Frank Krul came to this county
three years ago and bought three nun
dred and twenty acres of (rood land,
but just moved out this spring from
Custer county. He Kays that he likes
this country better than his former
location, for one can produce more
dollars per acre and farm more land.
Frank has ninety-five acres of spuds
and nine acres of oats.
Joe Krul came 'here from Custer
county three years ago and owns
three hundred and twenty acres and
thinks that this country is much bet
ter for a poor man to get a start in
than farther east. He says one can
buy land cheaper and produce more
to the acre here than farther east on
high-priced land. Joe has fifty acres
of wheat, ten or oats, thirty or corn
and forty-two of spuds.
C. L. Hardy came here from Iowa
two years ago, but for the last ten
months he has been operating the City
cafe in Hemingford and seems to do
a good business. We do know that
he serves good food, for we have sam
pled the good food on two occasions.
Anton Uhrig came here thirty-six
years ago and took up the land where
the city of Hemingford now stands.
He practically donated the company
one nundred and sixty acres of land
to build on, but afterward bought the
most of it back and now owns six hun
dred acres just out of the city and has
as fine a farm as one could wish for.
He also owns fifteen hundred and
sixty acres eighteen miles southwest
of town. Mr. Uhrig was on the road
for some time for a furniture house
in St. Louis; at one time was in the
harness business, and was the first
man to start a store in. Box Butte
county to sell hardware, harness and
furniture, and continued in the busi
ness for almost twenty-five years, but
sold cut feme ten years ago and in
vested in more land, for he says that
cheap land is the best investment one
can make and thinks that land here
is a fine buy. Mr. Uhrig lives on the
place he pre-empted in 1884. ' He was
county commissioner for several years.
H. J. Clipson came out here from
Iowa three years ago and bought four
hundred and forty acres of land two
miles east of Hemingford and rented
it, but this spring he came out to op
erate it himself. When we asked him
how he liked this country as compared
with Iowa, he told us this story: Last
year he farmed his own farm in Iowa,
which he later sold for $300 per acre,
and raised forty bushels of corn to the
acre and sold it for 40 cents per
bushel. Here, on the land he bought
for 75 per acre, he raised eighty
bushels of spuds per acre and sold
them for 70 cents out of the field, al
most four times the amount received
from the $300 land. He says he can
see no reason why he should not like
this country better, as he can farm
more land and do it easier here. He
says he would not trade his land here
for the same number of acresun lowa.
Mr. Clipson shipped out six purebred
Percheron mares when he came here
that ought to do lots of good in im
proving the horses in this county. Mr.
Clipson has two hundred and fifteen
acres of winter wheat, seventy-five of
spring wheat, one hundred and fifty
of spuds, fifteen of corn and fifteen
of alfalfa.
Frank J. Bedlivy came hee three
years ago from valley county and
bought three hundred and twenty
acres of good land three miles east of
Hemingford. He likes the country
fine and says he can make more money
here and do it easier than in the east.
Last year he raised three thousand
bushels of spuds from thirty acres and
sold at from seventy-five to ninety
five cents per bushel. Mr. Bedlivy has
one hundred and ten acres of wheat,
twenty of oats, thirty of spuds and
twenty of corn. ,
Roy M. Page came here from Iowa
three years ago and likes this country
better than Iowa for several reasons.
The chief one is that he can produce
more per acre here and do it easier
and with less labor. He has thirty
acres of corn, twenty-seven of spuds
and sixteen of oats.
