Mules and modern remedies in early American farming

A Long rambling letter extols the stubborn persistence of a chronic dyspepsia and the author’s trials with treatments, water cures, and hard living. It pivots to a tribute to George Washington for introducing mules to U.S. farming, detailing royal gifts and crossbreeding through the Malta and Royal Gift jack line leading to widespread mule use in the South.

Salt Fights Worms and Saloons in A Winter Rag

A column of brief notes discusses a cabbage worm counter by sprinkling salt on affected plants in Central Ohio, praises a housewife, and shifts to a satirical look at Vermont saloon cross border trade. It also lauds Ex Postmaster Creswell’s quiet retirement and recounts a sailor crew debating a comet sighting. A London correspondent notes lack of press on Mr Sarto’s marriage and a cosmetic claim about sin tan removal.
