Book Description
Excerpt from History of Winnebago County and Hancock County, Iowa, Vol. 2: A Record of Settlement, Organization Progress and Achievement J. R. Baggs has for some years been prominently identified with educational affairs and is now efficiently serving as county superintendent of schools in Hancock county, his home being in Garner. He was born on the 22d of June, 1872, in England, of which country his parents, Nathaniel and Amelia (pigeon) Baggs, were also natives, but he was only about a year old when the family came to America and located in Denison, Iowa. At the usual age Professor Baggs began his education in the public schools of this state and later attended Des Moines College and the Sac City Institute, grad nating from both. He also continued his studies in the Iowa State Teachers College and thus became well prepared for his chosen profession. He first engaged in teaching in the country schools of Crawford county and subsequently was connected with the Denison Normal School as an instructor. Professor Baggs also taught in the Sac City Institute and was superintendent of the Dow City public schools and also of the public schools of Corwith from 1903 to 1906. In the latter year he accepted the superintendency of the public schools of Garner, with which he was connected for four years, and in January, 1911, became county superintendent of the schools of Hancock county. He was reelected in 1916 and is now filling that responsible position in a most creditable and acceptable manner. Professor Baggs was married in 1900 to Miss Ida Craft, of Denison, Iowa.

INTRODUCTION--LOCATION PREVIOUS GEOLOGICAL STUDY PHYSIOGRAPHY-- TOPOGRAPHY DRAINAGE GEOLOGICAL FORMATIONS GENERAL DESCRIPTION THE PLEISTOCENE SYSTEM KANSAN DRIFT THE WISCONSIN DRIFT SOILS-- ECONOMIC PRODUCTS -- WATER SUPPLY ACKNOWLEDGMENTS FORESTRY NOTES FOR KOSSUTH, WINNEBAGO AND HANCOCK COUNTIES. The following geological report is taken from the Iowa Geological Survey, Volume XIII, Annual Report, 1902, pp. 80-122: INTRODUCTION LOCATION The three counties of Iowa here discussed, Kossuth, Hancock, and Winnebago, constitute together an almost perfect square lying along the northern boundary of the State almost midway between the Mississippi and the Sioux. Kossuth is a double county in area, almost the largest county in the State. By our system of surveys the most northern townships and sections in any case bear the brunt of any deficiency in land-division; and so it happened that our square is not exactly perfect but measures only about forty-one miles in north and south directions as against forty-eight from east to west. These three counties are prairie counties, remote from rivers or mountains or any great terrestrial features popularly believed to determine topography, and it would naturally be supposed that all three are just alike, just like fifty other such political divisions to be selected anywhere within our valley-prairies. But such is by no means the case. Greater contrasts are not to be found, within the limits of a re 9 gion not mountainous, than are to be seen within the square before us. We have plains wide extended, so level that for the passing traveler no inequality can be perceived; towns may hail towns across the unbroken...
