A 1913 era scene shows JOE The Book Farmer with poor land, stunted grass, and a debate on cutting wood posts and fencing. Uncle Jet Washington and Abs Lincoln Washington appear, discussing jobs, wages, and labor in a rural setting.
Joe and Link haul leaves and barnyard fertilizer across an acre to enrich soil for corn and cotton. They plan rye as cover crop, seek early cotton, and discuss seeds, yields, and markets with Mr. Somerville, aiming for crop profits and an agricultural education for Joe’s sister.

It references mother, home, work, and certain stray names, but the overall meaning is unclear and portions resemble a dreamlike monologue rather than a coherent report or event.
