The Function of the Farmer and Credit Practices
A discussion on farm implements and credit in early prairie economies. It contrasts time and cash prices, notes high interest charged to farmers, and argues that implement firms and banks insure against loss by embedding insurance in prices. The piece questions whether this is the farmer's function versus corporate risk protection and highlights perceived inequities in credit access.

Behold the Decanter Mix Up of Danzig Feast
A tale recalls a Lord Mayor of Danzig feast where guests poured wines into a common decanter. Otto Flunk, instead of wine, added water to his contribution hoping it would blend unnoticed. The mixing produced a watered result believed to improve the shared beverage, though the plan relied on an illusion of quality.
