They had not been long in this situation, when they heard a noise which approached gradually, and which did not appear to come from the avenue they had passed. “Two million at least,” he answered. “In gallons that would be something around nine-hundred billion gallons. So you can see how much easier it is to figure in acre feet.” Bob continued to waste a few precious seconds in a vain endeavor to move his friend Billy, but kept his eye on the returning bucket. It came almost to Billy’s shed and then, in response to a sharp jerk on a lever, it dropped into the mixing shed of the concrete plant..

“Six seconds, you mean,” said Otto. For several weeks before the date Bob had set as the time he must return to the East, he had received no letters from his father. Just as he was about to be a little worried, something occurred which settled all his fears. “Well, I don’t know whether your uncle is well enough to see you today. I will find out.” Billy had been a sport! He had shot Bob just as far over as he could and the boy was correspondingly grateful..
