Remarkable oil well and temperance notes across Ohio
An 1886 column surveys a Baker Russia oil well spouting 224 feet and 11,000 tons daily, contrasts Lima oil prospects, and praises The Ohio Farmer and The New York Tribune with subscription pitches. It also covers temperance resolutions, Sabbath observance, and teacher examinations plus ads for Liberty era remedies.
