That's about 10 pounds.
:02:01
- How much is beaver worth this year?
- Six dollars a pound.
:02:04
I'll trade you for a new plow...
:02:07
...two tubs of lard,
a barrel of molasses...
:02:10
...25 pounds of chewing tobacco.
:02:12
And you wouldn't have a wife under the
counter? I'm looking for a wife.
:02:16
- Any special brand?
- Well, yes.
:02:19
I like a widow woman
that ain't afraid to work.
:02:22
There's me and my six brothers.
:02:24
Place is like a pigsty,
and the food tastes worse.
:02:27
So I made up my mind. The next time
I come into town, I'll get a wife.
:02:31
That's a fine thing, I must say!
:02:33
Thinking you could trade for a wife
like a bag of meal.
:02:36
No, ma'am.
I wouldn't say that, ma'am.
:02:39
None of our gals is going to go off
to bear country with you...
:02:44
...to cook and wash and slave
for seven slumocky backwoodsmen!
:02:48
There's 10 men
for every woman out here.
:02:51
You want a wife,
go back east.
:02:53
There's no unmarried females
in this town?
:02:58
Good morning, Mrs. Bixby.
