FRANK S. McADAM. The farm
of Frank S. McAdam, one of the McAdam ranches,
consists of one hundred and eighty acres, ninety acres of
which is rented for dairy purposes and seventy-five acres of
ninety is under alfalfa. The dairyman renter milks
forty cows and raises some hogs. Thirty acres of the
remainder of the place is devoted to alfalfa, and the last
acre of it will be given to that crop as soon as possible.
At this time Mr. McAdam milks eight cows and farms
forty acres to grain.
Mr. McAdams was born June 3, 1885, in Pembina
county, Dakota Territory. In 1907 he married Miss
Schukenecht, of Hobart, Ind., and their son Lawrence
McAdam was born Oct. 25, 1908.
Mr. McAdam's management of his portion of the
big McAdam ranch has been evidence of his capability
for the handling of big business. A man of enterprise
and of public spirit who has the welfare of the community at
heart, he is one of the most helpful citizens of his
part of the county. He is at present interested with
his brother William J. in the Castle Dome silver and
lead mines of their father, Robert McAdam. The
mines are located in Yuma County, Arizona.
