We had one here that wasn't too awful bad. He lived about 50-60 miles away. He showed up when they built the 2500 cow dairy over west of me so he could raise feed for them. I'll give him one thing,he never really seemed to want more ground than he needed to feed the cattle. He bought some land,but we're probably talking hundreds of acres,not thousands,then he rented a lot. He had a deal going with some of the potato growers where they were swapping some land around and he was growing alfalfa in to their rotation. He'd come in to the restaurant with his local help at noon and sit at the big table with us. Never seemed like anything but an average guy with a great sense of humor. He was one of them that used to laugh and say that according to the universities,I shouldn't even exist. He was always good natured about it when he said it though.
Eventually the dairy bought out his operation here and started raising their own feed with their own crew and he started farming corn and beans in Illinois.
