Old Iowa farm notes on corn stover and stock
A long excerpt from a rural Iowa note details saving corn stover and husked corn as cheap winter feed for cattle calves horses and other stock. It discusses feeding blends, storage in barns, and costs, then shifts to a pioneer plow with cow horn handles and a nine foot beam. The text also includes weather observations, horse race opinions, and various advertisements and anecdotes from the era.
