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	WILL FARMING PAY?
35696	Why should not our Atlantic slope have its Lombardy?
35696	Will Farming Pay?
35696	Will it Pay?
35696	Will it pay?
35696	_ Five_ thousand?
35696	and how?
35696	and of what has it been exhausted by subsequent crops?"
21022	A thin layer of clay_ a_ entirely prevents the water running through] If water can not get through can air?
21022	And are you sure that your litmus does not contain excess of free acid or free alkali?
21022	Are there any pebbles left?
21022	Are you quite certain of your result?
21022	But what would happen if instead of a piece of clay one inch long you had a whole field of clay?
21022	But why should the liquid clear?

21022	Did this moisture have any effect on the soil?
21022	Did you test the distilled water with litmus paper?
21022	Does any portion of the soil burn?
21022	Does it seem damp or dry?
21022	Does this dried mud consist of very tiny grains of sand or of some material different from sand?
21022	How do the plants manage to get water on dry days?
21022	How have the appearance and properties of the soil been changed by drying?
21022	How large are these?
21022	How long does it take before the water becomes quite clear again?
21022	How many different sorts of peat can you get samples of?
21022	How much plant food is there in the top soil?
21022	If so, how large are they, and of what kind of stone?
21022	If so, what conclusions do you draw?
21022	In what way do dead leaves get carried into the soil?
21022	Is any moisture given off?
21022	Is any residue left after heating to dryness?
21022	Is it fine or in lumps?
21022	Is the soil equally friable at different times of the year?
21022	Is there any change in its appearance after heating?
21022	Is there any effervescence?
21022	Is there any evidence of vegetable matter in the soil?
21022	Is this because clay is lighter than water?
21022	Is this solution acid, alkaline or neutral?
21022	Peat mould, peat moss litter, sphagnum moss, turf for burning, dry moor peat?
21022	WHAT IS THE SOIL MADE OF?
21022	What becomes of the fragments thus carried away by the water?
21022	What colour is it?
21022	What do you notice?
21022	What fraction of the soil is fine enough to go through the gauze?
21022	What has been the capacity of the soil in gallons per square yard?
21022	What has the plant food been made from?
21022	What is the material this time, sand or clay?
21022	What will be the effect of these moisture differences on plants?
21022	What would have happened if the sample had been dug out during wetter or drier weather?
21022	Why did it flow quickly at the bridge and slowly elsewhere?
21022	Would that shrink also, and, if so, what would the field look like?
21022	in a garden path?

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?
17683	Now brother farmers, I have moved the adoption of appropriate names for every farm in the land; who will second the motion?
17683	Petted, well- housed, demure, and sleek; Three times a day he is called to feast, And why should he not be quiet and meek?

29665	Dreaming,is him?
29665	Drunk, as usual,she said, harshly,"when were you anything else?"
29665	Have you the impudence to follow me here? 29665 I suppose you would like to learn how to avoid them?"
29665	I wish to present to you--"What?
29665	Jane, do n''t you know me?
29665	Lack culture, eh? 29665 Mean?
29665	Names? 29665 Oh, he did n''t?
29665	So?
29665	Strange I wanted to see it, was n''t it? 29665 Well,"said the old fellow,"is that all?

29665	A trouble and a disgrace, am I?"
29665	As the first man below must be consulted, why not the second, and how far this side of the Gulf is the limit of this trespass?
29665	Best made of bread or biscuit?

12140	And now,concluded Cossinius,"which of you Italian swine breeders will stand forth and tell us of his herd?
12140	And what kind of a villa is this,said Axius, turning to Merula,"where there are neither the ornaments of a town house nor the utensils of a farm?"

12140	What are you doing here?
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?"
12140	And who does not know the fame of the fish ponds of Philippus, of Hortensius, and of the brothers Lucullus?
12140	And will you see this?

12140	Do we not see some things grow best in the spring, others in summer, some in autumn, and others again in winter?
12140	Do you sell to the butcher the hogs which you raise at your farm for more than Seius sells his wild boars to the meat market?"

12140	Have not Sergius Orata( goldfish) and Licinius Murena( lamprey) taken their cognomens from fishes for this reason?
12140	How?

12140	Is it an art, and, if so, what are its principles and its purposes?"
12140	Is not Italy so covered with fruit trees that it seems one vast orchard?
12140	On the other hand, what useful thing is there which does not only grow but flourish in Italy?
12140	To the funeral?

17512	Why, do n''t you see? 17512 AM I A SCOT, OR AM I NOT? 17512 Asked my heart always, in joy or in sorrow,Will it please Robin, the thing that I do?"
17512	Brookshank?"
17512	But if all this be true the question at once presents itself, Why have not American women engaged largely in sericulture?
17512	But what is our foreign trade?
17512	But what was all this fainting about?
17512	Ca n''t you find time to write a few lines to the readers of THE PRAIRIE FARMER?
17512	Can we do without separators?
17512	Can-- will you be content with that, Or will you further tacks me?"
17512	Do n''t you perceive that the bumble- bees would soon become exterminated by the field- mice if it were not for--""Old maids?"
17512	Do you see the point?"
17512	Does the basket willow have to be cultivated like a field crop?
17512	Going to get married, or what?"

17512	How is it?
17512	How many brood- frames are necessary in one hive?
17512	How many colonies can be kept in one locality?
17512	I heard her sob:"And if I could, I''d get my lessons awful good, But what''s the use of trying?"
17512	I may rely upon your consent?"
17512	Is it advisable to have a standard- size frame for all bee- keepers?
17512	Is n''t it about time the Department of Agriculture at Washington sat a little down on this man who writes too much with his pen?
17512	Is there more than one kind, and if so which is best?
17512	Mr. Granger, what are you doing these long winter evenings?
17512	Mrs. Ellwood, much to the chagrin of her husband, remarked:"This seems to me a better device than your own, do n''t it to you?"
17512	Now if file love you just a bit, What further can you ax me?
17512	Now is Providence to be charged with this disparity?
17512	Now, first, who was Juniper?"
17512	Oh, in that wonderfu'', wonderfu''meeting, What shall I say to him?
17512	One said to the other"By the way how is that Catarrh of yours?"
17512	SYKES''SURE CURE FOR CATARRH;''oh, why did n''t I know of it before?
17512	She has said so, do n''t you see?"
17512	THE FIRST QUESTION TO BE ANSWERED IS,--is the diamond pure-- a genuine stone?
17512	The material?
17512	The second question is, IS THE PAPER A DESIRABLE FAMILY JOURNAL?
17512	What can I say about it?

17512	Who can be indifferent in the face of our great perils, and recounting the losses by foreign restrictions and inhibition?
17512	Why this difference?
17512	Will we not, fellow- contributors?
17512	You will accept him, of course?
17512	that it is a handsome ornament for a living room or library?
17512	what will he say?
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	DR. J. F. SCHLIEMAN, HARTFORD, WIS.--Are there any works on the cultivation of the blueberry, and if so could you furnish the same?
38955	Dilly- dally Dilly, How can you be so slow?
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	Had the other woman tired of him already?
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 Bismarck try this home remedy for his complication of gout and trichinà ¦?
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?
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?
5992	And do you really mean to say you drank it, Salter?
5992	Are we going into the water?
5992	Are you not_ very_ lonely here?
5992	Are_ you_ going, then?
5992	Good gracious, F----,I cried, when we had passed,"who is that man?"
5992	Have you ever gone to see a London club?
5992	How about the carriage?
5992	How big were the mushrooms?
5992	How can you be fond of thousands of anything?
5992	How is that, Palmer?
5992	How many have you got?
5992	Is it possible you are crying about that?
5992	Is the ground level?
5992	None, I am happy to say,I answered peevishly,"What could Nettle and I have done with the horrible things if we had caught any?"
5992	What are we going to have for supper?
5992	What in the world has happened?
5992	What in the world have they to do with each other?
5992	What is it? 5992 What will you take for that little grey filly when she is broken?"
5992	Where did you learn to cook?
5992	Where: oh, where?
5992	Why did you go?
5992	Why did you think you should find gold here?
5992	You do n''t mind being left?
5992	And how do you think he did it, with two pillars of hice for legs?
5992	Arrah, why could n''t ye let it be thin?"
5992	As for the kitchen, its state can not be better described than in my Irish cook''s words, who cried,"Did mortial man ever see sich a ridiklous mess?
5992	At last he said, with the sweat from sheer agony pouring down his face,"Look here, matey: could n''t you hump me out in the snow again?
5992	But through all our pleasant, happy little bustle ran the constant thought:"What shall we do for more country?"
5992	Can you get on your legs, think you?"
5992	Could any thing be more propitious?
5992	Did he die?"
5992	Do n''t you hear Pepper say he wants me?"
5992	Do you know that it is not the custom anywhere, in any civilized country, for gentlemen to remain seated and covered when a lady comes into the room?
5992	F---- flung the hall door wide open, and called out,"Who''s there?"
5992	F---- laid his hand down over a large wash of light green paint and asked,"Now what sort of country is this; really and truly, you know?"
5992	For a moment, and half- awake, an old tropical reminiscence floated through my sleepy, startled mind:"Can it be an earthquake?"
5992	Has anybody ever reflected on how difficult it must be to get a chimney swept without ever a sweep or even a brush?
5992	He looks heart- broken, poor fellow, does n''t he?"
5992	Her last words were,"Ca n''t you send me a paper or hany thing printed, mam?"
5992	How was I to get fresh servants, and above all, what was I to do for cooking during the week they were away?
5992	I fix my feet firmly against the batten, and F---- cries,"Are you ready?"
5992	I was the first to hear the noise, and cried,"Who''s there?
5992	I wonder if any one has any idea what hot work it is making a bed?
5992	If a sheep- farmer thinks his sheep are not in good condition, one of the first questions he asks his shepherd is,"Are there any pigs about?"
5992	In the shafts stood poor shaggy old Jack, looking over his blinkers as much as to say,"What do you want me to do now?"
5992	John''s?"
5992	Might I stop here for a bit?"
5992	Mr. U---- was just beginning to say"Look here: do n''t you think we ought to take turns at this?"
5992	Now why ca n''t you all do the same, here?"
5992	Now why was this?
5992	People have often said to me since,"Surely you would not like to have lived there for ever?"
5992	The ice would bear, and what more could skater''s heart desire?
5992	Was it a morning for low spirits or sobs and sighs?
5992	We had done all we could within working distance, but what was, the use of digging in drifts thirty feet deep?
5992	We said to each other while we were hastily dressing,"How shall we ever catch the horses?
5992	Well, now, do n''t you ask that pretty Miss A----, who has just come out from England, to come and stop with you, and then we could have some music?"
5992	What are you doing?"
5992	What can be more enchanting than the prospect of spending such sunny hours in that glorious bush?"
5992	What words can describe the pleasure it is to inhale such an atmosphere?
5992	When I mentioned my grievance in the drawing- room to the gentlemen, I only got laughed at for my pains, and I was asked what else I expected?
5992	Where could you find a gayer quartette than started at an easy canter up the valley that fresh bracing morning?
5992	Who could bear malice in the presence of such dreadful pain?
5992	Who does not know the peculiar_ smell_ of tracing- paper, with its suggestions of ownership?
5992	Who so proud as the young mother?
5992	Why do n''t you come too?
5992	Why need I go on?
5992	Why you might be weather- bound or kept there for a month, and what shall I do then?
5992	Will any one believe that after such a perilous journey, I could actually be persuaded to try again?
5992	Will you like to come too?"
5992	You''ve got a piano, have n''t you?
5992	[ Note: the shearer''s demand for a few minutes rest] whilst his companion inquired pathetically,"What was the use of flaying a dead man?"
5992	and oh, would the next be equally good?
5992	what is it?"
22040	''Does it inconvenience you?'' 22040 ''Inconvenience, sir?
22040	''Invest it? 22040 And did you do nothing?"
22040	And did you still make no attempt to save yourself?
22040	Anything else, sir?
22040	But the_ finale_?
22040	Is it a fact that the corn is too poor for manufacture into eggs?
22040	Well, then, will ten thousand pounds do?
22040	What is the nature of it, may I inquire?
22040	Why did n''t you take the matter in hand and check it right where it was?
22040	Why does n''t everybody do so? 22040 Willing?
22040	You do n''t care to know my name or residence?
22040	You wo n''t laugh at me, will you?

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	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?
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?
39483	Should I give the child everything he cries for, or withhold the desired object until he quits?
39483	What shall Children Read?
39483	275 Impatience of Parents 276 What of Predestination?
39483	ALL HAVE A RIGHT TO CULTURE And then, a second question we need to ask ourselves is, Whom is education for?
39483	Also, what about the literature in the home?
39483	And are they to continue to have their careers determined by mere chance and incident?
39483	And if the latter be your choice, what helpful agencies are you bringing to bear upon the situation?
39483	And then, the bitterness and anguish of soul of the mothers of these lost members of a high humanity-- what of that?
39483	And where were the boys?
39483	And why not have this scheme made out by_ highly trained experts_ as is the case with the school course?
39483	Are some foreordained to success and others to failure?
39483	Are the boys and girls to be left to shift for themselves?
39483	Are we spoiling our Boys who have the Best Chances in Life?
39483	Assuming first of all that the girl instinctively desires to preside over a home of her own, how can she best be prepared for that place?
39483	BUILDING A GOOD LIFE 1 What is a Good Life?
39483	BUSINESS TRAINING FOR THE COUNTRY GIRL 235 Is the Country Girl Neglected?
39483	But how about the problem of teaching her to take up her daily tasks willingly and with a joyous heart?
39483	But what is to be done?
39483	But what of the children whom he brought in to"educate"?
39483	But what of this particular boy''s early training?
39483	But what_ is_ a good life?
39483	But, how may we best interpret this question?
39483	By what rule do men succeed in their callings and by what different rule do other men fail?
39483	Can not one be instituted, say, for the township?
39483	Can not some movement be instituted for bringing about a radical change?

39483	DO YOU OWN YOUR DAUGHTER?
39483	Did he enjoy equal advantages?
39483	Did his parents when married really know anything about rearing children?
39483	Do we desire that she become a shrewd money- maker and successful a some sort of commercial life?
39483	Do you want her to take her place among the men and be forced to do some sort of man''s work in order to obtain her bread?
39483	Does the College rob the Cradle?
39483	Does the high school now in existence actually serve through its courses the best interests of young people who come in from the neighborhood?
39483	Does this thing need to continue?
39483	During the last decade, what has been the trend of the young men and women who have gone from the home district to high school or college?
39483	Even then, the question must be raised: Will this new position probably prove helpful as an introduction to a better form of occupation?
39483	First of all, we must ask, What are the ordinary forces which need to be brought into service in the development of children?
39483	First of all, we must keep asking the question, What is education for?
39483	First of all, what in a practical sense is a satisfactory business training for a young woman, a farmer''s daughter in particular?
39483	First of all, what is the proper way in which to regard the boy''s work?

39483	How about this?"
39483	How long must this carelessness continue?
39483	How long should the boy be held to his task before being allowed a holiday or recreation period?
39483	How shall we measure the strength and force of the human character other than by the bigness and the purity of the daily thoughts of the individual?
39483	How shall we state this question?
39483	IS THE COUNTRY GIRL NEGLECTED?
39483	IS THE HUMAN STOCK COMPARATIVELY SOUND?
39483	If one of the work mules becomes lame or reveals a bad disposition, should the owner take it to an electrician for advice?
39483	If she is a poor housekeeper, how can she expect her daughters to excel in that finest of all arts?
39483	If the family cow becomes locoed or shows an unusual result in her milk product, should one consult a piano tuner?
39483	Is it not a matter which the mother should think about most seriously in relation to the training of her daughter?
39483	Is the boy for the sake of the work, or the work for the sake of the boy?
39483	Is there a prohibitive tuition fee?
39483	Is there a type of education and training which specifically fits and prepares for each of the native callings?
39483	Is there an inherent strength in some and a native weakness in others?
39483	Just when and how much should the boy and girl be allowed to go among the young people of the community?
39483	Must Children have Children''s Diseases?
39483	Now, what playthings may easily be provided in such homes?
39483	Now, why not the same forethought in planning the necessary amount of the other exercises?
39483	Or, have these institutions been a means of sending them away as permanent city dwellers?
39483	Or, what can be done to improve the present neighborhood relations to the high school that may be already within reach?

39483	The Developmental Method 281 The Farmer Fortunate 282 What College for the Country Boy?
39483	The first question raised in such cases is, What is the particular moral defect of the individual?
39483	The home church and Sunday school?
39483	The instinct to play, to fight, to steal, to run away, to work(?
39483	The local society in which he moves?
39483	The temptations that may lie near about him?
39483	Then, how would it be to set apart an hour or more each day, regularly, for the rest and relaxation of the mother, and call it"Mother''s hour"?
39483	Tuberculosis, is it inheritable?
39483	WHAT AGENCIES BUILD UP CHARACTER?
39483	WHAT IS A GOOD LIFE?
39483	WHAT IS IN YOUR BOY?
39483	WHAT OF PREDESTINATION?
39483	WORKING THE GIRLS IN THE FIELD Is there any justification for requiring a girl to work in the field with the men and boys?
39483	Was it the same as that of the others?
39483	We can not answer rightly the question, How much work for the country boy?
39483	What are they?
39483	What can be done, therefore, to nourish and build up the best possible thought activities, especially in case of the rural boys and girls?
39483	What did she know about money and the common affairs of business?
39483	What does it mean?

39483	What of this sort can be done to cause him to return to his assigned tasks with greater zeal and enthusiasm?
39483	What specific readjustments are needed in his home life in respect to the amount of work required of him?
39483	When should each of them be told this and that about the secrets of life, and where may helpful literature thereon be obtained?
39483	When should this be introduced into the boy''s life and when that into the girl''s life?
39483	Why Back to the Farm?
39483	Why is it?
39483	Why is this?
39483	Why not see to it that there be secured a few enticing volumes of the clean and uplifting sort?
39483	Would you give it to him to stop his crying, or withhold it?
39483	Would you return his plaything to stop his crying, or let him cry it out?
39483	_ A rest period._--How would it do to plan for the mother a daily period of rest and relaxation?
39483	and What can be done to help him?
39483	or, What classes should have the benefits of it?
39483	or, do you earnestly desire that she find some sort of worthy woman''s work?
39483	second, What are the causes?

32949	And that she shall recognize no difference in her standard for the morality of both the young man and the young woman?
32949	And the daughter?
32949	And thus is she being happy?
32949	And who would want to tie them down, anyway?

32949	But do they not mind the deep changeless silence in those distant solitary places?
32949	But how about rattlesnakes?
32949	But is it really so?
32949	But may we not expect even more?
32949	But the Indians?
32949	But then again, would the state of things be bettered if this important initiative were placed equally in the hands of women and men?
32949	But what farm woman of the old days ever gave"so many other pleasures,"or"too many places to go,"as reasons for not reading?
32949	But what is this Open Door?
32949	But where is the tall young daughter, and where are the papers for her and the books about her needs?

32949	CHAPTER XXV THE PLAY IN THE HOME O little bulb, uncouth Rugged, and rusty brown, Have you some dew of youth?
32949	Can any one ask the question?
32949	Can any one doubt that she will ask for such things as she believes are necessary to her highest efficiency, and insist upon having them?
32949	Can it be that the Country Girl has in some measure reached this point by doing what Lot''s wife did-- by simply looking behind her?
32949	Can they take full, deep, long breaths?
32949	Can we entertain the hope that the city cousins will come to the rescue?
32949	Can you fail to see and feel it?
32949	Casting her eye along back over the generations, did she see anything that appalled her?
32949	Did she take it?
32949	Do their chests stand up good and strong?
32949	Do we not need this also to help lift the ban of loneliness and to supply that elasticity of spirit that means life to us?
32949	Do you not fear that war- whoop?

32949	Does her husband appreciate what a wonderful woman fate has assigned to him?
32949	Does she make the most of his efforts in her behalf?
32949	Does she sleep the very sleep of the dead the whole night long, and is she all day the widest awake being that can be found for miles around?
32949	Does the Country Girl sufficiently appreciate our Uncle Sam?

32949	For how can a town with all those advantages hold up its head among the towns of America if it has a church building and no church therein?
32949	For without that, she reasons, what is there to look forward to?
32949	Friend Bowerman says to Rachel his wife,"What sayest thou, Rachel?"
32949	Happily this is the story of an exceptional incident; but how may it be prevented from becoming common?
32949	Has she an appetite to startle one fully three times a day and even more often, if something good to eat is being made?
32949	Has she no games?
32949	Has she the chance to grow and fill full the possible round of her own personal development?
32949	Have you a crimson crown?
32949	Here are six million girls of the countryside-- what can they do to redeem the country from this dull silence and unmelodious tedium?
32949	Hope is the anchor of the soul; and without something to hope for, how can one hope?
32949	How can we get a kitchen like that?
32949	How do we account for this great interest in singing?
32949	How hard can they hit, how fast can they run, how high can they jump, how much can they lift, how free are they from pain, and how happy are they?
32949	How many fruits, vegetables, foods of all sorts, are made the home of these various kinds?
32949	How many hours will it take to show that certain processes will render each variety a safe food?
32949	How many kinds of bacterial life are there?
32949	How many young students must give years to the business of finding out what we may use and what we may not?
32949	If that is so, then this life_ is_ favorable to moral development, is it not?"
32949	In fine, is she receiving her share of possible growth?
32949	Is her face expressionless and too old for her years?
32949	Is her face full of expression, with smiles and dimples all the time?
32949	Is it not clear where the true greatness of America lies?
32949	Is it worth while?
32949	Is not the duty of the girls who are a little older or who have been away to school or college perfectly, translucently clear?
32949	Is she full of love and affection toward each member of the family, and endless in her devices for their comfort and entertainment?
32949	Is she having her chance to show all that she is able to become?
32949	Is she having her share of content?
32949	Is she listless and suspicious and sensitive?
32949	Is she round- shouldered and heavy of step?
32949	Is she suppressed and sodden in mood?
32949	Is she the life of the home, with a word and a joke for everybody and is she a perfect mischief among the other children?
32949	Is the Country Girl happy on the farm?
32949	Is the chin well down and back?
32949	Is the daughter not doing her share?
32949	Is the system, which was evidently designed to foster justice and happiness, accomplishing this end for a reasonable majority?
32949	Is there any one who does not know what the word"blaze"means?
32949	Is there room to put down just one more story?
32949	It means-- but why should I tell mothers what that means?
32949	KING[_ rushes in excitedly_]--Where is my daughter?
32949	KNIGHT-- And wilt thou elope with me?
32949	May not the Country Girl of the next generation be expected to do something adequate and wonderful with these good gifts of heaven?
32949	May we, however, ask a further question?
32949	Now what has been forgotten?
32949	Often they are not, but whose fault is it?
32949	On the next Sunday there were five and one of them was blind; and what do you think?
32949	One girl on a Western ranch is very much interested in the subject of-- what do you suppose?
32949	Or is she full of spirit and enthusiasm, a perfect dynamo of energy?
32949	Or is she in her heart dissatisfied and glowering?
32949	She follows it and follows it-- and what is the end to be?
32949	She should-- but does she?
32949	Should she not do so?
32949	Some one may say, Why then touch her in this obliviousness of her unfilled possibilities?
32949	Surely within the oven one can see A roast... what else on earth would smell so good?...
32949	The British officer however steps toward the parents, leading the maiden by the hand and says:"Friend Bowerman, may I have thy daughter for my wife?
32949	To what extent, then, does the farmstead offer opportunity for such growth?
32949	What about a vital minority?
32949	What about exceptional cases?
32949	What barrier can there be to a woman''s progress?
32949	What business?
32949	What can she do?
32949	What could be more delightful than owning one''s own land, having one''s own house, digging in one''s own soil, and being one''s own and only boss?
32949	What have you been praised for doing?
32949	What is that Country Girl thinking of, that she should waste this opportunity?
32949	What is there about life in the open that gives to genius its incentive?
32949	What is there that any one girl can do about such a thing?
32949	What must be rectified in order that the machinery may be wholly approved?
32949	What prevents them?
32949	What processes will protect each kind from becoming harmful to human life?
32949	What sufferings to certain individuals?
32949	What then shall be done?
32949	What wrongs can be found?
32949	What, in fact, might they not do?
32949	When the wrong is done, and the girl is lost, does the college girl in her home town take it to her own heart as in part her responsibility?
32949	Where did she get it?
32949	Where is the Country Girl and what is happening in her department?
32949	Which will be the most economical?
32949	Who but a girl of the great untrammelled Northwest would call the weather reports a home convenience, or think of including homemade soap?
32949	Who can tell?
32949	Who would not spring to help?
32949	Why does she not do something for those girls?
32949	Why does the shepherd invariably possess a flute?
32949	Why not in the house?
32949	Why not record the farm- supplies on the day book at market prices, as if they did come from butcher and grocer?
32949	Why not search for it?
32949	Why should not the church door be a place for the exchange of free will offerings of all kinds?
32949	Why should not this be done in every small town?
32949	Why these special parts of the world should move in this direction, who can tell?
32949	Why, then, does she feel so great a need for sheer money?
32949	Why, then, if the Country Girl wishes to become efficient, should she not have a"score card"of her own?
32949	Why?
32949	Will any States fail to show their appreciation, and to meet the offer of the beneficent Uncle Sam?
32949	Will it be long, sweetheart?
32949	Will not the same thing be true of woman in the farmstead?
32949	Will the Country Girl be obliged to inherit this deprivation?
32949	Would the young men suffer themselves to be ensnared by the unbelated suggestion, remain in the rural environment and found their homes there?
32949	Would they allow themselves to be tied down in a place where they do not desire to be?

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	What can you do with a forge?
16525	What do they come for if they do n''t want the place we described? 16525 What do you buy cedar posts for, when you have enough better ones on the place?"
16525	What do you get in return? 16525 What do you have to pay for them?"
16525	What do you suppose a good one would cost?
16525	What do you suppose fire insurance policies are for? 16525 What do you suppose they will charge per ton on their platform?"
16525	What has it cost you to date?
16525	What have crows hiding got to do with corn, I''d like to know?
16525	What kind of things does this young lady make, dear?
16525	What percentage of hatch may we expect from purchased eggs?
16525	What things does the Herr Doctor speak for?
16525	What time can I breakfast? 16525 What will have to do?"
16525	What will the paper on your bedroom wall be like?
16525	What will you do if the men go out?
16525	What''s the matter with the bull, Jackson? 16525 What''s the matter?
16525	Who is match- making now?
16525	Who said he was?
16525	Why do you throw down the Plymouth Rocks? 16525 Why, of course you can; you''ve managed your business, have n''t you?
16525	Will you ever have to increase the debt?
16525	Will you have one lump or two?
16525	Will you sell this plant, Williams?
16525	Will you take twenty per cent advance on what the books show? 16525 Would you like to see a clergyman?"
16525	You started out with a plan for a$ 10,000 house, did n''t you? 16525 A man is not a slave, to be made to work against his will; but, on the other hand, is he not a slave if he is forced to quit against his will? 16525 A saddle horse and dogs galore would square me with Jane, beyond question; but what about Jack? 16525 After resting a few minutes, Sir Tom said:--Me lady Laura, do you mind that prayer song, the second verse?"
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	But do you think you can secure this paragon?"
16525	But how about the children?
16525	But what''s the matter with the old lady''s quarter across your south road?"
16525	But what''s the use of charging the farm with interest when you credit it with our keeping?"
16525	But why did you say dehorn the cows?"
16525	But, supposing it only pays expenses, how can you put on as much style on the interest of$ 100,000 anywhere else as you can here?
16525	By the way, how much of an ice- house shall I need?"
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 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	To paper the wall?
16525	WHAT SHALL WE ASK OF THE HEN?
16525	Was I to flush two at once, and would they fall to my gun?
16525	We must n''t think of it as a dog; it''s a barzoi; that is n''t too much for a barzoi, is it?"

16525	What difference does it make whether you charge interest or not?"

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?

36031	Are you ready to vote on the amendment?
36031	Briefly, then, of what does the American Red Cross organization consist?
36031	But how can the Nation be indifferent to the very stuff out of which it is made?
36031	But what is the condition now?
36031	Can you, therefore, Ladies and Gentlemen, ask if in view of these facts the Government of Great Britain is interested in your efforts?
36031	Chairman CLAPP-- Will the gentleman make a motion to that effect?
36031	Consider Scotland-- a poor and barren country, yet who would dare to call poor the land of Scott and Burns and Carlyle?
36031	Did n''t the boy who grew 150 bushels of corn to the acre_ do_ something?
36031	Do its waters belong to the States through which those waters flow?
36031	Do we want to bring men from Central America?
36031	Do we want to bring them from Mexico?
36031	Do you know it is your own salvation to do so?
36031	Do you remember the history of irrigation in the valley of the Po, in Italy?
36031	Does n''t that develop the country?"
36031	Does the Federal Government own it?
36031	Finally she asked,"John, why do n''t you say something?"
36031	First, considering the prime purpose to preserve and protect the forest, what has been the result?
36031	Fourthly and finally, what kind of education is it that the new needs call for?
36031	Gentlemen of the Congress, was the question of State rights, the_ real_, genuine doctrine of State rights, behind that demand?
36031	Governor NORRIS-- Has led?
36031	Has the Federal Government this right?
36031	Has this course been right?
36031	Have n''t they done a great deal of work to develop your irrigation projects?
36031	Have we lagged behind the National Government?
36031	He heard one of them say to the other,"They are having a great fuss up there in Congress over this Ballinger- Pinchot controversy, are n''t they?"
36031	He tells us that this Reclamation Service is costly-- thirty, forty, or fifty dollars an acre, to be paid in ten years without interest-- for what?
36031	How are the cities, towns, and villages in those States to grow if so large a portion of the land is closed to the husbandman?
36031	How do the people of the Old World raise big crops?
36031	How do they keep that land up?
36031	How have these things been accomplished?
36031	How shall we reach the people who have not yet been reached, and who in all probability will not be reached by anything published in the usual way?
36031	I have told you of the genesis of the soil- robber; is he here in the Mississippi valley?
36031	I would like to ask Governor Norris if it is not a fact that the Federal Government has led in irrigation in Montana?
36031	Is Montana entitled to take a place in the kindergarten class in the school of Conservation?
36031	Is all of this to be changed with the new interest in industrial life?
36031	Is any_ real_ interest of the women of the land in danger?
36031	Is any_ real_ interest of women inseparable from the interests of the fathers, husbands, brothers, and sons of the women of the land?
36031	Is it because they fear that we will fail to develop the country rapidly enough?
36031	Is it seconded?
36031	Is n''t it awful?"
36031	Is n''t that a resource worth conserving?
36031	Is n''t that worth thinking about?
36031	Is that Conservation?
36031	Is that motion seconded?
36031	Is that your pleasure?
36031	Is the Chair sustained?
36031	Is the Gentleman from the State of Washington present?
36031	Is the technical, in other words, to take place of the liberal?
36031	Is there a second to the motion for his election?
36031	Is there any interest of women to be compared in vital importance to themselves, with the conservation of true womanliness?
36031	Is there any other field where Conservation could produce results so immense and so important?
36031	Is there any other where it bears so directly upon our economic future, the stability of our Government, the well- being of our people?
36031	Is there in the country that intelligence, that self- denial, that moral courage, and that patriotic devotion which alone can bring us safely through?
36031	Is there not need of a conservation of higher things?
36031	Let a man go to town and become a lawyer or a doctor for ten or fifteen years, and then return to the country, and what is he good for?
36031	May I tell my own experience?
36031	Men with enthusiasm?
36031	Mr ROSS-- Does the Chair rule that I am out of order?
36031	Mr ROSS-- Mr Chairman-- President WALLACE-- Has the Gentleman a motion to make?
36031	Mr ROSS-- Will the Chairman please announce what the motion is?
36031	Now where is there worse farming than there?
36031	Now, are we capable of passing legislation to preserve our water resources?
36031	Now, are you doing that in Minnesota?
36031	Now, does all the water thus garnered from this immense watershed to flow through the State of Louisiana belong to the State of Louisiana?
36031	Now, what is our educational establishment, as it stands over against the body of our material resources?
36031	Now, what will be the result practically?
36031	Now, what will happen?
36031	Now, who is suffering?
36031	Now, who was so improvident?
36031	Ought it to be administered by the Government and disposed of for its profit, or opened to the people and shared with the States?
36031	Perhaps we may first ask ourselves: Why are we here?
36031	President BAKER-- Are any opposed?
36031	President BAKER-- Is the Gentleman a Delegate from the State of Washington?
36031	President BAKER-- Will the house be in order?
36031	President WALLACE-- Are there remarks on that question?
36031	President WALLACE-- Has the Gentleman any motion to make the order of business?
36031	President WALLACE-- Is there a second to the nomination of Mr Gipe for Recording Secretary?
36031	President WALLACE-- What is the further business before the Congress?
36031	Shall we grasp at a shadow in the stream, like the dog in the fable, and drop the substance to sink away from us beyond recall?
36031	Shall we hold the corporate plunderer to strict account, and let the single separate plunderer go scot free?
36031	So far as communism of capital is concerned, did not Cleveland''s graphic statement adumbrate the conditions as they exist today?
36031	So the virgin forests went into private ownership; and Mr Hill will tell you,"What of it?
36031	Take the great Mississippi; to whom does the Mississippi river belong?
36031	That is a highly intellectual job, is n''t it, for an American citizen, to grow food for a Danish cow?
36031	That would be going some, even in these days of"frenzied finance,"would n''t it?
36031	The best sites are already taken away from the people; shall we bend every energy to save what remains?
36031	The friend asked him,"Why have you chosen these peculiar dimensions for your wall?"
36031	The great question to each one should be: Where and how does Conservation apply to me?
36031	The real problem is,_ how we are going to furnish bread to the people at a price that they can afford to pay_?
36031	The real question is simply this, Who can best regulate the special interests for the country''s good?
36031	They had secured all the other sites along that river-- and for what purpose?
36031	This will be realized if I ask,"How many of you knew that we have such an association,"and"Did you know that it is now in session"?
36031	To whom are we answerable but to ourselves, the people?
36031	To whom does it apply?
36031	Voices:"What''s the matter with Heney?"
36031	Was any of it sold to actual settlers?
36031	Were they doing it for development?
36031	What came we here to do?
36031	What did President Taft say this morning?
36031	What do you do then?
36031	What do you know about that country?"
36031	What does this mean?
36031	What has been done with it?
36031	What is Conservation?
36031	What is being done to train the great body of mankind to whom this important task of Conservation is entrusted; and are the present measures adequate?
36031	What is the purpose of this Republic?
36031	What is the question before the house?
36031	What is the use in talking to Delegates now about calling the States in alphabetic order at 9 oclock on next to the last day of this Congress?
36031	What is this doctrine that the banker has become the censor of the individual''s needs and actions with his own money?
36031	What more absurd disposition of our timber land could have been made than the laws under which it has passed to private hands?
36031	What shall it profit to conserve everything else on earth if we fail to conserve the spirit and fiber of our citizens, young and old?
36031	What shall we do with the unattached man, to make him also responsible?
36031	What was done with it?
36031	What wonder fires were set to burn the choppings and make pastures?
36031	What worth have forests or mines or any material wealth, gained at the sacrifice of so much vital force?
36031	What, then, will society do with those persons who rob society?
36031	When we presented it to our Legislature, what do you think has happened?
36031	Where did bad farming begin, do you think?
36031	Who are Conservationists?
36031	Who shall estimate the wealth of Scotland''s contribution to the world and to America?
36031	Why does the public abhor and obstruct the physician in his study of anatomy, dissection, and autopsy on the human body?
36031	Why have we built them up so fast; why have they risen to such tremendous figures?
36031	Why is it that some of these men who have profited by our mistakes and our improvidence in the past are fighting against this Conservation movement?
36031	Why must doctors from time to time be themselves forced to urge the necessity of making every hospital a teaching and research institution?
36031	Why not?
36031	Why then does the public, as an aggregation of individuals, allow itself to become suspicious of the medical profession, an aggregation of physicians?
36031	Why, my friends, do you know what we gave to Mr Hill?
36031	Why?
36031	Why?
36031	Will somebody second my motion?
36031	Will you not help us in that, and so help develop the land and make it productive?
36031	Would you take the water away and stop the reclamation of the arid West?
36031	You can not trust the State?
36031	You may ask,"What has Rhode Island to conserve?"
36031	You may say, What interest have we, who are not a manufacturing people, in the mines and the water- powers of other States?
36031	You say, Give to the Federal Government the right to the water- powers of the State and forever prevent the further reclamation of our land?
36031	[ 3] President WALLACE-- Shall we vote on these Vice- Presidents selected by the Delegates from the different States?
36031	_ How_ can you account for it?
36031	a democrat interested in_ water_?"
36031	sounded by the culprit?
36031	when the question of frauds against the land laws was in discussion?
