Mr. Baker is dwelling with his father, mentioned elsewhere in this volume, and associated with him in farming and stock raising. He was born in Buffalo, Wisconsin, June 15, 1883, the son of John and Hannah J. (Powell) Baker. His early education was received in the schools of his native county and when his father removed west he came with him. Since then he has manifested the real pioneer spirit and has devoted himself especially to the good labors mentioned above. He is a young man of good standing, and is a skillful nimrod.
