boy pushed my head in the saucer
but didn't like the looks of the

The Early Days in Spring Valley
BY Joseph Andrews

Before leaving Spring Valley
| wish to mention three young
men who now live here and
were either born in the Valley
or Just outside It's limits. They
are Thomas Goodhope. James
\ Sherard and Thomas @.
Georgeson. These three men
are among our leading citizens
and are bound to keep in the
lead, both as to wealth and good
citizenship. The first two are
each building and have nearly
completed two of the finest farm
houses to be found in Turner Co.
Among those who came in later
and are entitled to have their
names placed upon the honor
roll as good, progressive and
upright citizens are Frank
and Wendell Drummer who have
just Dissolved a partnership of
Of nineteen busy, prosperous
years, in which by hard work
and good business ability, they
have aquired a competence.
Others are ID. j. and Howard
Thompson and John i8uckstead
who died last summer, farmers,
breeders of Short horn cattle,
who from a small beginning have
built up large and prosperous
business.
Among the sons of the pio-
neers with whom [ am personally
acquainted, and have chosen
farming as their life work are
Ned Fessenden, Will and Char
lie Sherard, Harry and Andie
Nelson, Andrew and Harry
Christensen and John and
George Mellegaarde who altho
working on rented farmes, show
oy their pluck and energy that
they are, chips of the old
block" and are bound to win in
heir struggle for wealth, an in
dependent rural home. | omit
ed in it's proper place the name
Of Fred Flyger. He came here
, With his father when boy and
Rhas made it his home ever since.
He settled on the n. ID. i of sec.
26. He is one OF our leading
citizens, and has one Of the best
and prettiest farm homes in the
Township.
Some twenty years ago Reub-
en- Woodward with his wife and
twelve children moved here
from Wis. and bought the old
Edgerton farm then owned by
James Andrew. Mr.. Woodward
was a veteran of the civil war,
and in poor health from lung
trouble and lived but a few years
after coming here. And the
widow with her large family tc
support and care for, in faith
and hope and with mothers
love took up the task of caring
for her own. In which work
she was nobly assisted by the
older boys and girls.
