    C) he values freedom more than being tied down by owning a farm.

    Explanation:

    Thoreau's tone in this passage makes it very clear that he values freedom more than being tied down by owning a farm. Thoreau talks a big talk about owning a farm, but ultimately he values freedom and disvalues material goods.

    The post-office.

    Explanation:

    In "Where I Lived, and What I Lived For", Thoreau explains that the post-office is completely unnecessary for him. He received such few letters in his life that it isn't worth the postage, and regarding the newspaper, there's no significant information more than negative news for him, so it's useless to consume that kind of service as well.
