A collage of local business notices and price hints for Glenwood shops from a 19th century issue, including barber and bakery ads, homely medicine endorsements, lumber and hardware offers, and a detailed Mills County tax table showing real estate and personal property valuations, district levies, and special taxes.
D A Morris of Oaktaguship petitioned Mille County Board for one thousand dollars claiming a February 17 incident on a defective Oak township highway caused a permanent disability and alleged Dr Burges county physician provided incompetent treatment. The board quickly rejected the claim, leaving Morris to pursue court action if in earnest.
The Mills county valuation is stated as taxable property totaling 4 608 651 dollars, with a natural value about 18 500 000 dollars in print. The piece questions accuracy, notes possible underassessment, and jokes about the county’s true worth. It also recounts a 1899 marriage in Glenwood and a series of ads for remedies, trade offers, and a lost shawl notice.
