(Special to Pioneer.)
Gonvick, Oct. 16.What is be
lieved to be a record price for farm
land in Clearwater county and north
ern Minnesota was that paid last
week by Theodore Hetland, well
know farmer of Pine Lake township,
who paid ?200 an acre for the Nels
J. Lervik farm after selling his own
farm for $16,000. The Lervik farm,
while consisting of but 20 acres and
only partly improved, is considered
worth the high price because of the
good set of buildings thereon and be
cause of the accessibility to market,
It being located less than a mile from
the village limits. The Hetland
place is a highly improved farm of
160 acres, with splendid dwelling,
modern barn and flowing well- It
also is but a short distance from
town and is bordered on two sides by
the Jefferson Highway. Tue farm
was bought by Mr. Flom of Mcintosh,
who made the purchase a few hours
after disposing of his place near that
city at $85 per acre. Messrs. Lervik
and Hetland will retire to private
life. They feel that their health is
beginning to falter under the strain
of njany years of farm work. Both
are advertising auction sales for next
week, at which they will dispose of
their personal property in anticipa
tion of winding up careers that have
extended through much of the agri
col tural history of Minnesota and
marked by abundant success.
That the fertility and wonderful
productiveness of the land tributary
to Gonvick is becoming widely known
Is evident by the fact that G. T. Ne
dreda of Chicago came here a few
days ago without any solicitations
whatever from real estate dealers,
And purchased 80 acres of land, pay
ing $5,000, or $62.50 per acre. The
land fg locateed in section One, Pine
Sake township, two miles east of
Obnvick. It is partly under cultiva
tion and without buildings. The
tract at one time belonged to Carl
Norquist and more recently was
owned by Mrs. F. A. Norquist who
made the deal. Mr. Nedreda, who
has lived in the Windy City practi
cally all his life, has heard the call
"Back to the Farm." He brought
Ids family and personal effects and
will, begin farming the land next
spring. In the meantime, the family
fa making their home with Mr. and
Mrs. R. E. Waage, the latter being a
sister of Mr. Nedreda.
Ttf credence can be placed in a
statement given out by a representa
tive of the Standard Oil company, af
ter he had spent the early part of the
week here looking over the situation.
Gonvick will soon have an oil station
and possibly a filling station added
to its many enterprises. With two
large garages, a long list of automo
bile?! that perhaps will exceed the
number found in most towns of simi
lar size in this part of Minnesota,
nd numerous tractors and other
modern farm machinery in use on the
farms in the surrounding country,
the consumption of oil here is in
creasing at, a rapid rate and war
rants this noteworthy improvement
in service which the company pro
poses to make.
Regardless of what his politics
may have been. Gonvick. like every
other town in the United States, has
its admirers of the late Theodore
Roosevelt and there are many people
here who are interested in the na
tion-wide campaign to be conducted
daring the week of October 20 to 27,
to Becure funds for the purpose of es
tablishing a memorial to the erst
while president. It is the plan to
give every American an opportunity
to contribute to the memorial, and
the week will be devoted to a cam
paign of Americanism, patriotism
and the teaching of the principles for
which the colonel stood during his
lifetime.
A five-piece orchestra, composed
of Gonvick and Fosston musicians,
who style themselves "The Harmony
Kids," are making arrangements to
give another of their popular dances
at Gully on Hallowe'en evening. The
orchestra gave a ball there two weeks
ago and it was attended by more
than a hundred couples.
Fredrick Stevens and Toney Hal
Torson, students attending high
school in Bemidji, returned to their
studies Monday, after visiting here
over Sunday in the parental homes.
M. J. Kolb, president of the First
National hank of Gonvick, and head
of other banking institutions In
Clearwater county, passed Tuesday
in the village on business. Mr. Kolb
has lust returned from a trip to Tus
'la, ok., near where he and other I
Clearwater county men are interest-1
in an oil project which is being
iid*WLi.&'U*.*.'&
developed with splendid prospects of
getting big returns from their in
vestment-
The Misses Nettie and Nellie Gon
vick were visitors in Bemidji Mon
day.
With the fall crops out of the way,
development work has been resumed
in the country north of Gonvick by
the Messrs. Hamery, Quern and KJol
haug. These men have set their em
ployees to work on a contract to
break 320 acres of land for George
Simpson, retired broker of Minnea
polic, who purchased 1,900 acres of
land in Hangaard, Winsorand John
son townships a short time ago and
who plans to make many improve
ments on the property.
Gonvick continues to live up to its
reputation of being the heavy ship
ping point on the Soo line. Satur
day saw three car loads of livestock
go out from here. The stock was
shipped to St. Paul by the Gonvick
Winsor Shipping association, -ronvick
Mercantile company, and L. L. Horn
Hans Tufte, his sister. Miss Julia,
and nephew, Gunhlld Tufte of North
wood, N. D., and Carl Gubrud of
Bagley, have returned to their homes
following a short visit with the B. B.
Sletto family, southwest of the vil
lage.
Hans G. Larson, now living at
Meadowsland, Minn., former resident
of this locality, is renewing acquain
tances with friends here this week.
Since leaving here three years ago,
Mr. Larson has acted as county agent
of St. Louis county which position he
resigned in May to accept the super
intency of the Farmers Mutual Fire
Insurance company In his county.
The local post of the American Le
gion organization, of which is now
practically completed, will draw its
name from the village instead of in
honor of some fallen war hero as is
being done in a great many places in
the state. It will be known as the
Gonvick post, with its number to be
designated by the state organization.
This was decided at a recent meeting
at which the following officers were
elected: Chairman, Fred P. Harri
son vice president, Ole Negaard
secretary, Newell R. Johnson treas
urer, John Stevens.
Another meeting has been called
for next Sunday to adopt constitution
and bylaws.
