Black Hawk dairy cows move to Wisconsin buyers

In Hudson Iowa on April 14 1920 Chicago health rules forced only TB-tested dairy stock into the city. A carload of 22 Holstein cattle from Black Hawk County was shipped to Kenosha County Wisconsin purchased by O A Turnox of Kansasville Wis. The sale marks a notable cross state dairy trade with Black Hawk breeders selling grade and purebred cows to a Wisconsin farmer who plans to use them on his own farm. The cattle were TB tested and declared clean, some in milk and set to freshen soon, with several having prior association records adding value. Local sellers included Joe Geany and Strayer Perneaux in Hudson and others from Waterloo and Madison.
