Bones?
-
Buffalo bones.
-
The detritus of sporting men lured by a $3 rail pass
-
and the promise of game there for the taking.Carcasses left to rot create a mighty stench.
-
But in that smell,
-
an enterprising man may detect the odor of money.
-
Bones can be ground to make fertilizer and fine china.
-
And that's only the beginning.
-
A man can earn himself eight, nine,
-
perhaps as much as $1 0 a ton.
-
Damn it!
