Charles H Yanney of McLean County reports remarkable alfalfa results on the George S Hanna Place. He built a stand on six acres with record management and intensive hog pasturing. In 1907 yields reached two tons per acre with 150 pigs, and 1908 produced strong returns across hay and pork, with earnings of $693 total per six acres.
