~Excelsior.~ A variety which is of the Fottler class, but makes smaller sized heads. ~Louisville Drumhead.~ Of the flat Dutch type; nearly as early as Early Summer. ~Early Advance.~ Of the Wakefield type. With me it is full as early as Wakefield, and considerably larger. Rather coarser in structure. ~Market Garden.~ Of the Fottler class; very reliable for heading.
Not a voice is heard only the throb of the engine down below and the articulated pulsation of the paddles, every stroke of which brings forth a hollow sound from the sea, as clear and as well defined as a blow upon a drumhead; but these are softened by the swish of waters foaming under the wheel.
What do the Catholic people get, or have ever got, from you and such as you, in return for the luxury which you draw, without thanks, from their sweat and labor, but gaols, and chains, and scourges, and halters. Hanging, and transportations, triangles, and drumhead verdicts, are admirable means to conciliate the Catholic people of Ireland."
All these drumhead methods, such as the hurling of masses of living beings from villages into towns and from the border-zone into the interior, the prohibition of certain occupations and the artificial promotion of others, could not but result in economic ruin, instead of leading to economic reform. Nor was the governmental system of encouraging agriculture among Jews attended by greater success.
The flavor of this new cabbage is rich, tender, and sweet, being superior to the general Drumhead class, making it a very superior variety for family use, and also for marketing when there is not a long transportation. None of the scores of varieties I have ever grown has a shorter stump than this; the heads appear to rest directly on the ground, and no one is surer to head.
Gilbert Winter, with his cold blue eyes flashing their slumbering fires of hate, stalked into the White House as the Baltimore committee were passing down the steps. Without announcement he confronted the President. "In the name of the outraged dignity of this Republic," he thundered, "I demand that these traitors be arrested, tried by drumhead court-martial and hanged as spies!"
At this time the figures had only been "placed," broadly sketched in large lines, "blocked in" as he called it. The next step was the second drawing, much more finished. He rapped the stretcher sharply with his knuckles; it responded sonorously like a drumhead, the vibration shaking the charcoal from the tracings, filling the air with a fine dust.
Lawford was quicker; but in getting his tackle inboard he was slow to obey Betty's command: "Let go that sheet! Want to swamp us, foolin' with that fancy fish rod?" "Aye, aye, skipper!" he sang out, laughing, and jumped to cast off the line in question just as the sail bulged taut as a drumhead with the striking squall.
So they give Afiola a sort of drumhead court-martial, and bounced him unanimous, and all the pent-up deviltry of the man came out of him at one lick, like touching off a dynamite cartridge.
Heads rather hard, medium size; early, and tender. It is said not to stand the heat as well as most sorts. ~Early Empress.~ Cabbages well; heads conical; early. ~Robinson's Champion Ox Drumhead.~ Stump long; heads soft and not very large; wild. ~English Winnigstadt.~ Long-stumped; irregular; not to be compared with French stock. ~Blenheim.~ Early; heads mostly conical; of good size.
