Beierschmitt grows diversified farming in Black Hawk county
Beierschmitt and his sons Walter and Ralph farm 660 acres near Fairbank and southwest of here with two well kept farms. They report 48 acres of red clover from the second crop yielding 56 bushels of cleaned seed and 52 bushels from 95 acres at another site. They sold the seed for 200 dollars per bushel and use a grain binder for harvest. They raise white-face cattle and hogs with three carloads sold recently bringing over 10 000 dollars. The pear developed from an old seed line has earned favorable notices from Iowa State College and the U S department of agriculture, and a thorn-apple tree bears pears as a curiosity.
