Otto Morrow Farm — Alfalfa in Foreground 



Mr. Miller made the county record 

 as an auctioneer when he conducted 

 the big sale on the Barnes farm. In 

 eight hours on the block he sold over 

 $35,000 worth of personal property. 



The Miller farm is five miles south- 

 east of Moorhead and two miles south 

 of Dilworth. 



Otto Morrow is a successful farmer 

 of the younger generation. He is fully 

 abreast of the times in all matters per- 

 taining to the farm, including stock 

 raising. Mr. Morrow's 800-acre farm 

 is in Glyndon and Moland townships, 

 and the buildings are located on the 

 south bank of the North Buffalo River. 

 He has made a specialty of growing 

 corn and potatoes. A fine field of al- 

 falfa was seeded last year, and the 

 stand is one of the best in the countv. 



The farmstead, as shown in the illus- 

 tration, is beautifully located and well 

 sheltered. Glyndon, the market and 

 shipping point, is only two miles dis- 

 tant from the Morrow farm. 



Since J. P. McCarthy came to Clay 

 County six years ago he has been one 

 of the busiest farmers in this section 

 of the state. His farm, six miles south 

 of Moorhead in Kurtz township, shows 

 the work of an experienced and pro- 

 gressive farmer. Mr. McCarthy be- 

 lieves in plowing early and deep. He 

 is not content with doing this, for he 

 raises stock and turns under the ma- 

 nure. Mr. McCarthy diversifies his 

 crops and is a successful corn grower. 

 The farm is on the state road, and there 

 is a ditch on the north as Avell as a new 

 one on the south line.
