  1. There was once a man who was blind. e went with his son to see a farm which he was going to buy.
    He rode on a horse. His son led the horse.
    When they got to the place the father said to the son "Tie the horse to a Ragweed" "Oh" says the son. "There is not a Ragweed seen on the land" "Very well" says the father. "Turn the horse and we will go home" as Ragweed grow only on good land".
