The cobs were delivered to a big pile. We were one of the first to feed corn cobs to cattle.

We made more money feeding molasses, urea, and corn cobs to cattle than we ever did feeding dent corn.

In the Depression we had to divert corn acreage.

It was necessary to have an even depth of corn on the top compared to the sides, so the air would not take the easiest route and not evenly dry the stored corn.

We got to know the competition very well. In the '50s popcorn made a big growth in sales. Our main push was to produce the best quality and sell in quality retail outlets.

I moved to Princeton, Indiana, and became a professional Farm Manager for that Princeton Farms.
