Desert survival math puzzle tied to old buffalo hunts
A fragment from a historic newspaper page shows a desert travel riddle about four men with five days of supplies. As each man turns back with just enough food to reach the camp the final man contemplates how long he can continue before returning safely, with an answer credited to yesterday's Twizzler. The page also includes revenue figures for taxes and education programs, plus unrelated notes and a bookish cartoon caption.
Puzzle of Odd Clues Across The Paper
A cryptic cross letter puzzle lists numerous tangled clues across many numbered slots. The scrambled hints mix languages, names, and objects, suggesting a thematic word-fit challenge with references to ancient scripts, currencies, biology and astronomy.
