. Clay County. Agriculture. Otto Morrow Farm—Alfalfa in Foreground Mr. Miller made the county record as an auctioneer when he conducted the big sale on the Barnes farm. In eight hours on the block he sold over $35,000 worth of personal property. The Miller farm is five miles south- east of Moorhead and two miles south of Dilworth. Otto Morrow is a successful farmer of the younger generation. He is fully abreast of the times in all matters per- taining to the farm, including stock raising. Mr. Morrow's 800-acre farm is in Glyndon and Moland townships, and the buildings are located on the south bank of the North Buffalo River. He has made a specialty of growing corn and potatoes. A fine field of al- falfa was seeded last year, and the stand is one of the best in the countv. The farmstead, as shown in the illus- tration, is beautifully located and well sheltered. Glyndon, the market and shipping point, is only two miles dis- tant from the Morrow farm. Since J. P. McCarthy came to Clay County six years ago he has been one of the busiest farmers in this section of the state. His farm, six miles south of Moorhead in Kurtz township, shows the work of an experienced and pro- gressive farmer. Mr. McCarthy be- lieves in plowing early and deep. He is not content with doing this, for he raises stock and turns under the ma- nure. Mr. McCarthy diversifies his crops and is a successful corn grower. The farm is on the state road, and there is a ditch on the north as Avell as a new one on the south J. P. McCarthy's Farm Buildings, Six Miles South of Moorhead.
