  • In 1904 WILLIAM P. BIDDLE, who is the owner of a fine ranch in Jackson township, Charles Mix county, was born in Decatur county, Iowa, on the 19th of December, 1857, and was reared to the work of the farm. He secured his early education in the public schools of his native state, his advantages being somewhat limited, as, owing to the death of his father, he was early compelled to depend upon his own exertions. He worked on a farm from the age of fourteen until he had attained his legal majority, and then went to Nebraska, where he secured land, for which he paid two and one-half dollars an acre, and he there devoted his attention to farming for the ensuing four years, at the expiration of which he disposed of the property. Subsequently he came to South Dakota and located in Charles Mix County, where he purchased three hundred and seventy-eight acres of land. He forthwith turned his attention to the improvement and cultivation of his farm, and subsequently purchased additional land so that his estate now comprises six hundred and forty acres, while the property is equipped with excellent buildings and other substantial improvements and is one of the valuable farms of this favored section of the state, the greater portion of the land being under a high state of cultivation. In connection with his agricultural enterprises Mr. Biddle devotes much attention to the raising of cattle and swine. In state and national affairs he is a staunch Democrat, but in local matters he is independent. Mr. Biddle was united in marriage to Miss Kate Grant, who was born in New York, and of this union have been born seven children.8
