SAMUEL C. SCHULTZ

SAMUEL C. AND. LIZZIE SCHULTZ, who have named their farm in Liberty township,
four miles northwest of Dundee, and ten miles southwest of Great Bend,
"Fairhaven," are among the younger generation of farmers in this county. Mr.
Schultz is the eldest son of Mr. and Mrs. Christian S. Schultz of Pawnee Rock
township, and was born on July 12, 1876. The privations of his earlier years
were such as to make him learn the value of money and the results to be obtained
by hard work, and these two characteristics are stamped on every feature of his
surroundings. He owns in fee simple one hundred and sixty acres of as fine farm
land as there is in Barton County, and rents one hundred and forty adjoining.
His farm, therefore, covers three hundred acres, and is in the highest possible
state of cultivation. His residence is a two story frame containing ten large
airy rooms. It is surrounded by numerous forest trees and a young orchard, and
there are enough shrubs and plants within the paled yard to make the place very
inviting. The barn, granaries, automobile garage, and various other outbuildings
are all new, commodious and in fine condition, and make the farm present a very
substantial and prosperous condition. Mr. Schultz also owns three acres near the
town of Dundee and has just built thereon a good four room cottage for rent to a
tenant.

   On February 13, 1898, when the prospects for crops were about the same as
they had been for the past five years—total failures- Samuel C. Schultz and Miss
Lizzie Unruh, of Lone Tree township, McPherson County, Kansas, were married, and
the two went to farming for themselves. That they have succeeded is proven both
by their surroundings and by the five handsome children of which they are the
parents: Lena, 13; Clara, 12; Edward, 10; Lincoln, 8 and Ella, 7.
