HENRY OST. Qne of the up-to-date farmers and stockraisers of Sauk County is Henry Ost, proof of which is seen in his finely improved and carefully cultivated farm and his pure-bred stock, his beautiful herd of Holsteins being much in evidence. Mr. Ost belongs to a fine old family of the county, one that has belonged to Reedsburg Township for about sixty-two years. Henry Ost was born in Reedsburg Township, Sauk County, Wisconsin, October 21, 1871. His parents were Ferdinand and Frederika (Garske) Ost, both of whom were born in Germany. Ferdinand Ost came to the United States and to Sauk County in his youth and here was subsequently married to Frederika Garske, who came to Reedsburg, Wisconsin, with her parents, William and Henrietta (Koplein) Garske. After his marriage Ferdinand Ost bought a farm in Reedsburg Township consisting of 120 acres, and made a number of improvements on the place and then sold it and bought another farm, the second farm containing 152 acres. He took pride and interest' in this property and worked hard and made numerous improvements. About ten years before his death he moved to Reedsburg and there he died in his seventyfifth year. His wife died at.the age of sixty-five years. They had the following children: Augusta, Henry, Albert, William, Fred, Matilda and Anna. Henry Ost was eighteen years old when his parents moved on the farm he now owns. He had attended public schools and was ready to give his father assistance and continued with him until the father's retirement, and at the latter's death inherited the farm. The improvements that Mr. Ost had made are of a substantial kind. He has erected one of the finest residences in the township, and with its equipments of hot and cold water and electric light from his own plant is not excelled in comfort and convenience by any in the Town of Reedsburg. He uses modern methods on his farm and understands the scientific advantage of them, has a silo for. winter feeding and has adopted other modern plans that have been found of benefit. He takes justifiable pride in his fine herd of Holstein cattle.
Mr. Ost was married in 1894 to Miss Marie Flohr, who was born in Germany and was a daughter of Henry and Marie (Wolter) Flohr,
who came to Reedsburg in 1890 and bought a farm in this vicinity, which they later sold and now live retired at Reedsburg. They had four children: Henry, Marie, Ernest and William. Mrs. Ost died in 1904, leaving two children: Hugo and Maria.. In 1906 Mr. Ost was married to Miss Augusta Pufhal, who was born at Reedsburg, a daughter of Ferdinand and Henrietta (Schultz) Pufhal. No children have been born to Mr. Ost's second marriage. Ferdinand Pufhal, father of Mrs. Ost, was born in Germany, November 13, 1847, a son of William and Henrietta Pufhal, who in 1857 came to Sauk County and both are living near Reedsburg. Ferdinand and Henrietta Pufhal had the following children: Augusta, Emma, Herman, Henry, Martha and Berdina. Ferdinand Pufhal accompanied his parents to Sauk County in 1857 and still resides here and owns a farm of 120 acres in this township. He is a well known and respected citizen. In politics Mr. Ost is a staunch democrat, as was his father. The latter was a leading man in public matters while living in Reedsburg Township and served three years as a member of the board of supervisors, being a member at the time the bridge was built at Reedsburg,
an important era in local public affairs, having much to do with the town's subsequent development. Henry Ost is also an active citizen and has served six years on the board of supervisors, being progressive but prudent, as was his father, and he is serving at present on the township school board.
