A note from Scandia reports a new walking cane industry started by local craftsman Sam Benedict. The piece also recalls Tenino banking turmoil where Citizens Bank closed, the Chamber of Commerce issued redeemable script during the lull, and local people contributed fruit and plants to The Journal. It ends with a satirical poem on taxation and a Montana-like tax tale from a county auction.
