Did they sit up for the folks at the Pineries, when Ralph Plantagenet, and Gwendoline, and Guinever Mango had the same juvenile complaint? Did they sit up for little Mary Clapp, the landlord's daughter, who actually caught the disease of little Georgy? Truth compels one to say, no.
I have seen the flame azaleas at their bright hour of consummation in the hill country of central Georgia lakes of tranquil and splendid fire spreading far away through the rough-barked colonnades of the pineries.
"Parliament is very expensive only fit for those who have a large stake in the country. Champagne to Mr. Ferrers." Lumley bit his lip, and spoke little during the rest of the dinner. Mr. Templeton, however, waxed gracious by the time the dessert was on the table; and began cutting up a pineapple, with many assurances to Lumley that gardens were nothing without pineries.
The amount of lumber made in these pineries in 1860 is estimated at twelve hundred million feet, worth between eight and nine millions of dollars. Most of this goes to the country west of the Lakes, to Chicago, to St. Louis, and even down the river to New Orleans.
In a carefully prepared article on the Southern pineries published in an American magazine I think Harper's a few years ago, it was stated that the resin from the turpentine distilleries was sometimes allowed to run to waste; and the writer, in one instance, observed a mass, thus rejected as rubbish, which was estimated to amount to two thousand barrels.
"I do not know whether you people are familiar with 'blazes. Grace knows something about them." "The only 'blaze' I know anything about is the blaze I make when I try to start a cook fire," laughed Hippy. "You will need more knowledge than that if you stray a hundred yards from camp in the Pineries," replied Tom as they rode along.
Many of these are very beautiful, and often as white as alabaster. There are other large rooms, but they possess no peculiar interest. Found large deposits of earth on the floor having a saline taste." Of the extensive pine forests in Ozark County, he says: "The size and quality of the timber will compare favorably with that of the celebrated pineries of Wisconsin and Minnesota."
I've done most ever'thing though; used ter work on a farm, and puttered round a saw-mill some in the Arkansaw pineries. Aim ter strike a job at somethin' and go back thar where I know folks. Nobody won't give a feller nuthin' in this yer God-fer-saken country; haint asked me ter set down fer a month. Back home they're allus glad ter have a man eat with 'em. I'll sure be all right thar."
Thomas Newcome, jun., and Sarah his nurse were transported from the cottage where they had lived in great comfort to the palace hard by, surrounded by lawns and gardens, pineries, graperies, aviaries, luxuries of all kinds.
Having examined the mill in detail and grasped its parts as a connected whole, the next step is to observe its relation to the river, to the rafts and rafting-boats, and further back to the pineries and logging-camps up the river. Or going in the opposite direction from the saw-mill, we follow the lumber till it is used in the various forms of construction.
