Iowa Turtle Farm Found
to Be Paving Venture

Des Moines, Iowa.-Ninety per cent
Of the turtles shipped to hotels come
from the only turtle farm in Iowa near
Fertile, Worth county. Hanson John
son and his helpers operate this unique
farm. In underground stockades they
keep thousands of big and little turtles
for winter and spring markets.
About August 1 each year, Johnson
and his aids open the drive on Iowa
snappers. They catch the turtles In
the streams of northern Iowa. The
turtles are caught with nets in some
streams and with special wire traps
baited with liver in others. They are
then hauled in trucks to the turtle
farm at Fertile and placed in the I'm.
derground stockades.
johnson this winter shipped on an
average 2,400 pounds Of live turtles a
week to Des Moines, Chicago and
eastern cities. He has little trouble
with his turtles, once he lands them
in the underground stockades. He
feeds them on minnows caught in the
nearby streams. This is his fourth
season in the turtle game and he said
there was increasing demand each
season.
