Deep Plowing Promoted to Weathering Drought
A Tennessee paper urges farmers to plow deep to trap rain and sustain crops through drought. The Macon Telegraph cites a high sandy soil case where shallow plowing doomed corn, while deep furrows preserved moisture. Reports also note fertilizer experiments by A. J. Pound in Dooly improving yields.

Sleep and the wolves and a western trapper
An old weathered trapper wandered along the main street of a western village and entered a small meetinghouse. In a sermon about the sleep and the wolves the trapper muttered a quip about wolves spoiling the play, prompting a brief interruption. The scene shifted to a political note as all Democratic Senators were invited to a reception by the Manhattan Club after the Senate’s special session.

Endowment Policy Promises Family Support If Death Occurs
The article argues that an Endowment Policy provides for family welfare in case of early death and for the holder in old age after twenty years with over seven percent interest. It asserts the policy’s reliability, noting that even if the policyholder dies, full benefit is payable to the beneficiary. General Dearborn is cited, claiming that among one hundred merchants few gain independence.
