Then he went to Blanchardville, in Fayette County, Wis., and there learned the plumbing and tinsmith trade. In 1899 he came to Rice Lake and for a short time worked at his trade. Then he bought 160 acres in Section 9, Rice Lake Township, which he conducted while still working at his trade. In 1907 he sold the farm and bought 210 acres in Sections 5 and 6, Oak Grove Township. To this farm he has since devoted his entire attention. He has put up a good set of buildings, has constructed fences, and cleared 80 acres of the land. Here he successfully carries on general farming and dairying. His herd is of graded Holsteins, with a full blooded sire at the head.
