Book Description
Excerpt from History of Agriculture in Minnesota In 1859 and 1860, all the grain was handled in seamless sacks; at first they started at 125 bags to a carload then they got up to 140, and, as long as it moved in sacks, 140 sacks was the limit, a little over eight tons to the carload. Later they did without the sacks by building bulk barges, lined on the inside and with cargo boxes with covers over them to keep the grain dry; and in that way it was transported in bulk. Milwaukee was practically the market for all our grain. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
