'I don't care for some, says they, 'I've already had any. They're running in a straight line, with full power on, and don't intend to stop or slow down." "How do you know?" asked Dorothy. "By the distance? How far away are they?" "I know, Red-Top, by what I didn't find out with that screen I just put out.
The next morning he went into the haying with as much apparent zest as Leonard. They began with red-top clover. The growth had been so heavy that in many places it had "lodged," or fallen, and it had to be cut with scythes. Later on, the mowing-machine would be used in the timothy fields and meadows.
He told of finding something of value on the boat that belonged to George Stormway's wife, Bunny Badgeley that was how the man with the red-top had tried to steal the packet and was baffled by reason of Thad's cunning trick; how his chum had seen him just outside the hamlet of Morehead Landing, the tracks on the road, and finally the figure seen by the clump of bushes.
They evidently feel they have the family name and respectability to keep up. Mr. Yocomb, what is it that smells so sweetly?" "That is the red-top clover we cut last week." "Oh, isn't it good? I wouldn't mind having some myself," and she snatched down a fragrant handful from the mow.
The circles are made by the wind driving partly broken weed-stalks around and around their places of attachment, until the fibers by which they are anchored sever and the stalks are blown away. The volutes are formed by the stems of red-top grass and of a round-topped variety of the chenopodium, drifted onward by the whirlwind yet around and around their bushy adhesive tops.
But he did not wait till they were out of sight. Instead, he quickened his pace, murmuring: "The sooner I get to Mr. Ford's, the sooner I'll be a cowboy." The walk on the track was tiresome, however, unaccustomed to such rough traveling as he was, and it was with a sigh of relief that he finally caught sight of a group of buildings, one of which had a red-top roof.
There ain't no low trick she won't play on us if she gets the chance. Better tie her up, I say." "Magnus," responded Tony with severity, "it'd make a person think to hear you talk that you wasn't no gentleman. If you can't keep little Red-top in order without you tie her, why, then hand her over to a guy what can.
"Yes, and I'm going to be timid like a mice," Seaton returned as the Skylark dropped rapidly toward a lagoon near the edge of the island. "You ought to put that in a gag book, Dick," Dorothy chuckled. "You forget all about being timid until an hour afterwards." "Watch me, Red-top! If they even point a finger at us, I'm going to run a million miles a minute."
I keep an abundance of roughage, usually shredded corn, before the cows all the time. When it has been picked over moderately well, it is thrown out for bedding, and fresh fodder is put in its place. The finer forages, timothy, red-top, clover, alfalfa, and oat straw, are always cut fine, wetted, and mixed with grain before feeding.
I'll pipe down, and we'll go into a huddle." Seaton noticed that Dorothy's face was white and that she was fighting for self-control. Drawing himself over to her, he picked her up in a tight embrace. "Cheer up, Red-Top! This man's war ain't started yet!" "Not started? What do you mean? Haven't you and Martin just been admitting to each other that you can't do anything?
