Jasper County Democrat, Volume 12, Number 66, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 1 December 1909 — WILL MOVE TO NORTH DAKOTA. [ARTICLE]
WILL MOVE TO NORTH DAKOTA.
Thomas Callaghan was down from Walker township Monday getting a set of sale bills printed by The Democrat. He is going to move about March 1, to near Minot, No. Dak-, where he has rented a 160acre farm for the next year. This is right in the vicinity of where Geo. J. Nichols and Albert Bouk, two former Walkerites, are located. Tom was out there awhile the past summer and is much taken up with the country. Everyone is doing fine there. George Nichols owns 480 acres of land now, and this year he raised 4,000 bushels of wheat, 1,700 bushels of oats and 26 acres of flax. He wrote Tom recently that he had 285 acres plowed for wheat next year. Albert Bouk has a splendidly improved farm, fine house and barn, and is doing well. He raised 3,700 bushels of wueat and 1,200 bushels of oats, doing all the work himself, this season.
