Foxy old farmer and a bundle of odd tales
A rambling set of rural anecdotes describes a foxy farmer trading for gold while milking cows and selling eggs, a wealthy transformation, and misadventures with butter prices and beef costs. A test of a farmer’s son ends with a joke about politics, then reflections on nature’s supposed mistakes, seeds in oranges, and a Dakota teacher trick. A Midlands farm tragedy is recounted with grim humor.
