Poultry Bureau Bill Faces Reconsideration in Iowa House
Des Moines hearings reopen on House Bill 40 to establish a state poultry bureau under agriculture.

Proponents urge a poultry experimental station to aid small farmers and practical raisers. The Iowa Poultry and Pet Stock association backs the original bill with a 5000 dollar annual appropriation to stimulate the industry.
