If we were farmer we would ride all the way to town just to see with what avidity the poor cattle and hogs go for the luxuriant Bermuda grass in the parks, and then what? Why, we would go right back home, hitch old Beck and Kit to the wagon and before night would have load of Bermuda sod, and next day we would plant an acre or so of some waste place which had never been any profit to us, and in short time have pasture worth more than double the quantity of land in any other crop and then we would smile over our fat sleek, stock, and smack our lips at the good, rich, yell low milk and butter.
