Wakarusa local notices carry spring signs and market notes
The Wakarusa market column from April 6 1876 reports corrected weekly prices for hams seeds and shrubs from St Clair gardens and Kilmer seeds. It notes Dr King’s coughs and consumption remedies, tax rates by assessor J C Bennett, and a stormy Atlantic breach at Long Branch with massive property loss. Local gossip covers Kinman at Syracuse Lake, church conduct, and a humorous chase over a lost tile. The piece ends with gardens blooming, roads improving, and April fool day reflections.
