BURR OAKS FARMS

Imagine on a pleasant June MORN
ing driving out over an inviting wind
ing road, between groves Of rustling
green, and then turning up a lone be-
tween green fields and coming to a
farm yard with trim white buildings,
cleaning cool and clean from the
shade of the great old oaks that line
the pretty meandering river sparkling
in the SUI at the foot of the garden
imagine all this and you will get some
of the pleasant thrill that The Herald
visitor experienced on such an occa-
sion last week in driving out to the
Burr Oaks Farms. the home of the
Albert johnson family, near Thief
River Falls in Pennington county,
| Minnesota. 49,,
Nature Planned 1t.
Burr Oaks Farms seem to have
been especially designed by nature for
the exact purpose they are being used
today-dairy farming with plenty of
natural pasture land, and enough good
rich loamy soil under cultivation to
raise the necessary fodder crops. There
are about $50 acres in the three farms
that make up the estate, and on all of
that broad expanse there is not a
bushel of wheat sowed this year. The
business of the farm is raising Guern-
seys, both pure bred and high grade,
and all of the soil is utilized to make
these superb animals produce IS much
milk as possible. About 16 cows are
milking at present. They are in the
pasture all day and are getting no
special care. Yet they bring into the
farm from the milk sales alone never
less than $500 a month. With a sure
income. like that it is not to be won
dered that Mr.. johnson doesn't feel
like bothering with anything so I'M
certain as wheat.
Forsaking Football for Farming.
Nine years ago Mr.. johnson. with
his wife and daughter and his two
sons, Perry and Guy, came from Au-
Pennington county. The older son,
Perry, then a football star in the Uni
versity of Illinois, had been or a va
cation trip up into Canada. He stop
ped by chance at Thief River Falls
and, acting upon his fathers sugges-
ton that he look up some suitable To-
cation for, a good dairy farm, he
found the present location Of the
farm, then a piece of 173 acres of
government homestead land on which
the presumption rights were flor sale.
he did mo- returnlto Illinois until he
had completed the transaction and
had the papers recorded. 1t took
courage to give up his football career,
but the farm had to be lived on at
once, SO Perry made his decision. He
came up to Minnesota, and later fin
ished his urs at the University of
Minnesota. During the war, in which
both he and his. brother served for
IS months, both overseas, he was CIV
en- a three months post graduate
course in the University of Edinburg,
specializing along the lines of live
stock and agricultural problems. He
is now a%ppraising farms for loans for
the Minnesota Loan and Trust COM
pany. He was until recently with the
dairy department of the state asri-
cultural college.

CONAN DOYLE ANXIOUS
TO SEE BABE RUTH PLAY
At Ball Game Asks If He Is
CleUer as Billy Sunday.

After watching the Giants crash out
a 1I-10 win over the Brooklyn Dodgers
yesterday, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle said
last night that he still marveled at the
skill and accuracy Of the baseball out
fielders Accompanied by Lady Doyle,
the three children and Mr.. and Mrs. Lee
keedick, Sir Arthur occupied a field box
near the first base line and enjoyed. the
remarks of his youngsters more than he
did the game
Evidently Sir Arthur was we'll chilled
by the cool breezes which were waited
across the field from Coogans Bluff, for
an hour later in his suite at the Am
bassador he still had his overcoat collar
turned uo about his neck. This was not
the first baseball game which he had
seen. as he pointed out when he said he
had seen the Giants perform when he
was here several years ago.
'The best part of 1t ALL" he said, "is
that there is always something going
on. Cricket gets duh at times and the
game lags, but in baseball something is
happening every minute. What 1 still
marvel at is the accuracy, the dexterity
and the speed or your outfielders when
they start to catch fly ball. And the
infelders are wonderfully fast and ac-
curate. but to the outfeders l would
give the prize for skill
Asked IL he had ever seen Babe Ruth
play, Sir Arthur said: NO It's quite
too bad that he is away just now. /
have heard so much about him that /
should like to see him play. Tell me, Is
he "A bright chap as well as a great
batter? You know what I mean. Is he
q clever fellow like Billy Sunday? /
am told Sunday was great ball player
also. / must see Babe Ruth. I have
been told he is in a class all by himself,
like the Woolworth Building, as some
one put 1t. Well. I saw that the first
day in. and now I'll have to see this

tive Malcolm arrest him on charge
OF kidnapping.
Some time Friday night which Burt
spent in a cell. he decided TO tell where
the child was. In the Fifth avenue court
Mrs Burt told her story TO Magistrate
Goismar. but said she did not want TO
press the charge of kidnapping. and after
ell she loved Burt. And at that point
Ethel told her father she thought they
ought to all live together again. That

their part in the Vendetta" which ran for 20 years before and after the Civil War.
 Milo Erwin, Marion attorney, who wrote history of the Vendetta in 1876, in which he said that at least 21 of the participants were personal friends who had told him the facts, estimated the total of major crimes growing out of that feud at 1,027. His figures included 2S5 murders; i; '495 assaults. with a deadly weapon j; 190 cases of larceny; 15 of rape; 22 of burglary, and 20 of perjury. t
 ''Of the smaller offenses I have taken no notice" he remarks in his history, though they have been quite numerous and interesting. Some of them have been riots in which two or three men have been badly wounded
 To Resist Union Soldiers
 In 1861, 15 or 20 men. meeting in a Marion saloon, passed resolutions .o secede from the Union and at tempted to organize a regiment to defend the country against Union soldiers
 A company of union troops was sta toned at a railroad bridge over the Big Muddy, just over tho county line, and a crowd was raised to attack them. A spy sent out to look over the land reported the soldiers had a cannon, and the crowd dispersed.
 Later a company from Williamson county succeeded in reaching a con federate army in Kentucky and fought through the war with the South.
 Many of the leading men of the county were involved in the Vendetta One of tho picturesque characters was J. D. F. Jennings, states attor- ney of the county.
 Leading Citizens Threatened a series of letters to the Farmers Advocate. of Marion, signed Big Pete of the Woods" threatening all he leading citizens. including him self. .,
 
 "A while before he left" Erwin wrote. "he sent letter to Samuel Dunaway and few other rich men of Marion. threatening to kill them, and signed it Big Pete" Then he went to these parties and said he knew who it was wanting to kill them, and that if they would give him 5000 he would hire men to kill Big Pete. and even told them whom he could get to do it.'
 Erwin's character sketch of Jen- nings reveals him as man of very diversified accomplishments. He says:
 "He was very popular. and the secret of 1t was his manners, sayings and opinions. He was professional doctor lawyer. preacher, fiddler and horn-blower. When he made music on the square crowd would swell around him. When he preached, they all went to. hear him. from the aristocracy down to the sstss4 esss.
