Hunter's Quicksand Ordeal and the Noble Horse Rescue
A hunter recounts sinking in quicksand after a deer hunt, the horse breaking free the hunter, and a perilous rescue. He reflects on guilt over killing the doe, recalls the dramatic struggle, and praises the horse's aid. The narrative then shifts to vivid rural scenes of Pennsylvania valleys, farms, and old-time country life with portraits of farmers and a mountain landscape.

Caught in a Desert Hunt on the Texas Plain
In the western Texas interior near El Cano Estacado two old hunters Buck Stradlin and Tom Snuffle join a narrator for a sport trip. After venturing into a barren dry stretch they spot antelopes on a grassy slope, decide to stalk via a hidden watercourse, and edge toward a wormwood clump on a riverbank for a possible ambush.

Take Care of the Fruit Trees
The article discusses historical farming practices for fruit trees, noting Puritan tolerance, seasonal care, and changing fashions toward orchard culture. It warns that improper soil and overfeeding lead to blight and poor fruit, advocating root fertilization mulching thinning and attentive care to vigor and longevity. It also briefly mentions a distant, unrelated African custom and a stray observation on bee sting care.
Management of Grass Lands by J B Moon Esq Concord Mass
Joust B Moon of Concord Massachusetts discusses grass land practice. He plows up established turf every five to six years and keeps about twenty five acres in grass with swale hay for four horses and thirty cattle. He sells fifty tons of hay annually and feeds garden refuse and corn stalks to stock. He yields two hay crops per eight years, the second combined with swale hay and garden refuse. He notes moist land favors heavy hay crops and attributes high yield to inversing aftermath grazing, contrasting with a neighbor who grazed post harvest and failed to match Moore's yields.
