Just a little update on the saloonkeeper/wheelbarrow story.
I still don't know precisely what the Farmer's Home was, but apparently they served food there. From the Hobart Gazette "General News Items" of 12/9/1904: "Hot roast beef at the 'Farmer's Home' next Saturday evening. Hans Thune."
On that same date, under "Application for License," Hans Thune gives one of several notices that he is applying for a license to serve liquor at an unnamed establishment on the northeast corner of Third and Center Streets — I don't know if it's the same place.
In the 12/23/1904 "General News Items," Hans Thune announced that the Farmer's Home would serve roast deer on Saturday evening.
