Salisbury, manager of the Comstock Co-operative Creamery, and formerly for many years a successful educator, is a native of this county, born at Dallas, Sept. 26, 1880, the son of Charles and Theresa ( Cleaver) Salsbury, natives of New England. They came to Barron County, and homesteaded 80 acres in Section 18, Dallas Township, to which they later added another 80 acres. There the father has continued to carry on general farming. In connection with this he has been a traveling salesman at various times, and wool buyer for the Barron Woolen Mills. The mother died March 4, 1905. Of the eight children in the family there are now living seven: Charles Le, of Mondovi; Alta L., the wife of T. R. Forehand, of Rice Lake; Willis H. on the old homestead; Anna L., wife of Sylvanus Barton, of RiceLake; Frank, who farms in Prairie Farm Township; Ernest R., and Rosella, the wife of Martin Frenstad, of Almena Village. Ernest R. was reared on the farm. His early education was received in the district school. In 1902 he took the teachers’ course in the Wisconsin State Normal School at Superior. In 1903 he took the commercial course in the New Era Business College at Superior. With this preparation he started teaching in Turtle Lake Township. Thereafter he taught in this county for seventeen years. He was a good teacher, thoroughly competent, and possessed of the happy faculty of inspiring his pupils to do their best work. In 1917 he took his present positionas manager of the creamery. His efficient work has built up the institution and the increase in business under his leadership has been notable.
