The Denison review. [volume] (Denison, Iowa) 1867-current, 1919-07-02

farm comprises LOU acres ana is one
of the best improved farms along the
Charter Oak road. The buildings were
all put up during the past year, and
the house Is very substantial and at
tractive one. 1t is 32XS2 with full
basement, and was built with little
regard to expense as the owner built
for comfort wherein he can spend his
declining years. The interior is fin
ished in a way to do credit to a much
larger and more expensive farm, and
is we'll arranged throughout. A new
barn is 32x50 with the horse stalls in
the basement, which is of concrete; a
hog house 40x20, with. plenty Of light
and ventilation; a double corn crib,
garage, and many smaller buildings
comprise the housing equipment, and
all are new and well painted.

We mention right here another ten
ant who is fast coming into his own,
when we speak of Fred w. Kunze, who
Lives Oh his mothers farm in Hanover
township, miles east of Charter Oak.
| He is working 100 acres, and the
lday we were at his place was cultivat-
ing corn, and had the help of young
man. His corn was about knee high
and gave every prospect of a fine crop.
Seventeen head of cattle were in the
lpasture on this place, and we noticed
a very fine looking Aberdeen-Angus
bull in the herd Mr. Kunze informed
us that he had purchased this animal
from George Nedermeyer, and thought
he had made good buy. This young
man has SO head OF Poland China hogs
and sold a Car load of feeders some
time ago, for which he received a good
tprice. Mrs. KunZe, the mother who
owns the farm, believes in keeping the
buildings and fences in ship shape,
and we found that a very liberal
quantity OF paint had only recently
been applied to all the, buildings.
Another place that had every ap.
pearance OF being new, and one that
pride was showed in the upkeep, is the
| 100 acre farm owned by Nick Sasges,
and is located about five miles east
Of Charter Oak right on the Denison-
Sioux City cutoff road Everything
about this place looked fresh and new
l
house was not recently built she said
no, only slightly remodeled. A new
porch at the rear of the house, we'll
| screened in, was one of the new acqui-
sitions to the place, and it was nicely
arranged The home was equipped
with gas light, and was very conven-
lent from labor saving standpoint.
Mrs. Sasges is a housekeeper of more
than ordinary ability, as was shown
| by the appearance of her home. She
raised $50 young chickens this season,
and cared for the milk from number
of cows, and when we called was very
must interested in lovely little babe,
born on Christmas day, last, and chris
tened Delane. The Sasges' have been
married ~ years, and soon after their
marriage moved to the present loca-
ton. where they have delightful
home. 'Mr. Sasges has Is head of cat
tie, 20 young pigs, and Is brood sows
Of the Duroc breed His herd boar
was purchased from his brother, An
drew, and is a splendid type of the
DurOc breed. i@r 5t.@a -
The many friends and neighbors of
Miss Louise Glockzein, who is living
with her brother on the home place,
five miles east of Charter Oak, in Han
over township, will be pleased to learn
that she. is now able to be up and
around, and spends some time each
day out in the open doing a little gar
den work, as the inclination moves
her. She was i'll from the first of
March until we'll up in June, suffering
from the effects of the flu, and while
she is daily gaining strength, she only
weighs 50 pounds at this time. We
visited at her home on last Friday,
and she told Of a very heavy rainstorm-
that had visited that vicinity only the
week before. The water came down
the pasture at so great a rush that 81
head of cattle feeding in the pasture
were carried down stream, and wore
ALMOST drowned. On this farm we're
50 head of white face cattle and 100
Duroc hogs. There are $50 acres of
land In the place, and the boys were
working 200 acres. Miss Louise re-
ported the raising of $50 Plymouth
Rock chickens. and said she was
great fancier of this strain of chicken.
