Jasper County Democrat, Volume 15, Number 5, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 20 April 1912 — Has Lost All Farm Sentiment. [ARTICLE]

Has Lost All Farm Sentiment.

L. P. Shirer and family have moved back to town from the farm near Surrey which, he traded last week for the D. H. Yeoman property. A taste of public office seems to have taken all the “back to the farm” sentiment out of Mr. Shirer. M. Rice of near Mt. Ayr, who has been, living on Gus Yeoman’s farm which he sold to a Chicagoan, has moved onto the farm vacated by Mr. Shirer. By the way, the Chicago man who bought the Gus Yeoman farm, is said to be thoroughly draining it, and will put in eight carloads of tile this spring. Thomas Lang occupies the farm.
