MINISTER is LIVING
CLOSE TO NATURE

Rev. W. 0. King is nicely located on
/ little farm of 16 acres one mile east
IF the paper mill. He and his good
wife moved onto this farm Sept. 5,
1919, and are well pleased with their
new home.
They came to Ladysmith twenty
years ago and at that time they could
stand on the depot platform and count
every house in town. Jack LindOo's
residence, located back of their sons, w.
IF. Kings cafe, was the biggest and
finest house in the town.
For several years they lived just east
of the county bridge and opened up a
81 acre farm This farm cost Mr. King
5000 and he sold it for $4,000.
SiXty-five head of pure bred Rhode
Island chickens are kept on their little
farm and they have been laying well
since November, as some days in Jan
larry they got 80 eggs per day. They
have sold lot of eggs for setting this
pring thus doing a good stroke toward
lettering the poultry of the county.
Mr.. King and his wife were among
he founders of the Christian church
n Ladysmith and for several years
Mr.. King was the pastor, and he and
his wife are among the few charter
members of that church who still live
here. This good couple are enjoying
themselves on their farm, living close
% nature. and making a good comfort
lble living for themselves besides.

CLARK co. MAN HOLDS
WILD LAND AT SIS
Says Similar Land i'm Clark County
Sells For That Amount

Charles Johnson, of Clark county,
owns good quarter section of wild
land mile east of the Victor Schalliol
farm near Dairy Center, east of the
road at the corner where the meadow
is. L. G.. Jones wrote him asking him
TO make price on it SO they could sell
it and get a settler on it. He replied
that his lowest price was 500 per acre
net, as wild land similarly located in
Clark county was selling ready for
that amount.
In comment we wish to state that
land near Dairy Center is selling at
$50 per acre and it is unfortunate for
any of it to be in the hands of distant
spectators who take the advantage of
the work done by the settlers to raise
the price of their land abnOrmally
There is some difference between Clark
county as it is an older settled country.
but Mr.. Johnson is not far from real
values when he makes comparison
Is all of the wild land in Clark county
is what is left after years of picking
over and is apt to be rough green tim
Der or swamp land, while his land here
is in a new virgin country which has
not been picked over and the best
aiken. Wild land is better in quality
and lower in price here in Ruslk cOun-
ty than in any other northern county
IF the state.

NOTES ON A BUSY FARMER

Edward RheinganS, who lives mile
east of Ladysmith, has planted six
acres of peas and will put in nine
acres of corn. He will sow grass seed
with the peas and secure a good crol
of grass this fall to cut for hay or ust
for pasture. He raised six acres OF
peas last year and got $50 above cost OF
seed. He expects to do better this
wear. as his ground is in better shape
and he is putting in more work ON it.
This spring he has cleared up five
acres Of new land by blowing the
stumps. This land will be broke late
and sOwed to Il crop for fall feed Mill
let or sugar cane will be used.
Mr.. Rheingans now has 81 head OF
cows and two-year-Old heifers, which
are high-grade Guernseys. He also has
a pure-bred Guernsey bull. Last year
he sold $3.50 worth of little pigs, and
will sell some this year, though he has
cut down on them considerably, as he
says it doesn't pay TO raise hogs, eX-
cept where one has surplus milk anG
pasture to feed them. y dozen OF his
cows make him close to 5000 per month.
besides the skim milk.
There is a system of water works,
which supplies water to the barn, and
will be put into the house this fall, at
ter he has moved and rem0deled it.
He showed the farm editor a stump
piler trip-hOOk that he made that Is
the simplest device we ever saw, and
Mr.. Rheingans says it is simpler than
the Frost trip hook. though it is really
an Improvement over that one.
