Farewell and news notes in a Missouri college cow record
A fragmented column notes farewell lines and a garden path motif, then reports Missouri Chief Josephine the prize cow at University of Missouri breaking the world milk record with 11,556 pounds in four months at 96.4 pounds daily. It compares Josephine to Corantha Fourth Johanna and claims the cow’s yearly yield far surpasses average annual milk. The item closes with an unrelated real estate loan offer from Bassett Realty Co. in Lamar, Missouri.

Cost of living vs dying provokes grim humor in notice
A dated humor piece contrasts costs of living with dying, noting shaves at ten cents alive versus one dollar after death, a $25 overcoat versus a $100 wooden one, and a cemetery keeper charging two cents per hour for potatoes versus four times that for burial. It cheekily calls the country’s costs reasonable and shifts to personal notices about moving residence on South Main Street and taking dressmaking orders at a new location, plus a lodging ad at St James Hotel.
