Johnny kake is made out ov korn, so iz hasty puddin.
Hasty puddin and milk is quick tew eat.
All you hav got to do iz to gap, and swallo, and that iz the last ov the
puddin.
Korn waz familiar tew antiquity. Joseph waz sent down into Egipt after
sum korn, but his brothers didn’t want him to go, so they took pitty on
him and pitted him in a pit.
When his brothers got back hum, and were asked whare Joe waz, they
didn’t acknowledge the korn, but lied sum.
It has been proved, that it iz wicked to lie about korn, or enny ov the
other vegetables.
Thare iz this difference between lieing, and sawing wood, it iz easier
to lie, espeshily in the shade.
Korn has got one thing that noboddy else has got, and that iz a kob.
This kob runs thru the middle ov the korn, and iz as phull ov korn as
Job waz ov biles.
I alwus feel sorry when i think ov Job, and wonder how he managed tew
set down in a chair.
Knowing how tew set down, square on a bile, without hurting the chair,
iz one ov the lost arts.
Job waz a card, he had more pashunce, and biles, tew the square inch,
than iz usual.
One hundred and twenty-five akers ov korn tew the bushel iz konsidered a
good krop, but i have seen more.
I hav seen korn sold for 10 cents a bushel, and in sum parts of the
western country, it iz so much, that thare aint no good law aginst
stealing it.
In konklushun, if yu want tew git a sure crop ov korn, and a good price
for the krop, feed about 4 quarts ov it to a shanghi rooster, then
murder the rooster immejiately, and sell him for 17 cents a pound, krop
and all.
