Back in July 1919 the News ran one Ross Township column — now it's August and we have one actual Ainsworth column!

From the Hobart News of August 28, 1919.
The excerpt from the 1926 Plat Book below shows (my best guesses at) a few of the locations mentioned in the column. At left, the Raschka land rented by Charles Henrichs; at center, Lovisa Nelson's 40 acres bought by Jacob Hurlburt (don't ask me why the 1926 Plat Book shows them still in Lovisa's name); at right, the James Chester land rented by William Shults, and just to the left of that land, the green dot shows approximately where Herman Harms was building his new silo.
