Farmer and wife toil for home and land

A long poem describes a farmer and his wife laboring for the land and household, with the farmer resting in the shade after sowing and harvest time. It notes the wife bearing daily burdens from sun to sun, mending, knitting, and caring for children, while also recounting community notices of local movements, school appointments, and upcoming events in Freeport, Orangeville, and Dakota regions.

Temperance notes and beer tax debate in period piece

A long temperance column critiques beer consumption and excise revenue, citing Gladstone and Macmillan Magazine. It discusses a six percent drop in beer drinking, potential causes from teetotalism to Salvation Army influence, and notes on postal savings deposits. It also mentions Nebraska high license debates, whiskey tax evasion on bonded spirits, and concludes with a plug for Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup.
