The other public sale notice, to the left of Henry Schavey's, was to be held on "the place known as the Michael Baessler farm," formerly owned by Michael Baessler, Sr., and located in Porter County. I think A.L. Fisher bought that farm in 1918; an item in the "Local Drifts" of the Hobart Gazette of January 25, 1918, mentioned that the Baessler farm had been sold but did not name the buyer. And two years' residence wasn't enough to make the farm known as the "A.L. Fisher farm."
