Alois Prochaska, who is meeting with gratifying success in his agricultural operations, owns an excellent farm of one hundred and sixty acres on section 9, Elk precinct. He was born on that farm on the llth of November, 1881, and is a son of Michel and Anna Prochaska, both of whom were born in Bohemia. In 1875 they came to the United States and the father purchased a quarter section of land in Elk precinct, Saunders county, Nebraska, paying therefor four dollars per acre. For many years he was actively engaged in farming, raising both grain and stock, but he at length retired because of his advanced age and is now living with his son on the home place. Alois Prochaska is indebted for his education to the public schools of Elk precinct and to his father for training in farm work. As soon as old enough he began assisting his father and as the years passed aided more and more in the operation of the homestead. When his father retired he purchased the farm, which he has since operated on his own account. His crops are nearly always excellent, and he derives a good income from the sale of his cattle and hogs. He manages his work well, is industrious and progressive and is recognized as one of the efficient young farmers of his locality. On the 15th of August, 1905, occurred the marriage of Mr. Prochaska and Miss Agnes Kavan, who is a daughter of John and Anna Kavan, and to this union have been born two sons, George and Charles. Mr. Prochaska supports the candidates and measures of the democratic party at the polls and takes the interest of a good citizen in public affairs, although he has never been an office seeker. He devotes his entire time and attention to agricultural pursuits, and the prosperity which he has gained is well deserved. In all of his dealings with his fellowmen he has lived up to high moral standards, and he is accorded the respect which genuine worth alone commands. His entire life has been passed in this county, and he is a representative of one of its honored pioneer families. He is continuing the work of development and improvement which his father began and has great faith in the future of this section of the state.
