http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122616011

Correspondence and miscellany of Gregg, founder (1886) of the Minnesota Farmers' Institutes. Letters from his wife Charlotte give news of family and friends, community activities, and events at their "Coteau Farm" near Lynd, Lyon County (Minn.). There are also legislative bills relating to the establishment of agricultural experiment stations, activities of Farmers' Institutes, and temperance; letters from Clarence H. Welch, who helped manage Coteau Farm; copies of letters (probably for use in advertising railroad lands for sale) to the land commissioner of the Duluth and Iron Range Railroad from farmers in St. Louis County (Minn.), attesting to their success in agriculture; and Gregg's autobiographical sketch (6 p., ca.1923).
