary to sustain the body? |
| 32863 | Can it be_ religion_ to regard as blessings those things, those very things, which God expressly numbers amongst his curses? |
| 32863 | Can not that be dispensed with? |
| 32863 | Did Saint Paul preach this? |
| 32863 | FIRST, where are_ we_ to get the_ Indian Meal_? |
| 32863 | He, who, while he spread the gospel abroad,_ worked himself_, in order to have it to give to those who were unable to work? |
| 32863 | How should it be otherwise? |
| 32863 | How should they? |
| 32863 | How, then, are they to contend against Irish butter and Dutch butter and cheese? |
| 32863 | How, then, are we to reconcile this with_ morality_? |
| 32863 | How, then, could the Wen be supplied, if it required_ ten rods_ to each family? |
| 32863 | If she can neither bake nor brew; if she be ignorant of the nature of flour, yeast, malt, and hops, what is she good for? |
| 32863 | If you add five of these pounds to a woman''s wages, is not that full as well employed as giving it in wages to the baker''s men? |
| 32863 | Is it not better employed for you? |
| 32863 | Is it not better than time spent in the ale- house, or in creeping about after a miserable hare? |
| 32863 | Is not this state of things perfectly monstrous? |
| 32863 | Is that nothing? |
| 32863 | It is_ labour_; but, what is_ exercise_ other than labour? |
| 32863 | It may be asked, Where is the mill to be found? |
| 32863 | Law is always law: if one part of the law may be, with impunity, set at defiance, why not another and every other part of the law? |
| 32863 | Must he have as much as_ all the widows_, or_ all the old men_? |
| 32863 | Needs there any thing more to make us cease to wonder at seeing labourers''children with dirty linen and holes in the heels of their stockings? |
| 32863 | No poor- laws? |
| 32863 | No poor- rates? |
| 32863 | No_ select vestries_? |
| 32863 | Now, how much garden ground does it require to supply even a large family with_ garden vegetables_? |
| 32863 | Now, is not this an enormous evil? |
| 32863 | Now, then, how fare the prisoners in the jails? |
| 32863 | Now, with what show of justice can these laws be maintained? |
| 32863 | Ought not they to consider that the habits which they give their children are to stick by those children during their whole lives? |
| 32863 | Stop the exchange between Leghorn and Yorkshire, and, does Yorkshire_ lose part of its custom_? |
| 32863 | Surely that Lancashire can never be_ in England_?" |
| 32863 | The answer is, Where is there not a mill? |
| 32863 | The question was, then, would these precious seeds_ grow and produce plants in perfection in England_? |
| 32863 | There is no farmer who does not at least fifty days in every year exclaim, when he gets up in the morning,"What shall I set_ them_ at to- day?" |
| 32863 | These last are right; but what have these things to do with the treatment of the poor? |
| 32863 | To be without sure and safe friends in the world makes life not worth having; and whom can we be so sure of as of our children? |
| 32863 | Was not this father discharging his duty by this boy much better than he would have been by sending him to a place called a_ school_? |
| 32863 | What do we want more than this to convince us, that the main body of the people have been_ impoverished_ by the"Reformation?" |
| 32863 | What have these things to do with the horrid facts relative to the condition and starvation of English people? |
| 32863 | What is it, then, that they_ do_ with the eighty rods of ground in a private garden? |
| 32863 | What is the object of Government? |
| 32863 | What need had we even of_ reason_ upon the subject? |
| 32863 | What reason have we, then, to presume, that our children are not to do the same? |
| 32863 | What shall we see next? |
| 32863 | What then will people not do, who regularly undertake the business for their livelihood? |
| 32863 | What would he have said? |
| 32863 | What_ is it_, then? |
| 32863 | What_ justice_ is there, then, in calling upon this man to take up arms and_ risk his life_ in the_ defence of the land_: what is the land to him? |
| 32863 | Where can that_ Hampshire_ be? |
| 32863 | Where is the justice of the peace? |
| 32863 | Where is there such a man, who can not trace to this cause a very considerable part of all the mortifications and sufferings of his life? |
| 32863 | Where, amidst all this starvation, is the overseer? |
| 32863 | Who would think himself safe, if at the_ mercy_ of such a man? |
| 32863 | Why do they take care to have it then? |
| 32863 | Why should any one have such desire? |
| 32863 | Why, you would say, to be sure,"Where is the LAW; where are the constables, the justices, the juries, the judges, the sheriffs, and the hangmen? |
| 32863 | Why_ buy_ this, when you can_ grow_ it in your garden? |
| 32863 | With what satisfaction will they learn that straw, twenty times as durable, to say nothing of the beauty, is to be got from every hedge? |
| 32863 | _ Abundant food_ is the main thing; and what is there that a rabbit will_ not eat_? |
| 32863 | and is it not better employed for the community? |
| 32863 | are there_ no poor- laws_ in Lancashire? |
| 32863 | duty on that straw, and to have it platted here; and that it would_ not answer_ to turn into plat straw of just the same sort grown in England? |
| 32863 | where is the wheat to be got? |
| 32863 | where is there not a market? |
| 18298 | After the nets have been withdrawn, what is it worth? |
| 18298 | Again, can the fact of the weir which had a wall of this bottom- ice three feet high in a single night, be accounted for by radiation? |
| 18298 | Again, why should the magistrates in quarter sessions( nine- tenths of whom know nothing of Salmon or Salmon rivers) choose the conservators? |
| 18298 | An intelligent friend of mine, now in India, says that the pod of cotton is overhung by a brown leaf( bractea? |
| 18298 | And if these objections really exist, then do they not equally exist in the rivers of Australia and Tasmania? |
| 18298 | And is not the Salmon question one of public policy? |
| 18298 | And why should not a man be allowed to fish with a rod and line below the weir, and as near to it as he chooses? |
| 18298 | Are either of these leisters? |
| 18298 | Are not gamekeepers as likely to need looking after as mill- owners? |
| 18298 | Are the parties who saw these eggs quite certain that the fish was an Eel and not a Lamprey? |
| 18298 | Are there any Salmon in North America, in any river( not a tributary of the St. Lawrence), south of that river? |
| 18298 | As the net would not take a fish of less than two pounds, how many had passed through it? |
| 18298 | Besides, did any one ever succeed in hatching the ova of a fish which had not been allowed to come in contact with milt after exclusion? |
| 18298 | Besides, what is your object? |
| 18298 | But how had they learnt the way? |
| 18298 | But would not the theory of the decomposition of carbon do quite as well? |
| 18298 | Can not the Royal Agricultural Society offer a premium for a short- strawed wheat of good quality? |
| 18298 | Can not this be prevented? |
| 18298 | Can you inform me what it is that causes the land to be clover- sick? |
| 18298 | Did you ever use woollen rags as manure? |
| 18298 | Do any of the rivers of China( not Chinese Tartary) contain Salmon? |
| 18298 | Do any of the rivers on the west coast of America below the latitude of 40 degrees N. contain Salmon? |
| 18298 | Do none of the great agriculturists themselves see how desirable such a wheat would be for the agriculture of this country? |
| 18298 | Do you mean to do away with these? |
| 18298 | Do you mean to prohibit the trammel, which is usually a treble and not a double net? |
| 18298 | Does Salmo Salar think that one ton and a tenth of Smolts go down the river Hodder to the sea on an average of years? |
| 18298 | Does it not directly or indirectly flow into a river or the sea? |
| 18298 | Does it throw any light upon the new manure for which he is said to be taking out a patent? |
| 18298 | Does not this include common Trout? |
| 18298 | Has it been observed by naturalists that spiders eat their own webs? |
| 18298 | Has it been tried? |
| 18298 | He says his pond is fifty miles from the sea;"therefore, how is it that these little Eels get no larger in their long and tedious journey? |
| 18298 | How could such hecks or grates be prevented from choking with leaves in the autumn and ice in the winter, thus stopping the wheels? |
| 18298 | How, then, are the repairs of shafting and machinery to be made? |
| 18298 | I mean, is the evaporation from its surface equal to the supply of water? |
| 18298 | I said,"John, did you never hear of a man gathering the stones off his field, and then having to lead them back again?" |
| 18298 | I said,"What does manuring land mean, but putting something into it of which it is deficient? |
| 18298 | I said,"What is your objection to it, John?" |
| 18298 | If it is the abstraction of something from the soil, what is that something? |
| 18298 | If neither a series of Scotch nets nor a single trammel is to be used, by what sort of net do you propose to catch the Salmon? |
| 18298 | If not, where does the surplus go to? |
| 18298 | If not, why not? |
| 18298 | If these precautions are unnecessary, why go to such expense? |
| 18298 | If they have, when, where, and how has this been accomplished, and where is it recorded? |
| 18298 | If this is doubted, I would ask how it happens that in the autumn they have fluid milt in them? |
| 18298 | If you are a believer in humus, what is it composed of, and how does it act in forwarding vegetation? |
| 18298 | If you had twenty shillings in your pocket, and I filled it up with these cobble- stones, how much poorer would you be? |
| 18298 | Is he sure they have taken none this season? |
| 18298 | Is it surprising that the upper proprietors are not satisfied with this state of things? |
| 18298 | Is there no escape of water from it? |
| 18298 | It is true we have had none this winter, but when shall we have such another? |
| 18298 | It is true, many Wrens''nests may be found in which there are no feathers; but did you ever find either eggs or young ones in them? |
| 18298 | It may be asked, Where can a short- strawed wheat of good quality be procured? |
| 18298 | It may be asked, who is the man who obtrudes his opinions on the colony unasked, and what can be his motives? |
| 18298 | It may be said, How do you know that one of the three or four varieties of Smolts which you describe further on, is not the fry of the Mort? |
| 18298 | Let this be applied to plants: are we to suppose that the plant assimilates all that is absorbed by its roots and leaves? |
| 18298 | Need we be surprised, then, if the breed decreases? |
| 18298 | No doubt he may have done so, but did he catch them of the thickness of a crow''s quill, and three inches long? |
| 18298 | Now, what takes place under such circumstances? |
| 18298 | Of what have I robbed this field by putting gravel into it?" |
| 18298 | On what subject is it? |
| 18298 | Or, what is the value of black fish full of spawn? |
| 18298 | P.S.--Am I to suppose that you have abandoned the idea of manuring an acre of wheat for thirteen shillings? |
| 18298 | Recurring again to the quantity of manure necessary to grow thirty- six bushels of wheat, I would ask, why limit yourself to so small a crop? |
| 18298 | Secondly, whether they offer a prize for the introduction of Salmon fry; and if so, what is the amount offered? |
| 18298 | T. says further there is also room for inquiry into another curious subject-- do Eels return to fresh water after having gone to the sea for spawning? |
| 18298 | Then how are the fisheries in the estuary and just above tideway to be valued? |
| 18298 | There is on my part no objection to this examination, but why are millowners stigmatized by being subjected to exceptional legislation? |
| 18298 | Thirdly, whether they offer a prize for the introduction of fertilized ova of Salmon or Trout, and what is the amount? |
| 18298 | True, but what are they worth? |
| 18298 | What did they give the upper proprietors on the Ribble and the Hodder last season? |
| 18298 | What do you understand by humus? |
| 18298 | What is this but an encouragement to do so again? |
| 18298 | What would become of all the spawn deposited there? |
| 18298 | What would they care about the matter? |
| 18298 | What, for instance, would the magistrates meeting at Wakefield know of the Ribble or the Hodder? |
| 18298 | Where are the originals of our wheat, barley, rye, beans, and peas? |
| 18298 | Where does the water flow to, and for what is this sill? |
| 18298 | Who beside Mr. Boccius ever saw Eel- fry in a pond which had no communication with a river? |
| 18298 | Who knows whether the_ Furia Infernalis_ is anything else than a murderous Mrs. Harris-- at all events, who has seen one, and what was it like? |
| 18298 | Who saw the eggs from which Mr. Boccius produced living Eels? |
| 18298 | Who saw the fish from which those thousands of eggs were extracted at the time this dissection was made? |
| 18298 | Whose authority have you for this? |
| 18298 | Why do you think that the water in pools is never still enough to allow it to get below 32 degrees without freezing on still clear nights? |
| 18298 | Will G. H. be kind enough to say whether he does not catch his about the same time? |
| 18298 | Will Mr. Rennie condescend to enlighten me? |
| 18298 | Will raising the average produce from twenty- five to fifty bushels per acre be the utmost limit to which improvement can be carried? |
| 18298 | Will you allow me to ask whether you ever personally saw ice at the bottom of a pond when there was none on the surface? |
| 18298 | Will you have the kindness to say what was the amount offered? |
| 18298 | Would a dissection of the Conger at various seasons throw any light on the propagation of Eels? |
| 18298 | Would it not be better to expressly insist upon all cruive fisheries being positively closed from sunset to sunrise? |
| 18298 | Would it not be better to limit your intentions to all migratory fish of the Salmon kind, to wit, Salmon, Grilse,& c.& c.? |
| 18298 | and if not, in what respect did it differ? |
| 18298 | and if so, under what circumstances? |
| 18298 | and if they are necessary for hares and birds, may they not be also for fish? |
| 18298 | and what time did they give within which they would pay for a successful attempt? |
| 18298 | and will he also state whether he does not catch them principally after heavy rains have increased the flow of water out of the pond? |
| 18298 | for as nature makes no unnecessary provisions, for what purpose is this, if not to provide for the possibility of a female Salmon coming alone? |
| 18298 | of the rate? |
| 18298 | washed down the drains by the rain, and so lost for ever? |
| 18298 | which did not enter into the composition of the plant? |
| 18298 | who were the parties who made themselves responsible for the payment? |
| 18298 | will he also say whether the Eels he catches are not Silver Eels? |
| 21657 | An''why not me? 21657 And how long have they been at it already? |
| 21657 | And lose a cent a bushel while they''re turning around, eh? |
| 21657 | But why should we build up another man''s paper for him? |
| 21657 | Can the export part of our business be developed successfully with a little more time? |
| 21657 | Can they succeed? 21657 Did he get you, Pete?" |
| 21657 | Did these Grain Growers fight the elevator combine of the early days in order that they could establish a Farmers''Combine? 21657 Farmers''company"they called it, eh? |
| 21657 | How can we change the information on such short notice? |
| 21657 | Is Christ to develop the individuals and Carl Marx mobilize and lead them? |
| 21657 | Is Christ to hew the stones and Henry George build them into the finished edifice? 21657 Know anything about him?" |
| 21657 | ME? 21657 Not even to supply the farmers who do n''t belong to our Association?" |
| 21657 | Of course you got it? |
| 21657 | Qu''appelle? 21657 Remember when I went up to Russell, during their Fair in October, to tell them what the Exchange was trying to do to us? |
| 21657 | Tell Wilson, if you see him, that Peter Dayman and I are expecting him over next week, will you? 21657 Then what about the wholesaler?" |
| 21657 | What I want to know is, how long ought it to take to load up this whole boatload we''re trying to move? |
| 21657 | What about that company? |
| 21657 | What about that, Kennedy? 21657 What are we to do?" |
| 21657 | What brings you over this way? 21657 What d''you mean, talkin''like that?" |
| 21657 | What do you want us to do? 21657 What do_ you_ mean, talking like that? |
| 21657 | What is the next order of business? |
| 21657 | What''n the mischief do you expect to gain by that sort of thing? |
| 21657 | What''s wrong? |
| 21657 | Where would the British Army be as a disorganized army confronting the Germans? 21657 Where''n the mischief are you going, John?" |
| 21657 | Who calls? |
| 21657 | Who is that fellow, anyway? |
| 21657 | Who said anything about quitting? |
| 21657 | Why ca n''t we get out a journal for ourselves? |
| 21657 | Why ca n''t we get out a little journal like that? |
| 21657 | Why do n''t they practice what they preach and give the country merchant a square deal? 21657 Why do n''t they take their time and do their trading more quietly and systematically?" |
| 21657 | Why must I feed and clothe and buy the smokes for so many of these middlemen? |
| 21657 | With guns, if necessary? |
| 21657 | Would he pay one hundred and seventy- five thousand dollars to the line elevator and stand a dockage of one hundred thousand bushels in addition? 21657 Would the owner of ten million bushels peddle his wheat by the wagonload at the local shipping point or by the carload in Winnipeg?" |
| 21657 | --would you? |
| 21657 | After the war is won-- what? |
| 21657 | Ai n''t that where we''re gettin''it_ now_?" |
| 21657 | An''if I know that many in my territory, W. R., how many d''you suppose there are if we take in Manitoba and clean through to the mountains?" |
| 21657 | An''say, what about a coal mine, too?" |
| 21657 | An''what''s more----""The Royal Mounted stood for law and order, Bob; but you''d class yourself with the half- breeds, would you? |
| 21657 | And what came of it all? |
| 21657 | And what had the elevator men to say about all this? |
| 21657 | And what is that objective? |
| 21657 | Are our shareholders and friends going to take the bribe that is meant to put us out of business? |
| 21657 | At the present rate of speed another three years would see them in control of the grain business and was that good for the grain business? |
| 21657 | But do you know what your overdraft amounts to now?" |
| 21657 | But if the small dealers on the Exchange were aroused, what about the farmers''trading company? |
| 21657 | But this concern in the grain business-- run by a few men, was n''t it? |
| 21657 | But what about the seat on the Grain Exchange? |
| 21657 | But what? |
| 21657 | But would they? |
| 21657 | But you know that big flock of sheep down in the back pasture? |
| 21657 | CHAPTER IX THE GRAIN EXCHANGE AGAIN"How many tables, Janet, are there in the Law?" |
| 21657 | CHAPTER XIV THE INTERNAL ELEVATOR CAMPAIGN What constitutes a state? |
| 21657 | Could n''t some way be devised of sidestepping such pitfalls? |
| 21657 | Did these farmers get what they wanted? |
| 21657 | Do you wonder that the great evolution of farming methods should lead to advanced thought upon the issues of the day? |
| 21657 | Does a creed like this spell class legislation? |
| 21657 | Doggone your hide, Mac, what''re you trying to do?--Stir up another rebellion like that of''85?" |
| 21657 | Everything going alright?" |
| 21657 | Fifteen hundred dollars? |
| 21657 | Five days, ai n''t it? |
| 21657 | Go easy on''em for awhile, will you?" |
| 21657 | Had not their fathers been successful farmers? |
| 21657 | Had they not raised a family of eight or ten or a dozen or more without belonging to any organization?--educated them, too? |
| 21657 | Have you ever been at sea with not a thing in sight but water, sky, horizon? |
| 21657 | Have you forgotten? |
| 21657 | How did this come about? |
| 21657 | How did we get the Royal Commission except by those letters and meetings? |
| 21657 | How long would the farmers stand behind the company in the face of the competition that would be brought to bear? |
| 21657 | How would it be if I wrote him a letter about it?" |
| 21657 | How? |
| 21657 | If not, what lies back of it? |
| 21657 | If the owner of ten thousand bushels was able to make a better bargain than the owner of one thousand, what about the owner of ten million bushels? |
| 21657 | If the producer was getting full value for his wheat why should the Grain Exchange be interfered with? |
| 21657 | If they win, what will be the national effect? |
| 21657 | If you''re serious in what you say----""I said I was, did n''t I?" |
| 21657 | In opposition to an awakened national interest what chance is there going to be for the silent partnerships of"invisible government"? |
| 21657 | In the meantime where is the wheat? |
| 21657 | In these days of revolutionary thought who shall set the length and width of the Farmers''field of influence, therefore? |
| 21657 | Is it to be co- operation in all sincerity or class warfare? |
| 21657 | Is nobody else to have a right to live?" |
| 21657 | Is one any better than the other?" |
| 21657 | Just because I''ve worn the Queen''s uniform, eh? |
| 21657 | Just where lie the boundaries of the impossible and who shall define them? |
| 21657 | Let them join us or go twineless"? |
| 21657 | Mean to say we''re no farther ahead? |
| 21657 | Now, is all this preaching of the men who are leading the farmers just so much talk?--chaff?--prairie wind? |
| 21657 | Now, what about the country elevators for government control of which the farmers had campaigned so vigorously in the three Prairie Provinces? |
| 21657 | On the other hand, is the man who has the cash to receive no consideration? |
| 21657 | One of them was a son of the first elevator man to whom he had gone and, said he:"The Old Man gave you a knockdown for it, did n''t he?" |
| 21657 | Only the humming of that confounded flying- machine up there-- Can''t somebody bring down that Mail- Order bird? |
| 21657 | Or would you just proceed to swear-- naturally, successfully, in what is known as"flowing"language? |
| 21657 | Qu''appelle?" |
| 21657 | Remember the old shiny black mohair sofa and the wheezy, yellow- keyed melodeon or the little roller hand- organ that used to play"Old Hundred"? |
| 21657 | Same thing, ai n''t it? |
| 21657 | So McNair was another of them, eh? |
| 21657 | So what''s the use o''talkin''?" |
| 21657 | Spencer?" |
| 21657 | That put the Manitoba Grain Act on the statutes, did n''t it? |
| 21657 | The elevator people have put a lot of money-- Say, why ca n''t we organize, too?" |
| 21657 | The first question flung back at them naturally would be:"Then your''Board of Control''does n''t control, eh?" |
| 21657 | The little boy believes that the cow really did jump over the moon; for is n''t it right there in the nursery book with a picture of her doing it? |
| 21657 | The red figure 5 has gone out and 7/8 has in turn vanished in favor of 5/8--1/2--3/8--4--(?) |
| 21657 | The remedy? |
| 21657 | Think you that in the crucible which bares the very souls of men those boys have any thought of class criticism or of selfish grabbings? |
| 21657 | Was it good for the farmer? |
| 21657 | Well, say, does a cat go by a saucer of cream without taking a lick? |
| 21657 | Were not these producers of the world''s bread themselves to partake of the fruits of their labor? |
| 21657 | What about British Columbia? |
| 21657 | What about it?" |
| 21657 | What about the homesteader or the poorer farmer who is starting on meagre resources? |
| 21657 | What about the times of poor crops and money scarcity? |
| 21657 | What can we do?" |
| 21657 | What d''you suppose that means?" |
| 21657 | What do you say?" |
| 21657 | What does it matter except that the people shall grant to their leaders their sympathy and co- operation in the cares of crisis? |
| 21657 | What in heaven''s name would they do with them after they got them? |
| 21657 | What is to be the final outcome of the Western farmers''revolt and its spread to rural communities in Eastern provinces? |
| 21657 | What''s up now?" |
| 21657 | What? |
| 21657 | Where would the farmer have been if the country merchant had not carried him on the books for the necessities of life?" |
| 21657 | Who is to give it to them if business is put on a cash basis? |
| 21657 | Who was this mysterious"Observer"? |
| 21657 | Who''s there, i''the name of Beelzebub? |
| 21657 | Who, pray, were the"Territorial Grain Growers''Association"? |
| 21657 | Why ca n''t I do it with what I need to buy?" |
| 21657 | Why could n''t the farmers themselves form a company to undertake the marketing of their own wheat? |
| 21657 | Why was he going to so much trouble as to launch a systematic campaign? |
| 21657 | Would he forget the conditions of the early days and grab for a present saving of five or ten dollars per car? |
| 21657 | Would he pay the terminal elevator seventy- five thousand dollars''worth of screenings? |
| 21657 | Would the farmer be"unable to see past his nose,"as was predicted? |

| 20772 | SECTION V. DRAINING THE SOIL A wise man was once asked,"What is the most valuable improvement ever made in agriculture?" |
| 20772 | Should a colt be fed on one kind of forage when the land that produced that forage would produce twice as much equally good forage of another kind? |
| 20772 | Should bees be kept in an orchard? |
| 20772 | Should not his past failures and his past triumphs decide his future? |
| 20772 | Should not this fact suggest efforts to raise just as good crops without having to buy so much fertilizer? |
| 20772 | Since the water which a plant uses comes through the roots, can the morning dew afford any assistance? |
| 20772 | THE MOISTURE OF THE SOIL Did any one ever explain to you how important water is to the soil, or tell you why it is so important? |
| 20772 | There are two questions that the dairy farmer should always ask himself: Am I feeding as cheaply as I can? |
| 20772 | WHICH WILL YOU RAISE?] |

| 20772 | Why? |

| 31373 | Are these girls really Americans at heart? 31373 Are you quite sure,"said Fillmore Flagg,"that her father is dead?" |
| 31373 | At this point, it is pertinent to propound the following questions: If this is a Republic? 31373 But, says the objector, are not these mostly alkali lands? |
| 31373 | Can a Josiah Strong answer these questions? 31373 Can we teach politics to school children, as a part of our religious duties? |
| 31373 | Did I understand you to say that these immense discs, these mammoth, weed- scorching mirrors, were made here at Solaris? 31373 Does this exhibit appeal to you as a reasonable basis for the accumulated savings named in your questions?" |
| 31373 | First, I wish you would tell me just what is represented by the one thousand shares of capital stock, of the Solaris Farm Company? |
| 31373 | How can this happen? 31373 How do you do, Mr. Flagg? |
| 31373 | How is it possible, you ask, to keep perfect control of such a large issue of scrip, with a certainty that all in use is genuine? 31373 How much land do you devote to cotton growing? |
| 31373 | In this connection, let me ask: Have you ever had a seance with a medium? 31373 My dear Fillmore,"said Fern,"How are you impressed by my scheme for carrying out the chosen plans? |
| 31373 | Now Fillmore,said Fern,"I wish to ask, what have you been doing in the department of experimental farming?" |
| 31373 | Speaking of wages,said George Gaylord,"did I understand you to say, that all of the co- operators at Solaris receive the same pay?" |
| 31373 | Tell me, George,said Fillmore Flagg,"how have you fared since we parted, and what are your ambitions and plans for the future?" |
| 31373 | Tell me, Mr. Flagg, why are you so much interested in that advertisement which came to me so unceremoniously yesterday? 31373 What are the best conditions for mind unfoldment? |
| 31373 | What is a trust? 31373 What is that question, which so completely absorbs the attention of these people? |
| 31373 | What think you, Mr. Gaylord? 31373 Where can these conditions be found? |
| 31373 | Why can these land monopolists afford to wait so long? 31373 Will it pay?" |
| 31373 | You ask how can this coming disaster be averted? 31373 You ask what disposition has been made of this money? |
| 31373 | You ask, what disposition is made of the salaries of such co- operators as are elected to fill town and county offices? 31373 ''How to keep the farm lands of America in the hands of the native farmers of this and the coming generations? 31373 A last word to my readers: Do you wish to join forces with the humanitarians? 31373 Am I worthy of such a blessing? 31373 An overwhelming answer in the affirmative, from every point of view, to the question, does it pay to be unselfish? 31373 And again, tell me why you are so moved and determined to better the conditions of farm life? 31373 And if the consolidating business, is so good and so profitable for the trusts? 31373 And now, my dear Fillmore, since I have, so to speak, brought myself up to date for your benefit, may I ask for a similar service on your part? |
| 31373 | Are we waking or dreaming? |
| 31373 | Are you satisfied, my dear girl? |
| 31373 | Aside from my speculative fancies, I do wonder what the future has in store for him? |
| 31373 | At what age do you propose to retire the active workers?" |
| 31373 | But are you quite sure the facts will fully warrant your conclusions? |
| 31373 | But tell me, if I may be permitted to ask, who was the wonderful genius who first conceived and planned the building of this imposing line of arches? |
| 31373 | But what about the father? |
| 31373 | By the measure of immortality, who shall attempt to describe or limit the destiny of a human soul? |
| 31373 | By what remarkable process had she, in so short a time, achieved such commanding heights of intellectual and spiritual greatness? |
| 31373 | Can I add anything more convincing?" |
| 31373 | Can it be possible that I am to feel and know this by direct communication with them?" |
| 31373 | Can it be possible, that the pulsing energy of the protoplasmic life of the tree, is identical with that of man, and all other forms of cosmic life? |
| 31373 | Can it be possible, that they are farm laborers?" |
| 31373 | Can such a rotten society ever become a safe foundation for the government of a true republic? |
| 31373 | Can they be made to grow wheat, and thus increase the bread supply? |
| 31373 | Can we agree to accept new definitions, for the disputed religious terms, which we have been discussing?" |
| 31373 | Can you accept my proposal?" |
| 31373 | Can you evolve anything from your inner consciousness in answer to these questions?" |
| 31373 | Can you suggest anything that may be of assistance to me?" |
| 31373 | Can you suggest anything towards its solution?" |
| 31373 | Did she seem to blame you so very much, for not answering her mother''s letter?" |
| 31373 | Do the poor people, the farmers, the country land owners, and the working men, join in these shoutings? |
| 31373 | Do these arrangements suit your convenience? |
| 31373 | Do they meet your entire approval?" |
| 31373 | Do they represent the women of our land? |
| 31373 | Do you find homesickness among the colonists, a frequent cause of discontent?" |
| 31373 | Do you find it so?" |
| 31373 | Do you know anything about the laws that control and govern mediumship? |
| 31373 | Do you really consider it so very important?" |
| 31373 | Do you remember the promise I made to you, on the night of my transition? |
| 31373 | Do you think I am likely to prove a pupil worthy of his teacher?" |
| 31373 | Do you think a general introduction of co- operative farming, will produce equally successful results elsewhere?" |
| 31373 | Do you think she is really in love with Mr. Flagg? |
| 31373 | Do you think this road- building fever, will continue to spread with the growth of the movement?" |
| 31373 | Do you think you are strong enough to- day, for another mobile excursion over the farm?" |
| 31373 | Does each great throb of the planetary heart, re- energize and move in unison, the protoplasmic centers of all forms of life? |
| 31373 | Does the plan proposed meet your approval by offering satisfactory answers to your questions?" |
| 31373 | Has anything happened to her? |
| 31373 | Have I faithfully kept my promise?" |
| 31373 | Have you been interested to any extent in reading the all- comprehensive philosophy which mediumship demonstrates?" |
| 31373 | Have your objections, been satisfactorily answered? |
| 31373 | He heard these words:"Fern, my daughter, will you tell this gentleman who I am?" |
| 31373 | How can I ever properly thank you, my noble benefactor, for your great goodness to me; for your supreme confidence in my integrity? |
| 31373 | How can our people be saved from such a hopeless future? |
| 31373 | How can such expensive things be made, for a price that would allow so many to be used?" |
| 31373 | How can the Fairy Queen explain? |
| 31373 | How can this be accomplished? |
| 31373 | How can you answer that argument, from the co- operative standpoint?" |
| 31373 | How could he have an interview with her father, if Mrs. Bainbridge was correct in saying that Mr. Fenwick had been dead for several years? |
| 31373 | How did you manage to make it possible?" |
| 31373 | How do you manage to make it profitable to grow such a quantity of perishable things?" |
| 31373 | How has co- operative methods, affected its culture as a paying crop?" |
| 31373 | How has the example of Solaris farm, affected the industrial, social, and political situation in this town and county?" |
| 31373 | How is it, that the fields and cultivated grounds at Solaris, are so free from weeds?" |
| 31373 | How many arms, have the number fives? |
| 31373 | How many bodies, have the number nines? |
| 31373 | How many ears, have the number sevens? |

| 31373 | How much longer do you propose to remain here?" |
| 31373 | How to help them to help themselves?'' |
| 31373 | How will you dispose of it? |
| 31373 | How, and when shall we commence the plan making?" |
| 31373 | How, can you ever forgive me? |
| 31373 | I cried,''How can I do this work alone? |
| 31373 | I do wonder in what peculiar capacity you are to act, and who your real employer is to be? |
| 31373 | I see our friends returning from the lake, will you help me to spread the lunch?" |
| 31373 | I trust that you feel encouraged to go forward hopefully with the work?" |
| 31373 | If so, what are your plans and what have you been doing towards working out this puzzling question?" |
| 31373 | If so, what name shall I choose for it? |
| 31373 | If the people are the government, and the government is the people? |
| 31373 | In its formation what method shall I use? |
| 31373 | Is it a matter of wonder, that he unhesitatingly accorded to them, the distinction of being sacred? |
| 31373 | Is it not a most beautiful illustration, of the power of spirits to co- operate with mortals?" |
| 31373 | Is it not almost like a miracle?" |
| 31373 | Is it not one affecting the vital interests of humanity to a marvelous extent?" |
| 31373 | Is it then, under the circumstances, any wonder that the farmers''sons should become dissatisfied with the occupation of their birth? |
| 31373 | Is it wise, to devote so much time to teaching politics; and to commence this teaching with children so young? |
| 31373 | Is she here?" |
| 31373 | Is that to be postponed until we have finished the preliminary work, which you have outlined?" |
| 31373 | It is then that I ask of my soul: What am I? |
| 31373 | May I also congratulate you, on having so wisely chosen a husband, who is in every way worthy? |
| 31373 | May I hope, Miss Fenwick, that you will kindly consent to become my teacher in this new school of wonderful phenomena and spiritual law? |
| 31373 | May we hope that you both can come with us?" |
| 31373 | May we not make that co- operation more effective, by a closer study of the conditions that prevail, and of the laws which govern spirit life?" |
| 31373 | Must the sons and daughters of the farms of this republic come to the bitter heritage of such a life? |
| 31373 | Now that her studies were finished and her plans perfected, why not send for him to come to Fenwick Hall for a week''s vacation? |
| 31373 | Premising that my theory is true, how can you manage this matter at Solaris, in order to avoid trouble?" |
| 31373 | Question: Shall this society take the form of a club? |
| 31373 | Shall we not do well, if we devote a generous share of our honeymoon to the making, development and perfection of these plans?" |
| 31373 | Shall we walk through now?" |
| 31373 | Tell me, Fillmore, does the acceptance and advocacy of this view of the relations existing between labor and society, make one a socialist?" |
| 31373 | Tell me, is this the beginning of some reign of enchantment? |
| 31373 | Tell me; how is it possible for so large a sum to be saved in such a short time?" |
| 31373 | That he had been swallowed up by the sea? |
| 31373 | That the shipwreck had really occurred?" |
| 31373 | The culmination of love''s dream? |
| 31373 | To government of both state and nation? |
| 31373 | To what piece of good fortune, do I owe this unexpected visit? |
| 31373 | Was it possible that spiritual unfoldment alone, could confer such marvelous power? |
| 31373 | Were the desires, the ideas and the methods in conjunctive harmony with planetary evolution? |
| 31373 | Were you there, Fillmore?" |
| 31373 | What additional results, do you claim for the system?" |
| 31373 | What additional work, has Gertrude Gerrish planned for the club members?" |
| 31373 | What are these buildings, and for what purpose are they used?" |
| 31373 | What are those insects, and how did you manage to destroy them?" |
| 31373 | What atonement can I ever make, for the shame, the humiliation, the suffering, which I have brought into your life?'' |
| 31373 | What can I do? |
| 31373 | What do you think of it so far?" |
| 31373 | What does it mean? |
| 31373 | What has become of these values? |
| 31373 | What has she been doing with her magical wand to produce such delicious perfume; such entrancing music?" |
| 31373 | What have I done? |
| 31373 | What have you to tell me about stirpiculture, as a part of the co- operative farm movement?" |
| 31373 | What is the result? |
| 31373 | What miracle have you wrought for me, my precious one, that I am so happy? |
| 31373 | What of our coming conference with your father, Fennimore Fenwick? |
| 31373 | What problem in life so knotty that she could not solve? |
| 31373 | What shall I do? |
| 31373 | What sweet guardian spirit guides my life, that I should be made so exceedingly happy by the priceless love of such a beautiful woman? |
| 31373 | What then will happen to society? |
| 31373 | What then would have happened to our workers, the basic units of our government? |
| 31373 | What think you of these results?" |
| 31373 | What think you, Fillmore?" |
| 31373 | What think you, friend Gaylord?" |
| 31373 | What treatment may unorganized, unprotected labor, expect from this system? |
| 31373 | When you heard the voice from the trumpet, how could you feel so sure it was your father speaking? |
| 31373 | Where now is the injustice of equal wages? |
| 31373 | Where then, in the economy of nature, is there room or use for the doctrine of total depravity? |
| 31373 | Who shall say? |
| 31373 | Who so capable and so desirable as Fillmore Flagg? |
| 31373 | Why is it that these things have not been done before?" |
| 31373 | Why must this prove true? |
| 31373 | Why not change it for the co- operative system? |
| 31373 | Why not? |
| 31373 | Why not? |
| 31373 | Why should the business of the United States, support such an army of banks? |
| 31373 | Why should they live only to suffer? |
| 31373 | Why should they? |
| 31373 | Why, should it not own and operate the railroads, the canals, the shipping, the mines, the forests, and all other industries? |
| 31373 | Why, should not the government, own and run this giant central bank? |
| 31373 | Why? |
| 31373 | Will he ever reach that room? |
| 31373 | Will the lovely face of Fern Fenwick be the first to greet him? |
| 31373 | Will you be seated in the smaller chair near it? |
| 31373 | Will you do me the favor of considering yourself as pledged from this moment to take up my work? |
| 31373 | Will you not?" |
| 31373 | With the aid of such a matchless woman, how could he fail in the work before him? |
| 31373 | With this lesson before us, how can we hesitate or falter in our efforts to successfully carry forward this important work? |
| 31373 | Would he ever again experience another week so full of unalloyed happiness? |
| 31373 | Would it not be infinitely better, than to allow the government to be swallowed by one monster trust?" |
| 31373 | Would they dare to do such a thing?" |
| 31373 | You are perfectly satisfied with the arrangement, are you not?" |
| 31373 | You ask to what extent will the work affect the destiny of woman? |
| 31373 | and how were its smooth, worn sides so systematically engraved?" |
| 31373 | how formed? |
| 31373 | imagine for them, a purpose in life more noble or more worthy?" |
| 31373 | whence came this stranger rock? |
| 16525 | And my gardens, too? |
| 16525 | And will you sell it? |
| 16525 | Are n''t you going to credit anything to health, and good times generally? 16525 Are these things worth$ 100,000?" |
| 16525 | Are you really glad to get back to it? 16525 Break away, daughter, do you want a steam launch with your yacht?" |
| 16525 | But how about your friends, Polly? |
| 16525 | But how is one to know? 16525 But what about the boys, Polly?" |
| 16525 | But what if Anderson sets fire to your piggery, or lightning strikes your granary,--how about the expense account then? |
| 16525 | But, me friend Jarvis, what is this you have on your face? 16525 But, suppose the Company were in duty bound to do this thing for you, and suppose it should refuse; would that be a good reason for quitting work? |
| 16525 | Ca n''t you have a telephone put into the farm- house? 16525 Can you send more?" |
| 16525 | Country life fits us like paper on the wall,said I,"but how about the youngsters? |
| 16525 | Do you know how much it is? |
| 16525 | Do you like the plan? 16525 Do you mean that there are more pearls than swine, Mr. Jack? |
| 16525 | Do you mean the house alone? |
| 16525 | Do you think I could manage a farm? |
| 16525 | Do_ your_ pigs get lost when you are away? |
| 16525 | Does it come out just even$ 44,000? 16525 Finished the farm- house?" |
| 16525 | Fun comes high at this time of the year, does n''t it, Polly? |
| 16525 | Have they sowed the alfalfa and cut the oats? |
| 16525 | Have you decided to keep''dottes? 16525 Have you settled the moulds he is to be run in?" |
| 16525 | How about Jack? |
| 16525 | How are you going to seed the north forty? |
| 16525 | How do you figure values here? |
| 16525 | How does the contagion travel, Doctor? |
| 16525 | How long have you had that up your sleeve, young woman? 16525 How many cows are you going to milk?" |
| 16525 | How much do you want to spend for the house? |
| 16525 | How''s that? |
| 16525 | Jack, whom will you ask? 16525 Lonesome, is it? |
| 16525 | Now see here, old man, what would be the good of selling this factory for$ 100,000? 16525 Now, what would be the result if you struck on these robbers? |
| 16525 | Of these fifty, can we count on twenty- five pullets? |
| 16525 | Or the trees you''ve planted? |
| 16525 | Polly, how much is 16- 1/2 times 320? |
| 16525 | See here, boys, do n''t you see that you''re sending your noble Swede to his Lutzen before his time,--not dead, indeed, but dead drunk? 16525 Sir Tom,"said I,"shall I send for a priest?" |
| 16525 | So you do n''t want to go back to that tall house, madam? |
| 16525 | Sure he''s all right, and as fine as silk; but why did you give him to me? 16525 That applies to other things besides post- splitting, does n''t it?" |
| 16525 | That includes horse keep, I suppose? |
| 16525 | That would be doing pretty well, would n''t it? 16525 This dull, brutish condition is self- imposed, and to what end? |
| 16525 | Well, Bill, I thought you would like him, and we were neighbors, and--"You thought I would save you the trouble of keeping him, did n''t you? |
| 16525 | Well, men, what do you want? 16525 What breeds of cows have you handled, Thompson?" |

| 16525 | And I do n''t think$ 125 is much, do you?" |
| 16525 | And how much interest do you add?" |
| 16525 | And who was to gainsay her? |
| 16525 | Are they hand- painted? |

| 16525 | CHAPTER XVII WHAT SHALL WE ASK OF THE HEN? |
| 16525 | Ca n''t I do something for you?" |
| 16525 | Ca n''t they drive the butter- cart out each morning and home after school? |
| 16525 | Ca n''t you hold them?" |
| 16525 | Can you make nails? |
| 16525 | Could I live in a better house, or have better food, better service, better friends, or a better way of entertaining them? |
| 16525 | Did n''t you want to stay longer?" |
| 16525 | Did you ever see weather made to order before? |
| 16525 | Do I charge my orchards for this time? |
| 16525 | Do n''t you see that it makes little difference what we call our expenses out here, so long as the farm pays them and gives us a surplus besides? |
| 16525 | Do n''t you think you can help the men, Lars?" |
| 16525 | Do n''t you think you''ve been a little extravagant?" |
| 16525 | Do n''t you want to get rid of those five scrub cows?" |
| 16525 | Do these animals feel no joy in the performance of service which is bred into their bones and which it is unnatural or freakish for them to lack? |
| 16525 | Do they expect we are to change our plans of life to suit their personal notions?" |
| 16525 | Do you feel_ very_ bad, Jack? |
| 16525 | Do you find it in the union? |
| 16525 | Do you know how long it is since I have had them? |
| 16525 | Do you know where you can place them?" |
| 16525 | Do you like the prospect? |
| 16525 | Do you realize, Polly, that the maids in the house get$ 1300 out of the$ 5300,--one quarter of the whole? |
| 16525 | Do you really think farming is all beer and skittles?" |
| 16525 | Do you roll up your sleeves and wear a leather apron?" |
| 16525 | Do you suppose I am going to let these visions become contaminated by practical knowledge? |
| 16525 | Do you suppose these men are here from charitable motives or for their health? |
| 16525 | Do you think we can get a glass of milk of the''farm lady''?" |
| 16525 | Does n''t that count for anything? |
| 16525 | Does that frighten you, Polly?" |
| 16525 | Get some good men out here, wo n''t you?" |
| 16525 | Have you any idea as to where it can be had?" |
| 16525 | Have you any idea how many posts it will take to fence this farm as we have platted it? |
| 16525 | Have you evicted the poor widow, and she on her deathbed? |
| 16525 | Have you got to pay interest on it?" |
| 16525 | He does n''t live up to his possibilities, does he?" |
| 16525 | Headman?" |
| 16525 | Her brown hair has floated in my dreams until I have cried out for help; what would her face have done? |
| 16525 | How could I place the money so that it would bring me half the things which this farm brings me now? |
| 16525 | How have you done it?" |
| 16525 | How long are you going to stay out? |
| 16525 | How many did we keep in the city?" |
| 16525 | How much of it do you suppose there is?" |
| 16525 | How much will it cost to get them out?" |
| 16525 | How was I to know that Polly would hail from that quarter? |
| 16525 | How? |
| 16525 | I can have a saddle horse now, and keep as many dogs as I like, ca n''t I, Dad?" |
| 16525 | I do n''t know everything yet, do I, Thompson?" |
| 16525 | I found by experience, that if one would have bird neighbors( and who would not? |
| 16525 | I think that''s a fair showing for the three years, do n''t you?" |
| 16525 | I was reckless then, and hoped the total would be great, for had not Polly said that she knew I had got the worth of my money? |
| 16525 | If I had more land, would I increase my stock? |
| 16525 | If this were true, these two persons were just what I needed; but, was it true? |
| 16525 | If we had good luck with the sixty chicks, how many would grow up?" |
| 16525 | In return for this$ 3 a year, what do I give my hens besides a clean house and yard? |
| 16525 | Is it due to pure air and sunshine, making redder blood and more vigorous development, to broader horizons and freedom from abnormal conventions? |
| 16525 | Is n''t he all right?" |
| 16525 | Is n''t that great? |
| 16525 | Is the Company under obligation to lose this money for you? |
| 16525 | Is there anything better under the sun than fried salt pork and milk gravy? |
| 16525 | Is this a load which thinking people would impose upon themselves? |
| 16525 | It is hard, sir, not to do a hit of a hammer for weeks or months with a family on one''s hands and winter coming; but what can a man do? |
| 16525 | It was pretty of her to say that; but what else would one expect from Laura? |
| 16525 | Jack?" |
| 16525 | Jackson sent for his horse, and just before he mounted, I said,"Are you thinking of selling your farm?" |
| 16525 | Joining her, I said,--"I have mapped seven forties; have you finished one?" |
| 16525 | May I write and find out?" |
| 16525 | My first greeting was,--"How''s the farm, Polly?" |
| 16525 | My poultry was to be white, and white predominated in my cows; why should not my swine be white also,--or as white as their habits would permit? |
| 16525 | No, I guess I wo n''t sell the paternal acres; but who wants to buy?" |
| 16525 | Not since I knew you well, did I? |
| 16525 | Of the turnips I could feel more certain, for doth not the poet say:--"The 25th day of July, Sow your turnips, wet or dry"? |
| 16525 | One day Jane said:--"Dad, what do you think of the Russian wolf- hound?" |
| 16525 | Or does a close relation to primary things give a newness to mind and body which is granted only to those who apply in person? |
| 16525 | Say, Dad, why not have one?" |
| 16525 | Shall my work stop because you have been called out for a holiday? |
| 16525 | Shall the weeds grow over these walls and my lumber rot while you sit idly by? |
| 16525 | Shall we do it, Polly?" |
| 16525 | Silk thread would advance in proportion, and how does the manager know that he can replace his silk when needed, even at the advanced price? |
| 16525 | Some one will say:"How can you make hens pay if they do n''t lay more than eight dozen eggs a year? |
| 16525 | The experiment is yours, is n''t it?" |
| 16525 | The farm is yours, is n''t it? |
| 16525 | The question ought always to be, How much can a cow eat and drink? |
| 16525 | The social side of life is quite as important as the commercial, for though we gain money, if we lose happiness, what profit have we? |
| 16525 | Then he was Gustavus Adolphus,--for had he not come to the aid of the Protestants when they were in sore need? |
| 16525 | There is land enough now and to spare, but will it be so fifty or a hundred years hence? |
| 16525 | They called him Lars Porsena,--for had he not fought gallantly? |
| 16525 | They had done well without a husbandman; what could not others do with one? |
| 16525 | To live on our lawn, did I say? |

| 16525 | WHAT SHALL WE ASK OF THE HEN? |
| 16525 | Was I to flush two at once, and would they fall to my gun? |

| 16525 | What do I care for that? |
| 16525 | What do you think of Judson as a probable dairyman?" |
| 16525 | What do you think of that?" |
| 16525 | What do you think we could sell this one for?" |
| 16525 | What does Jane say?" |
| 16525 | What in the world have you done with it? |
| 16525 | What kind of investment will pay better? |
| 16525 | What more can she ask? |
| 16525 | What shall I do when you quit work? |
| 16525 | What sort of business will give larger returns in health and pleasure? |
| 16525 | What wages do you pay?" |
| 16525 | What will become of my interests while you are following the lead of your bell- wethers? |
| 16525 | What would I do if disease should appear? |
| 16525 | What would one think of the manager of a silk- thread factory who sold his raw silk, just because it had advanced in price? |
| 16525 | What would you say to a proposition of$ 10,000 for one hundred acres along my north line?" |
| 16525 | When did I ever insist on anything, Mrs. Williams? |
| 16525 | Who has done the cutting down of this trip? |
| 16525 | Why did n''t you keep him for yourself?" |
| 16525 | Why do you insist upon eight weeks?" |
| 16525 | Why does the universal farm- house hang its gable over the public road, without tree or shrub to cover its boldness? |
| 16525 | Why should I?" |
| 16525 | Why, John Williams, do you mean to tell me that you borrowed this money? |
| 16525 | Will you follow me through the search for the land, the purchase, and the tremendous house- cleaning of the first year? |
| 16525 | Will you send for a lawyer?" |
| 16525 | Will you stay on these terms?" |
| 16525 | With all outdoors to choose from, why ape the crowded city streets? |
| 16525 | With much to apologize for in barn and pigsty, why place them in the seat of honor? |
| 16525 | Would I take$ 20 apiece for these trees? |
| 16525 | Would he be better reconciled to his fate after spending his nine months between field and sty? |

| 45154 | Is it some mortal ailment or mere"weakness of intellect?" |
| 45154 | Is it winter? |
| 45154 | Is it worth while for you to do this when the rest of the people do not? |
| 45154 | Is the seed pod of the white one like that of the yellow? |
| 45154 | Is there a little hay and dust in the pail? |
| 45154 | Is there anything worth doing that does n''t take time and work? |
| 45154 | Is there more than one tunnel? |
| 45154 | Is there something wrong about boys and girls who prefer boxed berries and smooth hands to wild fruits and scratches? |
| 45154 | Is"goin''plummin''"entirely out of fashion, even in the prairie states? |
| 45154 | It is easier to go out and earn the money and give it to them to spend, but where do they come in? |
| 45154 | It was perhaps a young Boston housekeeper who asked when her market man offered her Pekin ducks for her table,"How are they esteemed?" |
| 45154 | KILLING WEEDS Weeding is the boy''s job, is n''t it? |
| 45154 | MUSHROOMS"Are you sure these are good mushrooms?" |
| 45154 | Must all fruit come out of boxes and have that stale taste of the town? |
| 45154 | Must it lose its characteristic aroma and give off only that general"markety"smell? |
| 45154 | Must the moth break the threads in getting out, or is the cocoon woven in a manner to provide a gateway when it shall be needed? |
| 45154 | No eyes, no ears; but what use has a mole for either? |
| 45154 | Now how is it made? |
| 45154 | Now who expects to get stung all over? |
| 45154 | OUTDOOR CLUBS Have you a boys''club in your neighbourhood? |
| 45154 | Of course it would be good with game, but can you imagine eating barberry jelly with corn- fed pork or with fat mutton? |
| 45154 | Or a big handful tied up in a grimy handkerchief? |
| 45154 | Or a girls''club? |
| 45154 | Or if there is n''t any idle land can you not persuade him to lend you an acre or so for experimental purposes? |
| 45154 | Or if you live in Montana would you exchange buffalo berry marmalade with a Florida friend for guava jelly or preserved cumquats? |
| 45154 | Or, if you sell cream, would n''t you want a cow whose milk tested high in butter fat? |
| 45154 | Preserved calamus root, too; who buys that unless it is Br''er Rabbit? |
| 45154 | RAISING GUINEA FOWL What would you expect if you ordered"American pheasant"from a bill of fare in a London restaurant? |
| 45154 | SHELF FUNGI Have you seen those outgrowths on dying and dead trees which stand out like a shelf? |
| 45154 | SWARMING Did you ever wonder why bees swarm? |
| 45154 | Soft as velvet, eh? |
| 45154 | Some say the supply has given out, but who believes such tales? |
| 45154 | Sumach too, has great decorative value, yet whoever saw it in a florist''s window? |
| 45154 | THIMBLEBERRY Do you know the thimbleberry? |
| 45154 | That children''s lives depend upon the care he gives it? |
| 45154 | The pulp was squeezed dry and thrown away, was n''t it, at your cider mill? |
| 45154 | The stub prevents healing] But if there is a limb to be cut off a tree in the door yard who is likely to be delegated to the job? |
| 45154 | Then was it possible those blessed geese had been spending their precious vacation days gathering bay berry leaves? |
| 45154 | They called it"mother"did n''t they? |
| 45154 | To such boys and girls I say,"Did you ever see any pheasants?" |
| 45154 | WHAT GOES ON IN THE BROOD CHAMBER? |
| 45154 | Was there anything wonderful in this? |
| 45154 | Well, that time has come, but, who ever went to a shop and asked for a weasel tippet? |
| 45154 | What are his conspicuous characteristics? |
| 45154 | What business has a spider in the wasp''s nest, if it is her nest? |
| 45154 | What can a boy not do if he has the opportunity? |
| 45154 | What can be done with those wasting apples? |
| 45154 | What can you do to make your own particular corner of the country a better place for you and your companions to live in? |
| 45154 | What do you know about that? |
| 45154 | What does your father have a manure pile for? |
| 45154 | What else is an old creek like that good for anyhow? |
| 45154 | What is a violet''s seed pod like anyhow? |
| 45154 | What is a weed anyhow? |
| 45154 | What is that yellowish object that rolls from among the ruined adobe walls? |
| 45154 | What is there about it? |
| 45154 | What kind of stories do you like best? |
| 45154 | What kinds of clubs do boys like? |
| 45154 | What makes it do this? |
| 45154 | What more can you say about watermelon or strawberries? |
| 45154 | What other farm crop will do as much? |
| 45154 | What shaped roof will be easiest to build, most economical of lumber, and most satisfactory as a rain shed? |
| 45154 | What will please them more than to know that you have a keen sense of honour? |
| 45154 | When a crowd of boys meet together, what do they talk about? |
| 45154 | When do the pods open and how? |
| 45154 | Where are the insects in winter? |
| 45154 | Where did the little tree come from whose top was cut off after the first bud was set? |
| 45154 | Which shall you follow? |
| 45154 | Who has a better right to the ashes than the boy who manages the ash pan? |
| 45154 | Who has not heard old men say that? |
| 45154 | Who picks all these nuts in the woods? |
| 45154 | Who says now that the mink has disappeared? |
| 45154 | Why do people, whose only fitness for telling stories lies in their having an imagination, make up such yarns about real things? |
| 45154 | Why is this? |
| 45154 | Why not have a club that the boys will take an interest in and a club that the girls will take an interest in? |
| 45154 | Why not make up some neat attractive cases, each containing a little collection illustrating the four stages of the growth of this insect? |
| 45154 | Why not provide her with a still more convenient forked stick as some bee- keepers do? |
| 45154 | Why not put some thought on the very business he is engaged in? |
| 45154 | Why not train a dog or a sheep to turn the crank? |
| 45154 | Why should you not benefit by this? |
| 45154 | Why was that? |
| 45154 | Will not busy boys and girls make better citizens than idle ones? |
| 45154 | Will not our bees work just as cheaply as those in foreign countries? |
| 45154 | Will you do this? |
| 45154 | Will you try it? |
| 45154 | Will you try? |
| 45154 | Would n''t it be a triumph to raise a family of these wonderful birds? |
| 45154 | Would n''t it be worth while for the domestic science or cookery teacher in a country school to show her pupils how to utilize these home products? |
| 45154 | Would n''t you, if you live in northern Michigan, like to exchange a pot of thimbleberry jam for one made in North Carolina from persimmons? |
| 45154 | Would you ruin a fine young tree just beginning a life of usefulness? |
| 45154 | XI MAKING THE COUNTRY A BETTER PLACE TO LIVE IN I once asked Professor Bailey,"What is the most important farm crop raised in the United States?" |
| 45154 | You believe everybody ought to know how to swim, do n''t you? |
| 45154 | You can find frenzied advertisers trying to disprove these statements, but do not your own observations bear me out? |
| 45154 | You have seen a fine board ruined by a knot hole? |
| 45154 | You like him, of course, but is he a loafing, worthless, sneaking, sheep- killing dog? |
| 45154 | You see patches of dead grass on many lawns, but do you find moles at work in these same lawns? |
| 45154 | You used to have a literary society in school, and it failed? |
| 45154 | _ Inky Caps._--You never expect to gather your dinner from an ash heap? |
| 11696 | A baby in a bath- chair? |
| 11696 | Ai n''t you been''ome to- day? |
| 11696 | And are we to die then? |
| 11696 | And do we? 11696 And now?" |
| 11696 | And others wounded? |
| 11696 | And that is all? |
| 11696 | And the answer, Brothers? |
| 11696 | And then? |
| 11696 | And then? |
| 11696 | And to- morrow? |
| 11696 | And you? |
| 11696 | And your lads? |
| 11696 | Anything fresh? |
| 11696 | Anything fresh? |
| 11696 | Are they? |
| 11696 | Are we to part? |
| 11696 | Being a good boy, Albert Edward? |
| 11696 | Besides, Brothers, except for vermin, except for little accidents with evil things, what have we seen of killing? |
| 11696 | But do n''t you want a nice straight road in the place of all these rotten rutty little lanes? |
| 11696 | But his gun---? |
| 11696 | But how is it it''s breaking out in this fashion, all over the place? |
| 11696 | But if they seek to prevent us? |
| 11696 | But now? |
| 11696 | But the hens,said Mr. Bensington;"how are the hens?" |
| 11696 | But they-- If they want to part us--"What can they do? |
| 11696 | But we might--"Whither? |
| 11696 | But what can they do if we do n''t? |
| 11696 | But what can you do? |
| 11696 | But what do they propose to do? |
| 11696 | But where am I to go? |
| 11696 | But where is it going? 11696 But why?" |
| 11696 | But you do n''t propose---? |
| 11696 | But-- what are you? |
| 11696 | By- the- bye,he said, with a slightly lowered voice,"how does_ she_--?" |
| 11696 | By- the- bye,he said,"you do n''t give those little chicks meat?" |
| 11696 | Ca n''t the brasted fool sit on a''ouse or somethin''? |
| 11696 | Cousin Jane? 11696 D''yer mean they_ got_ Flack?" |
| 11696 | D''you think they''ll''urt''i m? |
| 11696 | D''you_ mean_--? |
| 11696 | Did n''t it work? |
| 11696 | Did n''t you shoot? |
| 11696 | Do n''t you know what''s become of him? |
| 11696 | Do n''t you know? 11696 Do n''t you know?" |
| 11696 | Do they say much about_ Us_? |
| 11696 | Do you know what happened to my Son? |
| 11696 | Do you know,she asked,"that to love me-- is high treason?" |
| 11696 | Do you mean there are other-- giants? |
| 11696 | Do you mean to say,she repeated stupidly,"that there are other giants in the world? |
| 11696 | Do you mean--? |
| 11696 | Do you notice how he has dropped into the way of calling it Boomfood? |
| 11696 | Do you see,he would say, for example,"that Caterham has been talking about our stuff at the Church Association?" |
| 11696 | Doing well? |
| 11696 | Every one loaded? |
| 11696 | Flack''s down? |
| 11696 | For the Royal Society? |
| 11696 | From them? |
| 11696 | Growing? |
| 11696 | Guns? |
| 11696 | Had n''t I better---? 11696 Has any one seen that rat?" |
| 11696 | Have they got him? |
| 11696 | Have you heard anything-- about buying the farm? |
| 11696 | Have you seen the paper these last few days? |
| 11696 | He shall play with this first, sing to it and give names to the notes,said Redwood,"and afterwards--?" |
| 11696 | Healthy? |
| 11696 | How d''yer_ mean_? |
| 11696 | How is it to be done? |
| 11696 | How many? |
| 11696 | How much what? |
| 11696 | How much? |
| 11696 | How the Deuce am_ I_ to know till I see a paper? 11696 How''s it all going?" |
| 11696 | How? |
| 11696 | How? |
| 11696 | How_ could_ I? |
| 11696 | Hullo,said Cossar,"back already? |
| 11696 | Hullo? |
| 11696 | Hypertrophy? |
| 11696 | I said,said Mr. Bensington, with the self- complacency of a man who has produced a good significant saying,"Why solitary?" |
| 11696 | I suppose all the lot_ I_ used to know-- Chamberlain, Rosebery-- all that lot--_What_? |
| 11696 | I thuppothe there''athen''t been any trouble with any of thethe big waptheth to- day anywhere? |
| 11696 | I wonder what they''ll do? |
| 11696 | I''m glad to find you here,he began;"the fact is--""Have you seen about this Royal Commission?" |
| 11696 | If there was n''t gentlefolks to make work for us to do,said Mrs. Caddles,"how should we poor people get a living?" |
| 11696 | Is Mr. Bensington hurt? |
| 11696 | Meaning that one might bring up other children---? |
| 11696 | Money in your pocket? |
| 11696 | Mother,he would say,"if it''s good to work, why does n''t every one work?" |
| 11696 | Mr. Redwood, Sir,he began,"would you be willing to come to Mr. Caterham? |
| 11696 | My dear,he cried;"but does it matter? |
| 11696 | Name? |
| 11696 | Nice to''ave a few thousand of_ them_ on the rates, eh? |
| 11696 | No? |
| 11696 | Not for a time? |
| 11696 | Nothing better? |
| 11696 | Now is there-- anything? 11696 On Herakleophorbia?" |
| 11696 | Only--He broke off abruptly to ask,"You will not part from me?" |
| 11696 | Ought we-- what? |
| 11696 | Ought you to publish? |
| 11696 | Poison? |
| 11696 | Rats about? |
| 11696 | Rats? |
| 11696 | Redwood,said Bensington;"it''s a curious thing to say, I know, but-- do you think Winkles understands?" |
| 11696 | Said, where is a seat? |
| 11696 | Said, where is the sea? |
| 11696 | Skinner? |
| 11696 | So far as I can grasp the symptoms--"Yes? |
| 11696 | So far? 11696 Splash it about, Sir?" |
| 11696 | Suppose they come to terms? |
| 11696 | Suppose they do n''t? |
| 11696 | The other Giants? |
| 11696 | The rats? |
| 11696 | The thing is, Bensington, what are we to do? |
| 11696 | Then why did you begin? |
| 11696 | They are fighting now? |
| 11696 | They do n''t denounce us at all? |
| 11696 | They shot him? |
| 11696 | Think of the unborn...."Brothers,came the voice of young Redwood,"what can we do but fight them, and if we beat them, make them take the Food? |
| 11696 | This your stuff? |
| 11696 | To Caterham? |
| 11696 | To help others? |
| 11696 | To me? |
| 11696 | Wa, wa, wa, wa---But shall we hear Caterham any better? |
| 11696 | Wawawawa---What did it matter? |
| 11696 | We would assign them territory--"Where? |
| 11696 | We? 11696 Well, what''s the matter with that child? |
| 11696 | Well, why do n''t you stop it? |
| 11696 | Well, why not? |
| 11696 | Well,he would say, rubbing his hands,"how are we getting on?" |
| 11696 | Well--? |
| 11696 | Well? |
| 11696 | What I want to know,said Lady Wondershoot,"is it_ right_ this child should have such an extraordinary quantity of milk?" |
| 11696 | What are ye doing up here, ye swarming little people, while I''m a- cuttin''chalk for ye, down in the chalk pits there? |
| 11696 | What are ye for, ye swarming little people? 11696 What are_ we_ to do?" |
| 11696 | What can it be but war? 11696 What did he say?" |
| 11696 | What did you say? |
| 11696 | What do you mean? 11696 What do you mean?" |
| 11696 | What do you think of him, Bensington? 11696 What do you think of it?" |
| 11696 | What does this_ mean_? |
| 11696 | What else is there to do? |
| 11696 | What has come to our brother Redwood? |
| 11696 | What has happened? |
| 11696 | What have you done to our child, Dandy? |
| 11696 | What have you to tell me? |
| 11696 | What is it all for? |
| 11696 | What is it? |
| 11696 | What is the matter? |
| 11696 | What new folly have these people got into their heads? |
| 11696 | What of my son? |
| 11696 | What time? |
| 11696 | What traffic? |
| 11696 | What was that? |
| 11696 | What was that? |
| 11696 | What''s he say? |
| 11696 | What''s he saying? |
| 11696 | What''s the matter? |
| 11696 | What''s this? |
| 11696 | What''s wrong with him? |
| 11696 | What''s_ that_? |
| 11696 | What-- the''ens? |
| 11696 | What? 11696 What?" |
| 11696 | What? |
| 11696 | Where are they? |
| 11696 | Where are you? |
| 11696 | Where did he fall? |
| 11696 | Where do they make such men? |
| 11696 | Where is my son, Cossar? |
| 11696 | Where is my son? |
| 11696 | Where you going, Redwood? 11696 Where''s Flack?" |
| 11696 | Where''s Skinner? |
| 11696 | Where''s that baby? |
| 11696 | Where''s the telephone, Bensington? |
| 11696 | Where''s the waggons? |
| 11696 | Where? |
| 11696 | Where? |
| 11696 | Where? |
| 11696 | Which way? |
| 11696 | Who cares what they can do, or what they will do? 11696 Who else, Sir?" |
| 11696 | Who gave the orders? |
| 11696 | Who have always been if anything a little_ under_--_under_--"The Average? |
| 11696 | Who would n''t be reactionary? 11696 Who''s this here Caterham?" |
| 11696 | Who_ was_ he? |
| 11696 | Why ca n''t they lea''me alone? |
| 11696 | Why do n''t we all do the obvious? |
| 11696 | Why does he keep on about it? 11696 Why should I walk within bounds and be refused all the wonders of the world beyond there? |
| 11696 | Why should I work in this pit day after day? |
| 11696 | Why should they not agree? |
| 11696 | Why solitary? |
| 11696 | Why? 11696 Why?" |
| 11696 | Why? |
| 11696 | Will you come? |
| 11696 | Yes,said the eldest brother;"but what exactly does that mean? |
| 11696 | You ai n''t''eard anything of Mithith Thkinner? |
| 11696 | You ai n''t''eard anything of Mithith Thkinner? |
| 11696 | You do n''t mean it''s contagious? |
| 11696 | You do n''t propose to discontinue--"In the case of your little boy? 11696 You do n''t think,"he said, turning on her abruptly,"that there''s anything in the sort of thing he said?" |
| 11696 | You going to shoot off those at me? |
| 11696 | You have lit to- day--? 11696 You have n''t told these people here? |
| 11696 | You have never heard of us? 11696 You have not heard?" |
| 11696 | You have thought? |
| 11696 | You know nothing? |
| 11696 | You left Flack? |
| 11696 | You mean it''s a chick? |
| 11696 | You mean,he said,"what are we to do?" |
| 11696 | You mean--? |
| 11696 | You mean? |
| 11696 | You think it would do? |
| 11696 | You wo n''t, eh? |
| 11696 | You''aven''t''eard anything about Mithith Thkinner,''ave you? |
| 11696 | You''re going into the holes? |
| 11696 | Your Son, Sir? 11696 _ Buy the place_?" |
| 11696 | _ Disturbance_? 11696 _ What_?" |
| 11696 | _ Why_ do you like doing that? |
| 11696 | _ You_? 11696 ''Asn''t any one''ad the sense to tell you the law? |
| 11696 | ''Asn''t no one ever told you?" |
| 11696 | ''Aven''t they told you-- any of''em? |
| 11696 | ''This is a matter of life and death,''I said,''do n''t you understand?'' |
| 11696 | ("But why should n''t one oil the engine from without?" |
| 11696 | A drunken American sailor wandered about tearfully inquiring,"What''s he want anyhow?" |
| 11696 | After all,_ ought_ we to go on with it?" |
| 11696 | And another,"What of that?" |
| 11696 | And besides-- The rest?" |
| 11696 | And beyond? |
| 11696 | And going unanswered,"What''s work_ for_, mother? |
| 11696 | And if we do n''t? |
| 11696 | And now--""Now?" |
| 11696 | And now? |
| 11696 | And the earwigs will get out of your way--""But about the ratth?" |
| 11696 | And then:"Did you chaps get''i m?" |
| 11696 | And then? |
| 11696 | And where were Skinner''s boots, for example? |
| 11696 | Anything?" |
| 11696 | Big_ dogth_ or_ catth_ or anything of_ that_ thort? |
| 11696 | But in that way, without cruelty, without injustice--""And suppose the Children do not agree?" |
| 11696 | But still, what can they do?" |
| 11696 | But why had he been arrested? |
| 11696 | Ca n''t we find out something the little people_ want_ done and do it for them-- just for the fun of doing it? |
| 11696 | Ca n''t you see you''re a- frightening the''orses? |
| 11696 | Could n''t we, brother? |
| 11696 | Cousin Jane? |
| 11696 | Curious, is n''t it? |
| 11696 | D''you think this world was made for old women to mop about in? |
| 11696 | Did it mean--? |
| 11696 | Did you get behind them?" |
| 11696 | Did you see? |
| 11696 | Do I speak for you, Brothers?" |
| 11696 | Do n''t you see the prospect before us clear as day? |
| 11696 | Do you mean to just grizzle and obstruct passively and do nothing-- till the sands are out?" |
| 11696 | Do you think I will stop for their little rules, for their little prohibitions, their scarlet boards indeed!--and keep from_ you_?" |
| 11696 | Do you think-- indeed--? |
| 11696 | Do? |
| 11696 | Eh? |
| 11696 | Eh? |
| 11696 | Eh? |
| 11696 | Eh? |
| 11696 | Eh? |
| 11696 | Enough? |
| 11696 | Even if they should destroy us every one, what then? |
| 11696 | Food of Titans.... You prefer the former? |
| 11696 | Got a telephone? |
| 11696 | Got money? |
| 11696 | Guns? |
| 11696 | Have you killed them all?" |
| 11696 | Have you no mercy? |
| 11696 | Have you not heard?" |
| 11696 | Have you scientific men_ no_ imagination? |
| 11696 | Have you succeeded? |
| 11696 | He had been frightened at times and disturbed, but was he not alive still and the same still? |
| 11696 | He heard Cossar below him insisting,"How else could the thing be done? |
