Abstract
The Story of the origins and growth of the leading farm practices in Iowa traces the essential steps in general diversified agriculture in its fullest attainment to the present time. The period involved, extending from the beginnings of modern systematized applications of scientific principles to the practices and business of cultivation and husbandry down to the latest achievements of the scientist, the technician, and the manager, is long enough to present a balanced perspective, but sufficiently recent to provide adequate records for verifiable conclusions and pertinent comparisons.
