    Farmhouse at miyagino

    Farm houses existed in Miyagino in the Meiji era in Ko, Kami, Sotokubo and Azuma, but since flat land was scarce in Ko and Kami, this photo is thought to be Sotokubo or Azuma (perhaps near the present Jonai Senior High School branch school) from the background. The laundry, agricultural products, farming tools and dress suggest that this farm was run by a small-scale land-owning farmer.==Date:unknown, Place:Hakone, Photo:Ogawa Kazumasa, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number7‐24‐0]

      Imaichi,the Nikko Road

      Although said to depict Imaichi on the Nikko Highway, the photograph does show a scene of the cedar-lined highway. Some cedar trees are visible in the centre, but it is difficult to tell whether they are a part of the highway. The rice has already been harvested, and irrigation ditches are visible next to the fields. Deciduous trees stand in the yard of a farm house. A serene farming village scene.==Date:unknown, Place:Nikko, Photo:Usui Shuzaburo, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number94‐4‐0]
