Beebee March 1,1878-Nov 21,1954 Among the men of sterling worth and strength of character who have made an impression upon the life of Harrison county, Iowa, few have accomplished more in this respect than Arthur Beebee, an enterprising young farmer and stockman of La Grange township. His life-long residence in this locality has given the people an opportunity to know him in every phase of his character. That he has been true to life in its every phase is manifest from the esteem and regard in which he is held by his neighbors and fellow citizens. He has won success by his own honest endeavor, indomitable energy and remarkable executive ability. These qualities have placed him in the front ranks of the farmers of Harrison county. He has outstripped less active plodders on the highway of life and has achieved a marked success in agricultural affairs, partially because of his own native ability and partially because of his splendid training. Arthur Beebee was born March 1, 1878, in La Grange township, Harrison county, Iowa. He is a son of Fred F. and Lois (Hudson) Beebee, who are referred to elsewhere in this volume. Arthur Beebee attended the schools of Beebeetown, later was a student at the Woodbine Normal School, graduating from the latter institution in 1896. After leaving school he took up railroad work and was engaged as a railroad brakeman by the Northwestern Railroad. He was employed by this company until 1903, when he returned home and engaged in farming and raising live stock with his father. They farmed and fed stock in partnership for four years, after which Mr. Beebee purchased seventy-two acres of land from his father and is now the proud owner of two hundred and seventy-one acres. To this farm he has added about four thousand dollars’ worth of improvements. An improvement of the farm which Mr. Beebee prizes very highly and justly, too, is an underground silo, which was the second one ever built in Harrison county. This silo is the invention of himself and father. Arthur Beebee now has three large underground silos on his two farms. He is a heavy cattle feeder during the feeding season. In 1913 he had the second largest field of alfalfa in the state, one hundred and sixty acres in all. From the time he began farming Arthur Beebee has kept the highest grade of live stock, and will have no other kind. Of all the young farmers of La Grange township, Arthur Beebee must be regarded as one of the most promising, and one of those men who can always be depended upon to be a benefactor to any community in which they reside. Mr. Beebee was married in 1901, to Alice Bower, and to this union two bright, energetic girls have been born. The elder, Helen, was born March 1, 1903. Lois was born October 9, 1904. Arthur Beebee is unquestionably a man who is regarded as a leader in La Grange township. He is public-spirited in the highest sense of the word. He is a Republican in politics. Mr. Beebee is a member of the Knights of Pythias and the Modern Woodmen of America, and is a leader in both these fraternal organizations. source of biographical sketch: “History of Harrison County, Iowa: its people, industries and institutions, with biographical sketches of representative citizens and genealogical records of many of the old families”, 1915, pages 829 - 830 Contributor: Genie Nuts 1976 (47118364)
