German Thrift and Roadside Stones in Property Value
A historical excerpt describes stones laid along roadways boosting local property values. Peasants freed from duties are hired to break stones and repair the roadbed, funded by selling fruit-tree crops planted beside the road. Purchasers ensure fruit is not stolen, while road commissioners profit from widespread highway fruit sales. Seventy eight profit schemes affected tens of thousands of workers last year. An ad then promotes St Jacobs Oil for rheumatic and neuralgia relief, touting immediate effect and decades of use, with sizes priced at 25 and 66 cents.
