Spring Fever<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u201cHey, Adam! Something wrong?\u201d\u00a0 I rode into the yard and found my oldest brother sitting \u00a0in the rocking chair on the porch rubbing the bridge of his nose like he does when something is troubling him.<\/p>\n

\u201cYep.\u201d\u00a0 He answered me without looking up.\u00a0 \u201cWhile I was waiting for Fred Cass to get our order together I was glancing through an Almanac. I don\u2019t know how we missed it, but brace yourself, Joe, \u00a0the first day of spring was two days ago.\u201d<\/p>\n

Just the thought of \u00a0spring made my leg ache and I rubbed it as I\u00a0 went to the porch and grabbed my brother\u2019s arm in alarm. \u201cWe have to head for the hills, Adam! Sounds like a good time to check on the line shacks!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSorry, little brother, but I already brought that up with Pa.\u00a0 He said he wasn\u2019t going to deal with it alone, that we are all in this together as a family.\u00a0 He\u2019s sending Red and Frank up to the line shacks.\u201d\u00a0 He patted my arm in sympathy.<\/p>\n

I sighed and led Cochise off to the barn.\u00a0 I wasn\u2019t going to give up as quickly as Adam.\u00a0 There were times I could get around Pa when Adam couldn\u2019t.\u00a0\u00a0 I would play on his sympathy.\u00a0 When I went back to the house I made sure to limp a little and plopped\u00a0 down on the settee rubbing\u00a0 my leg by my knee.\u00a0 When Pa walked past me on his way from his desk to the table I tried to look as pitiful as I could.\u00a0 Pa stopped and looked at me smiling.\u00a0 \u201cNice try, son, but it isn\u2019t going to work.\u00a0 Come eat dinner.\u201d<\/p>\n

After a long cold winter of being cooped up together in the house most families would be happy to see spring come.\u00a0 Our family dreads it and wishes there was a way to skip spring and go right to summer.\u00a0 But yearly disaster is on its way to the Ponderosa. \u00a0What kind of calamity do we dread to befall us every spring ? \u00a0A flood?\u00a0 A mudslide?\u00a0 None of those.\u00a0 This yearly disaster is unique to the Cartwright family. \u00a0A three-hundred-pound brother with spring fever!<\/p>\n

Pa said that Hoss has gotten it every year since he was knee high to a grasshopper.\u00a0 Being a lot younger than Hoss I can\u2019t imagine him being knee high to anything, let alone a grasshopper.\u00a0 Adam told me that it wasn\u2019t so bad when Hoss was a little boy; he would trip over his own feet, spill his milk, drop food all over himself, things like that. Pa and Adam thought he would outgrow it, but the older he got and the bigger he got, the worse it got.\u00a0 Like I said, brother Hoss weighs close to three-hundred-pounds, and that makes him downright dangerous.\u00a0\u00a0 Not that he would hurt any of us on purpose, he\u2019s normally a gentle man and loves his family.\u00a0 It\u2019s just that when that fever gets ahold of him he doesn\u2019t pay attention to what he\u2019s doing or what\u2019s going on around him.\u00a0 He could step on you and not realize it!<\/p>\n

For years our pa has doused him with sulphur and molasses, but it really doesn\u2019t work all that good.\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0Adam and I suggested every year that \u00a0Hoss should be locked up in his room till summer, but Pa won\u2019t let us do that.<\/p>\n

Hoss has done a lot of damage over the years. \u00a0\u00a0Knocked down fences, left gates open and let stock out, scattered Hop Sing\u2019s chickens to kingdom come just to mention a few instances. \u00a0Not to mention the bruises all of us have gotten. \u00a0By the way, chickens are a lot harder to round up than cattle.\u00a0 Don\u2019t try lassoing a chicken, they are quick little devils.\u00a0 Last year he knocked\u00a0 Pa into the water trough.\u00a0 All of us danged near lost our hearing the way Pa bellowed ! We thought it would be safe to take Hoss fishing.\u00a0 What could happen ? What happened was he almost drowned Adam and hooked me in the \u201cponderosa\u201d with a fish hook. \u00a0He even broke his own big toe when he tripped over a rock.<\/p>\n

Remember, I said that Hoss could step on you without realizing it?\u00a0 Well, here is the story about that.\u00a0 After you hear it, you\u2019ll know why\u00a0 I want to make myself scarce.<\/p>\n

Spring came early last year and the early mild weather caught us off guard. Hop Sing always has molasses on hand, but Pa didn\u2019t have any sulphur to mix up a batch and no one really had time to go into town to get any. We were all working our tails off because we were short handed.\u00a0 A lot of the fellows who usually sign on with us in the spring hadn\u2019t shown up yet and some of the cowhands who hang around Virginia City all winter had taken jobs in the mines.\u00a0 We got through spring round up and moved the herds to the lower meadows \u00a0and to the surprise of Pa, Adam, and me nothing really happened yet. \u00a0Hoss did fall off his horse a few times. \u00a0He had been dreamy and moony and was saying, \u201cuh?\u201d a lot because he didn\u2019t hear anything the first time when spoken to.\u00a0 In fact, it was getting downright entertaining watching him at mealtimes doing things like putting syrup in his coffee and milk on his pancakes and eggs and gravy on his vegetables. But the three of us were getting nervous waiting for something to happen.\u00a0 Adam called it the sword of Damocles hanging over us.\u00a0 I asked him what that was and it turns out it\u2019s a fancy way of saying waiting for the other boot to drop. We kept reminding each other that someone needed to go get some sulfur but no one ever went.\u00a0 By that time spring was almost over and summer was around the corner and we thought that the worst was over with the fish hook incident.\u00a0 Boy howdy !\u00a0 Was I wrong !<\/p>\n

The day started with what we thought was an earthquake but was only Hoss getting tangled in his covers when he went to get up and falling out of bed.\u00a0 We ran upstairs to check if he was all right.\u00a0 He was, but it took all three of us to get him untangled and on his feet.\u00a0 Pa is usually a stickler when it comes to grooming \u00a0at the table but he even suggested that Hoss skip shaving that morning.\u00a0 Guess he pictured Hoss cutting his nose off or something.\u00a0 Adam thought that he and I should stay with Hoss till he got ready for the day in case he got all tangled up in his clothes like he did his bedding.\u00a0 I should have just left Adam there with him since he is the older brother and should be the one looking out for Hoss.\u00a0 But I couldn\u2019t do that to Adam and, besides, Hoss\u00a0 looks after me when I need looked after.\u00a0 Hoss didn\u2019t have any mishaps getting dressed except he almost knocked his wash basin off the wash stand when he was washing his face.\u00a0 I managed to catch it and got my shirt soaked.\u00a0 I left Adam straightening Hoss\u2019s shirt that he had buttoned crooked and went to change my shirt.\u00a0 I took my time changing, thinking that I would give Hoss time to get downstairs.\u00a0 I thought wrong.\u00a0 I\u00a0 got to the landing halfway down the staircase when I heard a herd of buffalo behind me and felt one of the buffalo bang into me.\u00a0 Next thing I knew I was flying through the air and bounced\u00a0 off the floor at the bottom of the stairs.\u00a0 I just sat there dazed. \u00a0I would have gotten away with just a fresh batch of bruises if Hoss hadn\u2019t got to me before Pa or Adam. \u00a0I was sitting sideways to the stairs with my legs stretched out in front of me \u00a0when Hoss rushed down the stairs.\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0\u00a0Yep!\u00a0 You guessed it.\u00a0 I felt and heard a bone crack when a size twelve boot with three-hundred pounds in it landed on my outstretched left leg!\u00a0 I let out a yell that caused Hop Sing to run out from the kitchen brandishing his meat cleaver ready to help defend the house from a Paiute attack!<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s not a bad break, Joe.\u201d\u00a0 Doc Martin assured me while he was slapping a plaster cast on.\u00a0 \u201cBut because of it being right below your knee I\u2019ll need to put the cast to the middle of your thigh. A couple of weeks in bed to get the healing started and then we\u2019ll get you on crutches.\u201d<\/p>\n

At least I would be safe for a couple of weeks while I was in bed.<\/p>\n

To add to my misery, after I was allowed downstairs Pa decided that it was a perfect time to teach me how to do the books.\u00a0 I\u2019ll never complain again about how hard Miss Jones was on me about my arithmetic when I was in school.<\/p>\n

I could tell Hoss felt bad about what happened but I had to get some kind of revenge. When he was in the house I kept him hopping, besides totting me up and down the stairs.\u00a0 \u201cHey Hoss, will you get me a glass of water?\u00a0 Hey Hoss, would you get me that book?\u00a0 Hey Hoss, would you toss me an apple?\u201d\u00a0 You get the picture.\u00a0 \u00a0Until I saw Pa giving me that look that I couldn\u2019t possibly be that thirsty or that hungry for apples and that he knew what I was doing\u00a0 and that I was in for a talking to.<\/p>\n

Well, the cast finally came off and I could put the crutches in the attic. Spring turned into summer and Hoss was back to normal.\u00a0 During the winter Dr. Martin told Pa about a tonic that was better for curing spring fever than sulphur and molasses. Pa stocked up on it so when Adam reminded him that spring had already started Pa got a bottle of it out of the storehouse and started spooning it down Hoss.\u00a0 And, by golly, it worked !\u00a0 At least we thought it did. In a way, anyhow.\u00a0 It made Hoss too sleepy to be dangerous.\u00a0 But when he fell asleep in church and drowned out the sermon with his snoring and the\u00a0 minister stopped talking and looked pointedly at us like he was saying \u201cBegone, Satan!\u201d and Pa\u2019s face turned bright red in embarrassment as we supported Hoss down the aisle and out the door Pa decided that it would be a good idea to cut the amount of tonic he was spooning into Hoss.\u00a0 It didn\u2019t help Pa\u2019s embarrassment any that all the way out of the church Hoss was waking up and muttering things like \u201cHuh?\u201d \u201cWhat?\u201d and some things we didn\u2019t catch.\u00a0 Pa was a mite put out, too, that me and Adam couldn\u2019t look at each other without laughing. Pa apologized to Reverend Fletcher later in the week and the following Sunday put double his usual amount in the collection basket and made it quite clear to the three of us that we do the same.<\/p>\n

\u201cAdam, you have to talk to Pa about not making us take Hoss to town with us tomorrow ! What\u2019s so funny?\u00a0 You want to take Hoss to town while he\u2019s got spring fever?\u201d\u00a0 My brother \u00a0was trying to stifle a laugh.<\/p>\n

\u201cSorry, little brother.\u00a0 What you said just struck me as funny.\u00a0 It wasn\u2019t that long ago Hoss was saying the same thing to me about you\u201d, Adam chuckled and patted me on the shoulder.<\/p>\n

I didn\u2019t think it was that funny. \u00a0\u201cHow about we sneak away without him\u201d, I persisted.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou really want to hear what Pa will say if we do that?\u201d Adam countered.\u00a0 \u201cCome on Joe. It won\u2019t be so bad.\u00a0 Hoss is doing better since Pa figured out how much of that tonic to give him. The two of us should be able to handle him.\u201d<\/p>\n

Well, I didn\u2019t have any choice but to go along with it, but\u00a0 I made Adam promise not to leave me alone with Hoss.\u00a0 Before we got to town Adam told me he had an idea but wouldn\u2019t tell me what it was.\u00a0 He had me drop him and Hoss of at Sheriff Coffee\u2019s office and go on and get our order filled at Cass\u2019s and to wait at the Silver Dollar. \u00a0I cringed when Hoss almost fell on Adam when he was helping Hoss out of the wagon, but, better Adam than me this time.\u00a0 I got done at Cass\u2019s and was still on my first beer and was watching a tense poker game when Adam came in the door, ordered a beer, and motioned me towards a table.<\/p>\n

\u201cHey ! Where\u2019s Hoss?\u00a0 Did you talk Sheriff Coffee into locking him up for the safety of the town?\u201d\u00a0 I asked Adam when I sat down.<\/p>\n

Adam took a long drink from his beer before he got around to answering me.\u00a0 \u201cNope, better.\u00a0 I remembered that Roy mentioned to Pa that he could use some temporary help around the office. Nothing official, just sweeping up and going and getting prisoners their meals and sorting through wanted posters, that kind of thing. \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0Well, our brother is the sheriff\u2019s new temporary office help. \u00a0He should be able to handle that. Come on, get the wagon while I get Sport,\u00a0 we have to get going in case Roy changes his mind.\u201d\u00a0 Adam practically pulled my arm off pulling me out of my chair and out the door.<\/p>\n

On the way home I finally got a chance to ask Adam why Sherriff Coffee would change his mind so quickly.\u00a0\u00a0 \u201cWhat aren\u2019t you telling me, Adam?\u201d\u00a0 which is usually a question Adam is asking me.<\/p>\n

\u201cAs I was leaving Roy\u2019s office Hoss shut Roy\u2019s fingers in a drawer! Hoss Cartwright strikes again !\u201d\u00a0 When Adam winked at me I started laughing so hard I almost drove off the road.<\/p>\n

Of course, when we got home Pa wanted to know what we did with Hoss.\u00a0 Adam told me to let him do the talking when we got home, so I happily let him since it was his idea.\u00a0 \u201cDid with Hoss ?\u00a0 You make it sound like we tied him to a tree somewhere or shut him up in an old mine!\u00a0 That hurts, Pa that you would think that we would do something with our brother.\u00a0 \u201c\u00a0 I just sat there looking insulted.\u00a0 \u201cRemember that Roy told you he needed some temporary help in his office?\u00a0 Hoss volunteered to help him out.\u00a0 He stayed in town to start helping right away and I\u2019ll take Hoss some clothes and things tomorrow.\u00a0\u00a0 Come on, Joe, let\u2019s get these supplies unloaded.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cJust a minute, you two!\u201d<\/p>\n

We stopped in our tracks; Adam with a fifty-pound bag of potatoes over his shoulder and me with two twenty-five pound bags of flour.\u00a0 \u201cI\u2019ll take Hoss\u2019s things to him and talk to him and Roy and find out if Hoss really did volunteer or you shanghaied him.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0 Adam and I unloaded the wagon while Pa muttered something about \u201cat least they didn\u2019t shanghai Hoss to China\u201d.<\/p>\n

The next\u00a0 day Pa came home from town a mite angry, well, to be truthful, very angry at us.\u00a0 It seems that Hoss wasn\u2019t at the sheriff\u2019s office.\u00a0 Roy had sent him to Martin\u2019s \u00a0Flats to deliver a prisoner named Harvey Lynch.\u00a0 He assured Pa that the fellow wasn\u2019t dangerous, only a pickpocket , but the sheriff in Martin\u2019s Flats wanted him back there because the pocket he picked was the mayor\u2019s.\u00a0 We all started to worry when Sheriff Coffee got a telegram from Martin\u2019s \u00a0Flats wanting to know where the prisoner was.\u00a0 Then he got a telegram from the sheriff of Martin City wanting to know if he knew a Hoss Cartwright and a Harvey Lynch. Sheriff Coffee and the three of us high tailed it to Martin City and found Hoss in jail along with Harvey.\u00a0 Seems like Hoss delivered his prisoner to the wrong town and Harvey told the sheriff there that he was Hoss Cartwright and Hoss was his prisoner, Harvey Lynch.\u00a0 The sheriff must be a little dim to think that Harvey would be called Hoss because he is smaller than me. Roy Coffee got the mess straightened out and sent Adam to Martin\u2019s Flats with Harvey.\u00a0 I volunteered to go with Adam, but\u00a0 Pa made me ride home with him, Hoss\u00a0 and Sheriff Coffee.\u00a0 Pa had Hoss\u2019s tonic in his saddle bag and gave him a douse even though the fever was running its course.\u00a0 Me, he told that he expected a trick like that from me but not from Adam and when Adam got home we were in for a serious talk.\u00a0 Thank goodness that I\u2019m too old for a necessary talk, let along oldest brother.\u00a0 But I could picture us chopping mountains of kindling.<\/p>\n

I was right about that.\u00a0 It seemed that we\u00a0 chopped enough kindling to supply the whole Washoe for the winter. That wasn\u2019t as bad as the serious talk.\u00a0 Adam did take all the blame but that didn\u2019t save me. The blisters on our hands were smarting from all the axe wielding. Adam\u2019s pride was smarting that a man his age was being punished like his eighteen-year-old kid brother.\u00a0 I was smarting because I didn\u2019t know a thing about what Adam was planning till afterwards but was still in trouble for it.\u00a0 And to add insult to injury, seeing Hoss and Pa lounging on the porch with lemonade and cookies watching us work!<\/p>\n

Adam\u2019s already hatching a plan for next spring.\u00a0 For a fellow who is supposed to be so smart his plan didn\u2019t work out too good.\u00a0 Maybe I should do some hatching of plans of my own.<\/p>\n
