A long fragment discusses Algeria cork forests, shifting acreage, and cotton and tobacco markets. It notes Florida Sumatra tobacco fetching 48 cents and Cuban sun tobacco 15 cents, with farm conversion ideas for mortgaged land. It critiques pitiful beef prices in Chicago, corn yields in Missouri, and pine log quality, plus climate differences between Illinois and St Paul. It later ponders best strawberries, packing-house pork exports to Russia, and the need for better farming and kitchen practices at home. It condemns blood sports and calls farmers to better-fed households through efficient cooking and use of resources at hand.

It also critiques beet sugar tariffs and questions tropical sugar imports.
