Synopsis
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Whitewater Farms about nine in the morning, A pril 19, 1900. Two pure-breed calves, one a heifer, the other a bull, were dropped the same day at nearly the same hour. Odell came in toward noon, heard these farm items from his foreman, Ed Lister. For twenty years Odell smarriage had been childless. He had waited in vain for a son, for several sons, and now, after twenty sterile years of hardship, drudgery, and domestic discord, Fanny had given him a girl. He stood in silence, chewing the bitter news. A wright, he said, thats tlwA! Is Queen doin good? Whitewater Queen was doing as well as could be expected and her fourth heifer calf was a miracle of Guernsey beauty. A wright! Veal that danged bull-caaf. That s White Chief ssecond bull outa White Rose. Im done. We ll take her to Hilltop A cres next time. And thats that! He dusted the fertiliser and land plaster from his patched canvas jacket: It blowed some, he said. I oughta waited. Cost me five dollars, mebbe. I thought it might rain; thats why. It sone dum thing after another. It alius comes like that. He scraped the bottom of his crusted boots against the concrete rim of the manure pit.
