The Des Moines Register gives us a glimpse back to one the bleakest times in Iowa's agricultural history.
I listened to many of these same stories from my father and grandfathers. But I hadn't heard of the posting of machine guns at intersections in an effort to keep the farmers in check.
Seems to me that some of those farmers would have been good with a rifle. Maybe some of them should have sniped the machine gun nests.
