CH|CAC0AN SINGS
|OWA'S PRAISES
CALLS THIS STATE THE FINEST
AGRICULTURAL DISTRICT OF
THE ENTIRE COUNTRY.

Chicago, Jan. ia Chicago grain
and stock authority, James E. Poole
has the following to say about the stat
Of Iowa:
Going across Iowa by daylight
you desire to see the fair face of tn
greatest agricultural state in tn
union of Incompatible commonwealth
do not cross Iowa while reposing il
the arms Of Morpheus. Take a day
light trip and keep your gaze fixed OF
the landscape.
Iowa is the greatest rectangular
piece of fertile soil on the face of THU
mundane sphere. In one respect i
enjoys unique distinctions it is all good
Last year Iowa's field crops wer,
$37,000,000 more than in 1912. TIL,
value of it's own crop exceeded that o
the previous year by over $42 900 900
its aggregate value on a so cent pc!
bushel basis being $194,311,000.
In addition it raised oats to the value
of $56,049,000 on a "a cent basis; spring
wheat $4,132,000 on IS cent basis an(
winter wheat $9,0OO,OOo, on a II cen
basis.
In addition it grew $4,000. 900 worth
of barley, $4,000 Of rye, $4,00O,000 OF
potatoes and sS,000,OO0 of hay.
Figures are wearisome but these are
eloquent and yet Iowa's productive
capacity has been far from reached
1t is draining thousands of acres an
nually and has other thousands sus-
septible Of improvement in the same
manner.
Iowa fattens more cattle, raises more
hogs than any other state in the
union. With the exception of Colorado
1t fattens more sheep and lambs than
any other on grain.
Lea y
by the siren song Of the exploiter of
far away pastures, but they are COM
ing back by the hundred thousand.
After trial elsewhere many are
brought to realization that Iowa is
good place to live.
Iowa has been a hungry purchase ser
of stock cattle at Chicago, Kansas City,
Omaha and Sioux City for a year
past. Iowa prefers northern bred cat
tie, but being unable to get them has
taken the other horn Of the dilemma.
1t has been. buying anything capable
of putting on gain in the same man
ner that packers have been taking
anything that will bleed at the stock
yards.
During the drought last summer
when Kansas was glutted with thin
cattle out of parched southwestern
in saving the day for the drought suf-
ferers 1t bought cattle freely in an eff
fort to replenish deficiency. During the
drought Iowa was spot on the map
favored by nature. Had it been other
wise graziers in the southwest would
have encountered financial disaster.
Iowa has stepped into the front rank
as a feeder of western sheep. few
years ago Minnesota, by reason Of
cheap elevator screenings held that
distinction, then Michigan took it and
now the sceptre of supremacy has been
passed across the Mississippi river to
Iowa. With the single exception Of
Colorado, Iowa finishes more western
sheep and lambs than any other state
in the union.
See Iowa while it's surface is bathed
in the golden sunlight Of a winter day
The panorama Of nature afforded is
a vertable inspira ton. Compared with
the smiling face of the Hawkeye state
the boasted Nile valley is a mere
pocket.
