L. Pierce, who resides in the j lowa colony of farmers southwest jot Cohasset, brought a couple of {ears of corn with him to Grand | Rapids, a few days ago and pre- jsented themto the Herald-Review {office as samples of what is be- | accoinplished along the corn {raising line in that vicinity. Mr. Pierce has a 200 acre farm but on account of the fact that he has been in this country but two years, has not enough under culti- vation to make farming really in- teresting, so rented the Buck farm this season and is taking care of both farms. He hopes to have enough under cultivation on his own farm next year to ‘keep him der the plow he has raised a crop of| 400 bushels of oats, has a splendid field of potatoes, and other roots and best of all has ivipe water melons, and a well ma- tured field of corn. This is go- ing some for three years resi- dence. He is going to bring some of his corn to the County fair sad that all can see the result of his efforts. Another of the wide awake Towa jfarmers is Fred Adams. He has ja farm of 160 acres well equipped. | His house is new, 26x26, two story ,epd on a goed cement founda- jtion. Then he has a new barn jrecently completed. He arrived in Itasca county in the spring of 1913, from Clear Lake, Iowa, and is going at the farming business as though he meant to do some- ‘Chingy George Harthan is also one of the hustlers with a 90 acre farm and 20 acres already under the plow. He has the twenty acres as full of crop this season as it is possible to fill it, and will clear and break more land for next sea- son. Grant Harthan bought an 80. of State land on coming to Minnesota and has cleared 15 acres. He alsq raised 2C0 bushels of oats, has a good crop of potatoes, garden stuff and corn. He has been in the colony since the spring of 1912. Casper Zoble has 80 acres and has 15 acres cleared with a fine set of buildings erected and tne farm mostly fenced. He also has a good crop of the products that are sure in Minnesota. Ben Harthan has 80 acres, with 15 acres cleared and a good crop this year. His oat crop was large enough to feed his ‘horses and then he has a fodder crop for cattle. In the corn lie sowed cane, which will add immeasureably to the worth of the fodder. George Hickok settled on 80 acres and went immediately ‘to clearing and as a result has 15 acres under the plow and a good crop of potatoes, oats, fodder and turnips. Sam Harthan, another one of the colony, is g6ing into the sheep business in spite of the free wool scare. He had a drove of sheep this summer on some of the land that he contemplates clearing and jthe animals came so near eating all of the weeds and young trees that he has concluded that a fine way was discovered to do some of the clearing. He has been a single man until about three weeks ago when Miss Ruth Best a popu- lar young woman of the neighbor- hood, consented to help him run the farm. John Van Patter has been a resident of this vicinity for” the 25 acres cleared and a good crop ON COHASSET LAND \Colony of Iowa Settlers Make A! Much Land Cleared—Several Will’ busy. On the land that he has un-; this season. He raised 400 bushels of oats, quite a field of barley and several ofher crops. Mr. Van Patter has been doing road work as a side line for some time, anu several contracts. Henry Harthan has 160 acres on Rice lake with improvements that make the farm look like he might have resided there for a quarter of ja century. He has 30 acres clear- a good crop on every foot He, too, is going to raise ehecp and has a large herd of them already browsing on his farm. \He knows the sheep business and considers this an ideal country for them. George Johnson is another of [the hustlers with a 160 acre farm ard a large clearing. He is stock- |ing up with sheep and expects to |raise quite a drove in another year. Charles Rodrick has 80 acres with a clearing of 15 acres and every bit of it producing some- thing this season. | The Hindelrich Brothers, Fred, William and George, have all to- ‘gether 6CO acres of as fine land as can be had here. They have ,;cleared 100 acres and have a erop this year which amounts to some- thing. The brothers came to Min- nesota, some years ago from Litch- ‘field, Minnesota, and liked the country so well that they later ‘persuaded their father to come. He thought that the boys were ex- ageerating when they told him about the possibilities of Itasca county, but after having resided here for a season he became more infatuated with the prospects than Sis scrs and now would not set- tle anywhere else. ' Gene Fletcher, originally from Manley, Iowa, went to Dveil’s lake, North Dakota, but did not like the country and came on to Cohas- set and settled in the colony He has 100 acres with 25 acres cleared and a good crop of oats, potatoes, hay, fodder and other truck. Gabe Goodell has a 200 acre farm and 40 acres cleared.

Mr. Johnson was about 35 years of age end has lived in and around Cohas set for about ten years. At the time of the accident he was em- ployed by Owen Skelly in loading logs on a car.. In some manner a hook holding one end of a log slip- ped off, allowing the log to swing loose. Mr. Johnson was ten or fif- ems that when the hook broke iway he endeavored to catch hold of the log and swing it back agains the car, but the end of the log struck him above the left eye, fractured his skull. His companiong rushed to his assistance, but Mr. ‘chrson lived but a few moments and was dead before the physician ‘culd reach him. The body was taken to Grand Rapids, by Under- taker Kremer and buried Tuesday afternoon. Survey Cohasset Road. F. G. Bradley, assistant to State Engineer Lidberg, accompanied by Ed. Burke, came to Cohasset, Sun- day night and will make an offi+ cial survey of the state highway be tween Deer River and Cohasset. Work has already started but there seems to be a few places in the road that need straightening out. There are now 25 men at work. The half of the road near Cohasset is to be under the direc- tion of Commissioner O’Brien and the Deer River end will be attend- ed to by Chairman King. The $5500 appropriated by the board is to be utilized by them tc improve as much as possible. Cutting Hills Dowa The town council of Big Fork has recently decided fo do some improving of roads leading into that place and will begin by cut- ting down the hills at the Charles Peloquin place. They will also put a corrugated culvert in the ravine at the foot of the Mills. Hereto- fore it has been almost an im- possibility to drive up the steep grade at that point and the im- his arrival but in spite of that he jhas cleared a good sized garden patch, done some fencing, and built a frame house. He will take up the poultry business’ and before long expects to own a model poul- try farm. John Harthan came last spring and has been living with one of hs brothers. He has 40 acres some of which has been cleared and a crop preduced. He is single so far, but the farming prospects are too good for that to last long. The above story is about a set- tlement, as it were, of people near- ly all of whom came from Iowa. They were attracted here by the low priced land and the- feeling that this is the land of certainty. One hardship has been experi- enced by all and that has been the lack of roads, but this difficulty is jrapidly disappearing. Tt will © be; seen that these men have raised} grain enough this season to feed their stock. In speaking of his ;settling here. Mr. Pierce remarked to the Herald-Review that he did not look into hte grain questions ; quite close enough before coming here. The cost of grain to feed a | work team is enormous, and_ is 1 tler. The great need here is a kind of corn that will mature. Mr. Pierce thinks that he will be able to solve the problem in a very few years. He has certainly made a good start this year. Another observation made © in this colony, is that the Blue ber- ries that grow wild here can be anade io grow treble their wild si y ceullivation. This fact was observed by acvicent. Some berries were growing 1m a hog pasture and the animals roofed among | the ruvis. The herries growing on the bushes where the hogs rooted gr much larger than on untilled land. past six years, has a 160 acre farm,|This was the start of Blueberry cultivation. enough to discourage the new set-|~ provement will add greatly to the convenience of the public. | ITASCA) [BRAND GUARANTEED PURE PASTEURIZED MILK ss oh Ph per quart .07 Cream, whipping_ « 35 Cream, cooking..__ ih .25 Buttermilk. a es -05 Buttermilk. -gallon 15 Cottage Cheese_.-_ pound .10 We Are Ready to Furuish the Goods at any Time of the Day.
