some idea of the productiveness of
the soil out there. He said they
had to now the grass off the sod
house floor every day to find the
baby. One family near him had
twin babies, with only one cradle,
and the kid that had to sleep on the
floor grew twice as large as the
other. Where the soil is richest a
man dares not stand on one foot any
length of time lest that leg become
longer and bother his walking.
