and blacksmith shop in Chicago Mr.,
French was offered 160 acres of land IN
what is now the heart Of Chicago fol-
5000, and had the money .in his pocket
to pay for it, but did not invest.
The subject of this brief sketch was
born In the town of Stratford, Coos
county, New Hampshire, September 9
1901. He was one Of a family of eleven,
seven boys and four girls All are de-
ceased except one brother, who is now
70 years old. In 1887 he was married
to Miss Nancy Stevens, who has ever
been true helpmeet. They live now
on the homestead of 800 acres which he
claimed in 1886 and bought at the land
sales in 1889 at one dollar and quarter
an acre. 1t is one of the finest farms in
Kenosha county, the soil being rich and
productive, and beautifully rolling, with
an abundance of timber.
Some time previous to 1850 Mr.. French
built large and commodious brick resi-
dence
When man can build as he chooses
and crafty his taste and feelings it is
said his house will be true reflection
of himself. Mr.. French's house is plain,
substantial, generous in its proportions,
and has an air of solidity and honesty
that does not belle its owner. Mr..
French was happily blest with a strong
constitution, robust health and great
capacity for work, and his success in life
was as sure as the sunrise. He has
never engaged in any business but farm
ing In early days, when wheat growing
was profitable, he used to raise about
thousand bushels per year. Afterwards
he went into sheep and kept flock of
about 500 for many years, and single
years clip has sold as high as 81 800.
Mr.. French has gratifed his mental
tastes by the reading Of some of the |
best standard books, favorite among
which was the life and works of Josephus. |
He now enjoys reading and game Of
checkers as well as ever, and his mind |
seems to have lost but little Of its vigor. |
Bodily infirmities are however pressing
very heavily. Last spring he had a very
severe attack of illness, from which his
recovery for while seemed doubtful.
He attended the old settlers reunion
last year and seemed to enjoy it to the
full. 1t is doubtful if his health will per
NIT him to attend this year. His next
reunion will be with those who have
crossed to the other shore.

1t is stated in French agricultural
Journals that Frenca cheese makers are
not satisfied unless they get from $3.50
to $500 per annum from each COW.
This is owing to their expertness and
thoroughness in the manufacture of

district of France has attained celeb
rity for the making of some particular
variety of cheese, developing into a
special and important industry.
