Gilbert Caldwell
Farm Pictured
The Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Cald-
well farm was pictured in the aerial
farm photograph last week. The
Ca]dwells claimed the picture on
Thursday. The farm is located a
half mile south of U. S. 30 at the
first road beyond the Midway.
Mr. Caldwell in 1946 bought the
farm of his father who moved to
a 40 acre place near Bertram. Gil-
bert's grandfather, Joseph Caldwell.
bo'aght the farm just before the
~urn of the century. He sold it to
his son, Sherwin Caldwell. in 1915
vJho in turn sold it to Gilbert. He
was born on the farm.
The farm has 140 acres. Mr.
Caldwell also farms 8@ acres of
the Gerald Scott land. Twenty
acres of it is in soy beans, 42
in corn and 16 in oats.
Of the 105 acres of crop land on
the home farm he has about a third
in corn, a third in hay and a third
in oats. He was fortunate enough
to put up his alfalfa last week with-
out it being rained on. He got 585
bales from seven acres. Of the hay
ground about 10 acres is in alfalfa
and the balance in clover. Some of
the land is farmed on the contour.
The Cherokee oats look pretty good
They are especially good on theI
ground on which 300 pounds of
6-24-0 fertilizer was broadcasted to
the acre.
All of the corn was knee high
by the 4th except four acres which
was planted after June 1 because
it was too wet to plant earlier, i
