    1. [IN-SOUTH-CENTRAL] Orange County: G. D. Cole Relocated
    2. Randi Richardson via
    3. Paoli (IN) Republican, February 17, 1915, p. 8. G. D. Cole, a former Orange County boy now living on a farm near Glidden Iowa, writes to take advantage of one of our magazine clubbing offers. Dave says they have had lots of cold weather there this winter but says they like it out there very much and says it is a great farming country. He says that besides doing a lot of tilling and fence building after he got there last spring, they broke and planted 400 acres of corn, cut 660 acres of wheat on the farm, harvesting 15,500 bushels of wheat and 20,000 bushels of corn. They use two gasoline tractors on that farm and last fall sowed 435 acres of wheat and expect to plant from 450 to 500 acres of corn this spring.
