The Sweat and the Furrow was Silas Weekley being earthly and spade-conscious all over seven hundred pages.

The rain dripped from the thatch, and the manure steamed in the midden. Silas never omitted the manure. It was not Silas's fault that its steam provided the only uprising element in the picture. If Silas could have discovered a brand of steam that steamed downwards, Silas would have introduced it.
