Antique December 1911 E. W. Howe's Monthly, a farmer's magazine for town people, from Potato Hill Farm in Atchison, Kansas, in very good condition. It measures 7" x 4 1/2", contains 64 pages and includes stories about current events of the time, along with many quotes of wisdom. Truly an interesting read. Edgar Watson Howe (1853 - 1937) was an American novelist and newspaper and magazine editor in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He fought for the Union in the Civil War and established a newspaper Bethany, Missouri to advocate his cause. Following successful, but short lived, endeavors operating newspapers in Colorado and Nebraska, Howe established "The Globe" in Atchison, Kansas in 1877 (Now the "Atchison Daily Globe"). He is perhaps best known, however, for "E. W. Howe's Monthly" (1911 - 1913), a periodical in which he was the sole writer (though freely and frequently quoting the writings of others), and one in which he would pontificate his political view and thoughts on the news of the day. An excellent source of additional information can be found in "A Critical Review of E. W. Howe's Monthly" a master's thesis by Della Josephine Heckert of Kansas State College, Pittsburg, Kansas (1961). Extant copies of the Monthly are scarce, and only a handful are found in libraries. Enjoy!
