The Warner weekly sun. (Warner, Brown Co., Dakota [S.D.]) 1883-1885, 1883-09-08

Of land before the wonderful fertility of.I
the soil attracted much attention, This
gentleman knows q good thing when he
sees it.and that is the reason ne settled at
Warner at time when he had his choice
of locations in the entire James River Val
ley. Asa public man he is ever 10 the
front, and takes as much interest Ia the
welfare Of the town as he does in his own
immediate vocation, He Is universally
respected as a man Of business and is a
genial, whole-souled fellow,
Upstairs in the same building we find
the Office of
GREEN & ANDERSON,
attorneys at law, real estate, loan and in
surance agents. Mr. Greer is g graduate
of Wisconsin State University and dates
his residence in Warner from some eight
naanontlis age. Mr.. Anderson is also
from Wisconsin, and together they form
pair thoroughly conversant with every
branch of their business. These gentle
men are first-class, practical, reliable at
torneys and just as capable of conducting
the most intricate law case as they are of
finding purchasers of real estate, grant
ing loans or making out your final proof
AT present they have on hand some of
the choicest decided lands in the James
River Valley, which are offered at terms
to suit purchasers, In the loan business
they particularly excel for moderate
terms, and those in this vicinity who go
elsewhere 70 obtain money make d sad
mistake. They have been through the
mill, SO to speak, and any business en-
trusted to them will surely be transacted
in the best possible manner
| Bidding adieu to these gentlemen, which
you win be 10th to do because Of their
genial ll4nner. we viii GROSS the hall and
enter the dental parlors Of
JAY JENNINGS,

the foreeps exists. Take seat in one Of
his handsomely upholstered chairs and
let us inform You that Mr.. jennings is from
Milwaukee, in which city he successfully
practiced for number Of years, and that
his diplomas are from the best college Of
dentistry on the continent. Why, the very
appearance Of the room donates that the
proprietor understands his business.
1t your teeth need attention always re-
member that Warner has one Of the best
dentists in the west.
Let us now conduct YOU to an entirely
different scene, TO where the village srnithy
stands, and allow US to introduce you to
AUGUST E. BERG,
one of our oldest pioneers, who came here
from Baldwin, Wis, in June, 1880. Of
course at that early date the country was
nothing buta waste, naught but the luxu-
RANT prairie grass to denote the richness
of the soil, Mr.. Berg secured q claim adj
joining the town site and Immediately
erected shanty to use as blacksmith
shop. Three boards formed the roof of
this primitive abode, and many time
the pouring rain awoke the occupant from
his slumbers to find himself enveIoped in a
sheet of water. To illustrate the trials he
bore in winping for himself home IN the
golden west we mention the fact that fnd-
ing it necessary to ford the Moccasin to
have his bread baked, his method of cross
ing was to secure his clothes to the top Of
his head and plunge ina Ia CaptaiR Webb,
This trip was performed two or three times
] a week. Fer the first seven weeks he
4 earned the Apitiful sum of three dollars,
but nothing daunted he persevered until
} now his business frequently brings in $72
j q week. From April ed last to August
|, 2ssh he repaired $40 plows, besides MAX
] ing 80 new ones-a good Indication OF the
Il growth of the country. In connection is a
carriage and repair shop operated by a
first-c class workman The first season
Mr. Berg sowed seven acres Of wheat, har-
vesting therefrom 23O bushels, or about 33
: bushels per ssceree, acre, and this too on sod
ground.
