This vintage postcard is the Dining Hall @ University Farm in Saint Paul, Minnesota. It's addressed to a Miss Hazel Fletcher in Grantsburg, Wisconsin, from a Lillian J. (We think that's the last initial). Postcard is stamped March 29, 1917 at Merriam Park Station, Saint Paul, MN.
Per the U of MN website: 1882—The university buys the 155-acre J. W. Bass Farm in St. Anthony Park to serve as the new site for the School of Agriculture and Experiment Station. This site was known as University Farm and is the current St. Paul Campus.
