R. and Edward Janousek managed the place together for sometime. He also worked in the Herman Stastny tavern.

In 1921, he moved from the farm southwest of Milligan and purchased Alois Petracek dry goods and grocery store, which he and his wife managed. Later he sold the store.

After the Farmer's Co-operative Company was organized, F.R. Soukup and his son, Frank, were among some of the employees.
