Ladysmith news-budget. [volume] (Ladysmith, Rusk County, Wis.) 1907-1927, 1918-06-21

The big spring drive of logs is on
now, and at this writing the bulk of
them are slipping over Big Falls at
lively rate. About forty men are en-
gagged in the work and the logs will
soon be landed at the mills in Lady
smith.
A finer spring for burning and seed
ing was never had in Upper Wisconsin
than this.
One man on the Big Falls road has a
fine bunch of Angora goats which cost
wethers for use at his camp, sold one
kid, and has the spring clip. He has
already gotten his money back for the
purchase price, and has another wether
to kill, and still has billy, five nan
MES and four nanny kids, which are
all clear profit in six months.
Victor SchalliOl, who owns fine
section Of land on the eight-mile cor
ner, has recently placed fifty head of
young heifers on his pasture land
Mr.. Schalliol is the right kind of a man
to succeed in this country. He has 20
acres cleared near the road, and is
clearing more land farther back ON his
section. Mr.. SchalliOl is a very prac-
teal business man and financier, and
when he sold some large interests he
owned last year, he naturally looked
for an investment, and very : wisely
picked out the section of land above
mentioned. That he made no mistake
i'll locating here is manifested by the
fact that soil experts who have exam
med the soil northeast of Ladysmith,
pronounce it to be the best in northern
Wisconsin, and as good as is to be
found anywhere.
Todd Schalliol is busily engaged in
fencing his section of land which lays
just west of G. NJ Dailey's farm, and
southwest of the new schOOIhOuse on
the Big Falls road. Mr. SchalliOl has
81 big steers grazing on his land this
summer.
c. NJ. Daley, who moved to his farm
II miles northeast of this city on the
Big Falls road last fell is busily en-
gagged with crew of men in clearing
the fine land on his west 80, which
corners with the new schOolhouse. Mr..
Daley, who is a carpenter, has built
a new, modern house, and will later
build modern barn to accommodate
his fast growing herd of HOlstein cat
tie, of which he has 10 head of heifers
headed by a high producing sire, and
to date has fine calves. The man
who sticks to the dairy busciness here
is sure to prosper.
Nathan Mann, who owns a farm at
Gilman, is making a visit at the home
of NJ. 0. EmmOns
Herbert Turner came to this coun-
try from southern Wisconsin last
summer and moved onto his 100 acres
of land north of TheO Spiegelberg'
farm. Mr.. Turner has a good set of
buildings erected, and has some land
broken up and in crops. Also has a
fence on about half of his land which
| he seeded to grass. Here is another
case of wild land one year-improved
farm the next
Mr.. Warner, the r. r. engineer, who
bought an eighty between the Spiegel-
berg and Turner farms, is in Chicago
| moving his family here to the farm.
His son, Frank, is here tending the
land, and already has several acres
cleared and planted to. potatoes and
| garden truck. This country is all
right and men who get busy on their
land soon become Independent.
Our cheese factory is doing a good
business. More patrons are being
added as the country settles up.
| M. 0. EmmOns, who owns nearly all
of Sec. 1865 has good substantial
set of buildings along the pike near the
middle of the section. The house yard
of 21a acres is nicely enclosed with
woven wire, as is also the farm yard
of about an acre and half. A new
woven wire fence is completed along
the mile of road on the west and south
| side of his land, and the same is being
erected on the north mile. This will
soon be one of the ideal stock farms
of Rusk county, as it is nearly all
seeded to tame grass which is fine
stand.
| II. c. Jones, the broad minded land
man, owns an eighty acre piece Of land
just south of Herbert Turner's farm.
Mr.. Jones is improving this land with
