The hen fruit of Iowa would go long
way toward buying all the other fruit
raised in the state. The hens Of Iowa
working along on time could buy the
whole state Of Nevada. including her
politicians and pay off the debt in a
few years. The poultry Of Iowa pro-
duced more than the farmlands of one
or two northwestern states that might
be mentioned but will not because OF
the feelings Of Iowa men who have
invested their poultry money there. In

all American farm products for the

horse high and hog wide. But one bird
stands out in bold relief above her
