George Mohr, one of Jackson township's successful farmers, was in this city, Saturday on business. He was accompanied by his daughter, Mrs. Rachel Osborn. Mr. Mohr lost a barn by lightning this last summer, but he is having a dandy new one built, 92[?]* x 52 feet in size. A thrifty German farmer cannot keep house without a good barn. He desires to take good care of his stock and all that he raises. Waste is a word he does not see any sense in using and neither should other people.September 13, 1924
