A 1908 column discusses transplanting potatoes by a tramp gardener who replots and moves hills to improve yield. The narrator mocks shortcuts, reflects on human fallibility, and considers gardening as an art guided by nature and spirit, citing Julia Ward Howe and a Washington Star article favoring curved borders over straight lines.
A reflective piece ponders how the moon stirs love, ghosts, and infinity, while recalling a wandering gardener named Mike. Born in Rhode Island, he speaks to goats, teaches children, and shares stories of the Motherairy in a rural, sunlit farm setting. The narrator muses on mysticism and memory across lands and time.
James A. Edgerton reflects on finding peace in belief that God guides through people and events. He argues not to worry about world affairs, embraces a personal duty to society, and endorses humane, genuine living aligned with justice and humanity.
The Tribune publishes a railroad timetable listing east bound No 6 No 4 and No 1a from Omaha to Council Bluffs with departure in Omaha at 9 15 pm and 6 60 am and connections at Malvern Hastings Emerson Red Oak and Chicago with station stop times and arrivals for Malvern Tabor and other points.
