What you’re looking at

This page is primarily **advertising**, dominated by Budweiser and Anheuser-Busch brewery promotions. The large eagle logo and detailed brewery specifications showcase industrial scale and capacity—typical early-1900s corporate advertising emphasizing size and modernity. The left column contains brief **satirical humor pieces** typical of Judge's style: "The Senator Left Out" mocks Senator Vardaman (a Mississippi politician) through a dialect joke about a Black tenant farmer who claims there were only three loads of corn, not four—denying the Senator his share. The joke relies on period stereotypes about dishonest sharecroppers. Other brief jokes address marriage, politics, and domestic life with light humor—nothing historically weighty. The page reflects its era: casual racial stereotyping, corporate boosterism about American industrial capacity, and genteel domestic comedy. It's primarily a commercial vehicle disguised as satirical magazine content.

The Senator Left Out. Senator Vardaman, so the story goes, once rented a plot of several acres to one of his black neighbors. The land was to be planted in corn, and the Sen- ator, then ex-Governor, was to receive one-fourth, The corn was duly har- vested, but the Senator did not receive his fourth. Meeting the negro one day he said, “Look here, Sam, have you harvested your corn?” “Yes, sah, boss, long ’go.’” “Well, wasn’t I to get a fourth?’’ “Yes, sah, boss, dat’s de truf, but dar warn’t no fo’th. Dar was jes’ three loads, and dey was mine.’” Jollities.
