Before the ground-floor door was a huge pile of manure.

The door of the second-story room on the side of the house was open, and occupied by the rear elevation of a cow.

Was this probably the drawing-room?

But the chief feature, all around this house, was the big heaps of manure.
We became very familiar with the fertilizer in the Forest.
