On Sunday mornings Squealer, holding down a long strip

of paper with his trotter, would read out to them lists of

figures proving that the production of every class of

foodstuff had increased by two hundred percent, three

hundred percent, or five hundred percent, as the case

might be. The animals saw no reason to disbelieve him,

especially as they could no longer remember very clearly

what conditions had been like before the Rebellion. All

the same, there were days when they felt that they would

sooner have had less figures and more food.
