Bayfield County Heads Toward Busy 1908 Land Season
Bayfield County and northern Wisconsin expect a record influx of settlers in the coming season. Land buyers arrived this spring, put up farm buildings, and cleared land seeking quick profits from stump wood after stump removal. Hazards include high soil value but ample land, with a push to develop large farms as pine stumps are repurposed into saleable wood. Local residents James Fluck and Robert Fluck visited, and William Podvin from Cornucopia discussed mill work. Cement construction and home telephone directories are advertised amid farming expansion notes.
