Sheep Farming Helps Jacob Weiss Grow a Big Crawford Farm
Jacob Weiss and sons operate a 1500 acre Crawford county farm and raise about 6000 sheep. Weiss has been in the sheep business 20 years, shipping in western animals and feeding them three to four months, then selling in January to Chicago. He says gains run 20 to 25 pounds per head and that sheep have saved his operation, cleaning corn fields better than cattle. In a closing note, he mentions Doll's Restaurant in Oskaloosa.
