Jenny of Cottonwood. 1) visited the big oil chrusher of | Spencer Kellorg Co., and seen’ how linseed oil was made. It isa most interesting pro- cess, and well worth the time of | any one to see. Huge presses | operated by linseed oil being forced through large cylinders, | by a motor driven pump, | squeezes the oil from the flax, leaving a residue that is as hard | and like an oak board. This board is ground up into oil cake meal. | January 22nd I left on the Soo) line, for Marshfield, Wis., and| after a short stay there went on| to Marathon City. | Fred Nuxoll formerly of Cot- tonwood, conducts a modern) garage there and is prospering. | Mrs. Peter Seubert nee Kate) Kaufman, also a former resident | of Cottonwood is comfortably | located on a large dairy farm close to town.

My next stop was = ft the latter little place, I was the] #0 Hilbert and St. John, Wis. guest at the home of Matt Kees, (a brother of Mrs. J. F. Jenny) I was there only four days, when four of the family in rapid suc- cession, were stricken with the flu. This was about February of course I was quaranteed with | ; them for three weeks. They had 49 head of stock in the barn and I came in handy to do chores and assist about the house. While the folks were kind hearted and I felt at’ home, yet with the ever present anxiety of trying to keep imune from the dread disease, and yet be in the very midst of it, it was not the most pleasant experience. Those bitter cold days never seemed longer, yet I was deeply Ws grateful that I kept well, and was able to be of service to oth- ers. Happy was I when the) free again to go where I pleased. | I spent two weeks visiting various farms in that section. It was now late in March, the longest and most severe winter, that I passed through in sixteen years. There was hard- ly a let up of the continous ex- treme cold, and stormy weather | from the 25th of November un-| til March 9th. Fagerly I yearned for mild winters of Idaho. y next move was to New Holstein a prosperous city with | about 1600 people. There I met a brother of August Schroeder the| and enjoyed a short visit with js him. It was interesting to learn| that he had taught school near} Keuterville, Idaho about 25) years ago.
