A pamphlet on farming in Northern Wisconsin, 1904
Opportunities for a man who wants a chance to start in a country where even with moderate means he can get ahead and lay up something for the future

This booklet touts the agricultural opportunities in the region and includes letters from successful farmers as evidence of its possibilities.
