The Sioux 39 County Bee from Rock Valley Iowa lists GL Hurd as editor and proprietor with the paper’s contact telephone number 10.
Local and personal notices highlight village life with Mrs M Hurd dressmaking visits, travel to Sioux City, insurance rates via J C Vitzthum, and various errands. Excursions, barbed wire, nails and general ads weave through reports of farms, markets, and community events amid weather damage, births, and social gatherings around Rock Valley and Hull.
Enrollment stands at 191 as the Sioux County Normal Institute ends its session Friday. A reception for teachers was held at Dorcas Hall. The afternoon and Saturday forenoon conclude the 1898 annual session. Conductors, instructors, and the Sioux County Teachers Association receive praise for earnest, profitable work.
