Farming risks and brave new ideas in 19th century farming
An old newspaper clipping discusses farming entrepreneurship and risk taking. It notes that not all new methods succeed but some pay off, urging farmers to explore new crops and varieties. It cites individuals pursuing temperance, education, and industry, and includes varied anecdotes from Canada to Wisconsin about progress, scorn for free trade, and curious events such as a high jump exhibition and a scorpion bite incident.
