the Martins lived on the Jim Mc-
Donald farm southeast of Spring-
ville.
William Reid, who lives west of
the Martin place, has farmed the
ground for the last two years on
grain share rent. He has 40 acres~
of corn and harvested 11 acres of i
Clinton oats which yielded around
60 bushels to the acre, Alfalfa or
clover were seeded on the oats
ground.
Mr. Martin has l0 head of young
cattle but did not raise any hogs
this year. He has a lime truck,
corn picker and hay baler which
he has operated for three years '
About 25,000 bales are turned out
each year by his custom baler. ,
A chicken house and garage were~
built in 1929, a cattle shed built
on the barn in 1938, the house mod-
ernized in 1941 and a machine shed
built in 1948. The land has been
limed and relimed.
Mr. Martin devotes some of his
time to two other farms in that
neighborhood which he owns. His
son Wayne operates the former
Walter Paul farm, west of the home
place, which was bought of Walter
Strong several years ago. Marvin
Eberhardt farms the Jensen Estate
farm of 160 acres, a mile north and
a little west of the Linn Grove
church It was bought a year ago
this fall.
Wayne and Marvin each have
about 240 spring pigs. Wayne's are
a Spotted-Hamp cross A Hamp-
shire boar was used several ),ears
ago but a Spotted Poland boar has
been used for the last two years
Marvin's pigs are mixed, as hei
bought sows when he moved on the
place last spring Some of his hogs i
have already gone to market as~
they were farrowed in May while l
Wayne's were farrowed in June i
Wayne has picked some of his'~
corn which seems to be going about
60 bushels to the acre. The hogs
have been turned into one field
A pressure water system and a
bath room have been installed at
the house on the farm operated by
Wayne
Mrs. Martin was Gladys Strother
whose home was on the John
Strother farm just west of the
church. The Martins have four
children. Wayne lives west of them.
He has two children Paul, 4, and
Shirley, a year and a half old. Sgt.
Charles Martin, who has served
with an engineer construction bat-
talion in Korea. is on his way home.
Ruth is Mrs. Bernard Switzer of
Cedar Rapids The Switzers have
two daughters, Bonnie 4, and Becky
2 The youngest is Margaret, at
home, who is a freshman at Mar-
telle high school
LOCAL POST OFFICE
Before rural mail delivery was
started in 1902 the Martin house
served as an unofficial post office
for Linn Grove families during the
time that Mary Elizabeth Johnston
lived there. The rr.ail for a dozen
families living in that area was
placed in a small box in the entry-
way to the house Each family
picked up their mail there. When-
ever any of them went to Mt. Ver-
non they would bring mail back
for all the families and place it in
this box.
CENTRAL OFFICE
When the first telephone line was
built to Linn Grove about 1905 Miss
Johnston also had a small central
office in her home. The first line
was built from Lisbon and went
as far north as the Jacob Kissling
farm three miles north of the Linn
Grove church. There were so many
telephones on the line that it was
necsssary to have a central office
at Linn Grove.
The Martin house was used for
some church services between 1849
and 1854 before the Linn Grove
church was built.
TEST SEEDS EARLY
The Iowa State College Seed Test-
ing Laboratory is always rushed
just before planting time. You'll be
wise to have your carp seed tested
early this season.
says Mrs. Raymond Strain of Lorimor
Whatever you're serving---whether meat or
fish, cookies or cake, vegetables or soup---the
matchless flavor of Butter adds appetite-appeal
to any meal.
Yes, Taste tells us there's nothing like
Butter. And Science tells us why--because
each pound contains the golden goodness from
ten quarts of milk.
Rich in Vitamin A and energy-building ele-
ments, Butter is one basic food your family
deserves. Serve it at every meal. Use it gener-
ously in cooking. In flavor-value and health
value, it's your best buy.
CROQUETTES
2 cups meat or chicken
pound butter
6 tablespoons flour
1 quart milk
1 egg, well beaten
2 cups bread crumbs
Cut cooked meat or
chicken in small pieces.
Make a thick white
sauce with butter, flour
and milk. While it's
still hot, stir in meat,
salt to taste, and set
to thicken (several
hours). Shape int o
croquettes and roll in
flour, then in beaten
egg and last in bread
c~mbs. Fry in deep
fat until golden brown.
Mrs. Raymond Strain
Lorimor, Iowa
To make croquettes that will delight your family, try Mrs.
Strain's recipe, printed at left. When asked about the popu-
larity of her recipe, for which she has many requests, Mrs.
Strain gave credit to "choice ingredients, especially butter."
