I just bought the Obeck farm next door,
60 acres with a fair house with new roof
and furnace and a decent barn. It cost 450
an acre. This seems an awful price when
you compare the 92 per acre we paid for
our farm and 90 dollars Gramp paid for
the home farm or the 60 dollars paid for
The Hill Farm in 1929. On the other hand,
it’s right in the center of what we own and
can be worked with men and machinery
we now have. I got a loan from the bank
with no money down. That amazes me.
I must have a good reputation!
