The American Institute Farmers' Club suggests placing money at 7 percent mortgage, apprenticing on a thrift farm, saving to buy a $1,000 starter farm, using $1,000 for stock and tools, and keeping $1,000 at interest.

Immersion dispute and political notes from old Times
A clergyman agrees to immerse a distressed woman again after she fears her nose was not submerged. Toledo citizens were arrested in Cleveland for lacking one cent stamps on perfumery bottles, though packages bore stamps. References to Grant, post office firings in Newburg, New York, and local election swings show Republican anger and Democratic gains. A fragment notes Buckwheat, milk quality, and crop mentions with scattered misspellings and garbled numbers.
