My Lord the Elephant Saves Two Men from Death in Forest
A hunter recalls his elephant Moweha, loyal and intelligent, who breaks his chain during a stampede and carries him and a native servant to safety. The rogue herd pursues, but the trained elephant pauses, recognizes his former master, and ferries them back to safety after a ten hour journey. Upon return, the elephant is honored and freed, celebrated as a symbol of strength and gratitude.

Diversified Farming Aims to Raise Grass Grain and Stock Together
Diversified farming argues that growing large crops of grass and grain and feeding them to stock creates a sustainable cycle. Stock manure sustains soil fertility, while concentrated sale of meat, dairy and wool yields better prices. Growing varied crops and feeding to different stock reduces risk and stabilizes income, though many farms still need green manuring and fertilizers to maintain soil fertility.
