FRED BUELOW. The vocation of tilling the soil has been numbered among the honored occupations since early history. Among the good, practical agri- culturalists of Langlade County, who thoroughly un- derstand their vocation and who have secured full measure of success in the intelligent application of their own knowledge in the conduct of their farm is Fred Buelow, who has been a farmer all of his life. Mr. Buelow was born in Germany on July 30, 1865, the son of Fred and Vendelina (Strieker) Buelow. When six years old he moved to Edgerton, Rock County, Wisconsin. A year later the family moved to Oshkosh, Winnebago County, Wisconsin, and after
residing in that county for six years they moved to Clintonville, Waupaca County. For thirty-eight years Mr. Buelow resided in the county, having his farm in the town of Matteson. In 1915 he moved to Enter- prise, Wisconsin, and resided on his eighty acre tract of land there for three years. He then moved to An- tigo township, Langlade County, Wisconsin, in No- vember, 1917. He has fifteen acres of well devel- oped land and is engaged in general farming and the cultivation of strawberries. He supplies the Antigo market with his luscious strawberries in season.
Mr. Buelow was married to Minnie Steenboch, a native of Sheboygan County, Wisconsin, on Novem- ber 10, 1892. To this union eight children were born, namely, Arthur, who resides on the eighty acre farm at Enterprise, Wis.; Hilda, now Mrs. William Kunzie of Enterprise, Wis.; Walter, Otto, Viola, Lydia, Ray- mond, and Gordon, all of Antigo township. While a resident of Matteson township Mr. Buelow was hon- ored with fifteen years of successive duty as a school officer in District No. 3.
The Buelows are members of the Antigo Peace Evangelical church.
