The Swanson Dairy Farm was located at 578 Silver Lake Road. The farm house, built in 1914, still stands. The farm not only produced milk, but sold it directly to the consumer through milk routes in northeast Minneapolis.
Two houses in St. Peter are shown. A note on the photograph states that larger of the two houses belonged to Wm. Harrison Rounseville, and that it was located at 407 West Grace Street. Farm machinery is visible at the far right.
