Cattle Feeders From North Iowa Seek Hay and Corn
Northern Iowa farmers from Mitchell Howard and Worth counties have been writing to Cedar Falls and Black Hawk farmers since last fall seeking corn and hay. They report a big corn and hay crop but say local prices show farmers are not eager to part with surplus stock. Several Mitchell county men shipped 60 to 70 loads of fat stock this season, while many are buyers and finishers rather than feeders, aiming to balance bank accounts as markets fluctuate.

McClean System of Hog Sanitation Cuts Worm Losses
Iowa farmers praise the McClean county method for eradicating hog round worms. Albert Oelze reports pre-1920 losses from worms, but after adopting sanitation steps such as pen scrubbing, clean farrowing practices, and moving piglets to clover fields, pig production rose from 353 pigs to 691 in one year with 725 saved in 1921. The system proves profitable and raises marketable hogs, with sows kept clean and pigs moved early to reduce infection.
