The Ames Times quotes a Mitchell South Dakota Argus editorial noting graduates from an Iowa agricultural college return to farming, arguing scientific farming brings profits. A long column discusses opinions on reciprocity, politics, and local publishing, with editorials contrasting Ames Times and Cedar Rapids Des Moines coverage.
A fragmented piece mixes a dramatic critique of a troublesome nuisance with a railroad anecdote about a conductor signaling a stop. It plates a rambling mock sermon on human folly beside a vivid, if garbled, story of a train wreck caused by signaling errors. Local notices mention Ames and Des Moines residents amid social updates.
