Irkutsk Crowned World Wicked City by Banker George Woodruff
George Woodruff, an American banker, spent two weeks in Irkutsk last October and calls it the wickedest and fastest city in the world. He reports lavish betting, high priced wine, diverse women, vibrant opera, and open gambling under police protection. He notes many millionaires, convict heritage, local gold mines, and late night cafe life with Russians and Parisians alike.

Potash Hunt Underway In Nevada Near Las Vegas
A New York backed expedition probes Clark County land near Las Vegas for a potash deposit to reduce dependency on Germany and Austria. If a viable mine is found, it could spur more prospecting in Nevada, aided by cheaper transportation via the Clark railroad. The effort hinges on Congressional funding to expand prospecting, as potash is key for soils and citrus farming in the region.

Saving Tanks During a Freeze in Farm Journal Advice
The Nebraska Farm Journal explains a simple fix for winter stock water: place a rail or post inside open tanks so the ice expands upward rather than bursting the tank bottom. This same method also protects rain barrels, tubs, and pails by using a proportionate wooden piece to create a weak point from top to bottom.
