Jno N. Ford on wagon pulled by two oxen.
One ox is smaller than the other. They are travelling on a well-worn track. The man on the wagon is wearing a dress hat. Jno. N. Ford homesteaded NE 14-31-19 W3 (SW Stranraer) in 1910. He drove these oxen until 1919.
Two men wearing suits are riding in the buggy. One man is holding reins and a whip. They are in a grass meadow - no road. The ox has shoulder and side scars, probably from harness used for plowing.
