  CHARLES P. OAKS. Agricultural conditions in Outagamie county, Wisconsin, have changed to such an extent during the past several decades that the enterprising farmer has been compelled to change to a large degree his methods of treating the soil. New discoveries have been made, powerful machinery invented and new innovations introduced, and he who would reap the most beneficial results from his property must keep himself conversant with the changes of the times, or put his lands under the supervision of one who is possessed of a thorough and comprehensive knowledge of conditions. Charles P. Oaks, a scientific farmer of Outagamie county, who is operating a tract of 420 acres in Bovina and Liberty townships for C. W. Greenfield, of Chicago, Illinois, is a native of Wisconsin, having been born in Tustin, Waushara county, April 25, 1873, son of Milford G. and Lydia (Bennett) Oaks, natives of New York State, who were married in Wisconsin. They are now living in Winneconne, Winnebago county, the father, who has been an agriculturist all of his life, being seventy years of age, and the mother having reached the age of sixty-eight years. They had a family of eight children. Charles P. Oaks received his education in the district schools in the vicinity of his father's farm, and until eighteen years of age remained on the family homestead. At this time he started out to work for wages, but after about five years he came to his present position, where he carries on extensive general farming, dairying and stockraising operations. The land is under cultivation with the exception of forty acres, and yields large crops. Mr. Oaks milks on an average of thirty cows, makes his own butter in the winter months, and during the summer seasons sends his milk to the cheese factories. In 1890 Mr. Oaks was married to Catherine Hooper, born January 14, 1873, the eldest daughter of William and Lois (Simons) Hooper, natives of New York State, who were married in Wisconsin. Mrs. Hooper died in Winneconne, Wisconsin, in 1876, and Mr. Hooper, who was a fisherman by occupation, passed away at the age of seventy-six years, in 1902. Mr. and Mrs. Oaks have had three children. Nellie, William and Marie. They are consistent attendants of the Congregational Church at Shiocton. In politics Mr. Oaks is a Republican, and his fraternal connection is with the Modern Woodmen of America.
