Why It Pays to Read for Farmers and Workers
This piece argues that mental exercise through reading strengthens the mind as a tool to guide the body in work. It says reading, even of erroneous material, trains reasoning, concentration, and planning, and that farmers especially gain by absorbing others’ ideas to boost effort and profitability.

The article reflects on single women labeled old maids, suggesting heart histories mark them with pathos and discipline.
