A 15 year old patent describes an auto device by an engineer in Manchester to pull road dust into funnels from wheel areas into a central box.

Corn-Hog Price Ratio Reverses But Hog Market Still Copes
The Sears Roebuck Agricultural Foundation notes the corn hog price ratio has turned unfavorable for feeders as corn prices rise and hogs fall.
