In certain parts of the west, where without irrigation the cultivators of the land would be in a bad way indeed, the light rains that during the growing season fall from time to time, are appreciated to a degree that is unknown in the east.
Last summer a fruit grower who owns fifty acres of orchards was rejoicing in one of these precipitations of moisture, when his hired man came into the house.
“Why don’t you stay in out of the rain?” asked the fruit-man.
“I don’t mind a little dew like this,” said the man. “I can work along just the same.”
“Oh, I’m not talking about that,” exclaimed the fruit-man. “The next time it rains, you can come into the house. I want that water on the land.”
