Of course, you've got a sweet, little, rosebud mouth; but you need a big, ox-horn mustache in this vocation." "Don't show it, Steve," advised the Stockman. "I judge his Honor's got one of them same things his black self. You might both fill and you don't want to let him see how high yours is." "If I only don't fill the wrong way," said Steve. "Want to split the pot or save stakes with me, Judge?"
As for Steel Spring, I observed that that amiable, long-legged individual eyed the stockman rather narrowly, as though he expected a few words of reproach, or something worse; but in this he was mistaken; for Hardum contented himself with expressing surprise at the length of his pedal extremities, and wanted to know if he was not sired by a kangaroo an expression which our new acquaintance laughed at, as he wished to conciliate the old man.
The careless stockman, seeking to enlarge his pastures by burning the underbrush, sets fires which often destroy hundreds of square miles of forest. The summer camper and the prospector also frequently go on their way without extinguishing the camp fire, though a great forest fire may be the result. Ours is a fertile and productive earth, capable of supporting a multitude of living things.
Dan and the Quiet Stockman, with a dozen or so of cattle "boys" to help them, had the year's musterings and brandings to get through; the Dandy would be wherever he was most needed; yard-building, yard-repairing, carting stores or lending a hand with mustering when necessity arose, while the Maluka would be everywhere at once, in organisation if not in body.
That is what papa said. "Durin' slavery there was stockmen. They was weighed and tested. A man would rent the stockman and put him in a room with some young women he wanted to raise children from. Next morning when they come to let him out the man ask him what he done and he was so glad to get out. Them women nearly kill him. If he said nothin' they wouldn't have to pay for him.
As Mac hauled and drudged, the melons paid their first dividend; half-past eleven four weeks drew near; "Just-So Stories" did all they could, and Dan coming in found the Quiet Stockman away back in the days of old, deep in a simply written volume of Scottish history.
Cameron and Mathew, one stockman and a blackfellow.
Thin muslin is as good as thick, and will last for years if washed when laid away when emptied. National Stockman. One very essential point in roasting beef is to have the oven well heated when the beef is first put in; this causes the pores to close up quickly, and prevents the escape of the juices. Take a rib piece or loin roast of seven or eight pounds.
A more hideous-looking wretch, as he stood by the blazing pile of brush, I never saw; and it appeared to me that he gloried in his deformity, for he rolled his glaring eyes at me, and chuckled immensely when he saw that I regarded him rather closely. "The stockman has given us the go-by," said one of the gang, returning from his pursuit of the old convict.
Out in the open a Mulgoa man shrugged his shoulders, remarking, "He won't try!" and was promptly attacked furiously by three small boys of Cunjee, who pelted him with clods and abuse from a safe distance. Murty looked at Jim with a little half-apologetic gesture, and Jim grinned. "Play up, Murty, old chap!" he said. It was not in vain that he had schooled the stockman in the paddock at Billabong.
