A sequence of farm editorial notes argues for practical livestock choices and prudent living. It urges dual purpose sheep over cows, criticizes wasteful spending, praises road improvements by volunteers, advises seed corn preservation, condemns eagle hunting, warns about lightning risks to windmills, promotes college educated farmers, extols aesthetic value of domestic animals, and highlights sweet clover as a soil binder.
The piece notes that corn benefits from frequent cultivation from emergence to tasseling and even after silks form. It argues that more frequent, thorough cultivation yields better results, and that three plowings suffice for some while four or five may be used by others, but the principle is to cultivate often for a better crop.
A child vows to reform and do better after circus day. He plans to work hard, obey parents, share, be polite, neat, and patient, resisting playing late or asking for extra treats until after the circus. The piece captures a goaded resolve to change before a festive event.
