Girl Scouts at Dandelion Camp - Lillian Elizabeth Roy - Bog

"Dear me, I never saw so many old dandelions in my life!" exclaimed Juliet Lee, as she tugged mightily at a stubborn root. "Seems to me there are ten new weeds ready to spring up the moment we pull an old one out," grumbled Ruth Bentley, standing up to straighten her aching back. "Forty-six for me! I'll soon have my hundred roots out for the day!" exulted Elizabeth Lee, Juliet's twin sister. As she spoke, she shook a clod of loose earth from a large dandelion root, and threw the forty-sixth plant into a basket standing beside her.
