On Pomme de Terre River
The Pomme de Terre River is a 125-mile tributary of the Minnesota River in western Minnesota, draining 875 square miles of mostly agricultural land. It issues from Stalker Lake in Tordenskjold Township, Otter Tail County, and flows south through Grant, Stevens and Swift counties and the cities of Barrett, Morris and Appleton, entering the Minnesota River at Marsh Lake about four miles southwest of Appleton. Lakes along its course include Pomme de Terre, Barrett and Perkins lakes, several held by small dams. The name refers to the wild turnip, a plant with a potato-shaped root.
