Local notes stray from 1872 town life and temperance

A July 1872 column from Lacon covers market signals for peaches and tomatoes, a Wenora circus, Everett's cigars and photograph albums, and sale promos. It notes town updates on schooling, church and temple activity, road and water power talks, a paper mill expansion, temperance push, street safety, and upcoming village incorporation plans. It also lists civic posts, officers, and a water power meeting, with reports on local deaths, farm animals rules, and river navigation issues.
