. Clay County. Agriculture. 40 CLAY COUNTY ILLUSTRATED. Home of Julius T. Lunder Near Dale, Highland Grove Township This illustration shows the farm home of Julius T. Lunder, one mile north of Dale in Highland Grove town- ship. Mr. Lunder came to Minnesota from Norway with his parents when he was only three years old. The family located the homestead which is the farm now owned by Mr. Lunder. A part of the original log house is included in the present dwelling. Mr. Lunder diversifies his crops and is an extensive grower of potatoes. He has one of the finest and most convenient potato cellars in the county. It is built in the hillside ; the walls and floor are of cement, and the exposure is to the south. To the east and south of the farm buildings is a twelve-acre patch of alfalfa from which two cut- tings were made the first year. William Sprung was born in Ger- many and came to the United States with his parents when a child. The family settled in Iowa and in 1892 moved to Clay County, locating in Moland township where they pur- chased a half section farm. This is the farm now operated by Mr. Sprung and it is practically all under culti- vation, 30 acres being reserved for pasture. Mr. Sprung has made a suc- cess of corn growing, and one of the illustrations shows the crew at work.
