Mendenhall Views West Farm Prospects and Traction Boom
John Mendenhall, president of the county board, says he loves the old farm but will lease and move to Indianapolis. He notes land values rising from 85 to 200 per acre near Marion County due to traction lines, praises Purdue agricultural education, and sees golden western farm opportunities for young men while Indiana remains pricey for beginners. He plans to move after the public sale and take a vacation to Oklahoma City.
