A Model Farmer,

There are few 6rst.class farmers
in Mile Lacs county, and foremost
among the number stands Nj. V. B.
Cater. Twenty two years ago last
spring Mr.. Cater first arrived in Min
nesota; he located on the Capt. Ttask
farm in the town Of Baldwin, about
one mile from the village. on the Elk
River road; he resided there for up.
wards of ten years, then he sold out
to good advantage and moved on the
farm that he now occupies. in which
are 620 acres, 200 of which are under
cultivation. The pretty and com

family reside he built eleven years ago.

in the fact that he was a worker.
farmed intelligently and invested his
money prudently. Everything around
his house. and farm betokens thrift,
the village of barns and graneries are
allsin good repair and we'll filled with
hay and grain: the fences are all up
and in good shape; his horses, cattle,
sheep and hogs are sleek and fat and
look as if they were well cared for
and of cattle alone he has over 100
head; the barn yard is dotted with
stacks of hay aud his farming machin
cry is all under cover and not left
out of doors to rust and rot. AL
though the soil of Mr.. Caters farm
is rather sandy, by generous appli.
cation of manure he manages to
raise excellent crops every year; this
season off Is acres he had over 5000
bushels of as nice corn as one would
wish to see,-and it was all cribbed
more than three weeks ago, besides
his yield Of wheat. oats, rye and beans
was above the average. Mr.. Cater
is also the owner of several hundred
acres Of fine land in the eastern end
Of the township. and in Wyanettr,
Isanti county. Besides successfully
carrying on such a large farm Mr..
Cater finds time to engage extensively
in the numbering business in the win
ter season. What pity that there
are not many more such farmers in
tho county as N. Y. B. Cater.

The unlocked for snow storm or
Saturday morning caught most every
one with their "breeches down." By
IL N. the snow was six inches deer
on the streets of Princeton. Oyer.
coats and over shoes and boots were
in great demand; those who had live
stock out in the fields were hurrying
to and fro; the farmers who are be.
hind with their corn husking and
blowing wore long faces and would
hardly answer civil question; those
who are building new houses and the
unlucky individuals that have not had
their old ones underpinned were in .
very unenviable frame of mind; many
shade and ornamental trees were
weighed down and crushed by the
lead-like snow, and in fact everything
and every body looked as though the
Seasons were badly out Of joint.
