Inconsistent townspeople

They voted to keep prostitution in their town and several episodes later when Dr. Quinn starts a library they want to ban and confiscate books including one for having prostitutes as characters? Hank and his place were noticeably absent from that episode, but Myra showed up more than halfway through with Jake reminding her of her past, and how she shouldn't want any girls following in her footsteps. Having a whorehouse in your town would do more to turn young girls to prostitution than the presence of a novel.
They wouldn't let Matthew play on their baseball team claiming he was too young (Robert E. and Loren were playing despite their age), but he becomes sheriff later in the season.

I never watched this show but I just have to comment on your post. Seems to me that any girl that would turn to prostitution back then wouldn't even know how to read & the women who did know how wouldn't need to?

Gold miners, track layers, cowboys, soldiers, etc in places with few women had urges with limited places to spend their earnings. Camp followers could make good money under the circumstances by following the men. More than they would doing domestic work.
On the other end of the spectrum, you'd have homeless prostitutes who'd travel with a deerhide to throw on the ground and would work for a quarter. Misfortunes in their lives, lack of opportunity, drug dependency, or mental illness could send them there.
