Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Iowa Engineer, Vol. 13: October 1912
There is every reason to believe firmly that Iowa can, if she will, develop most extensively her manufacturing industries, which have already become so great in spite of absolute neglect.
The Iowa farmer will profit at least as much as anyone by our manufacturing development, for he now labors under a very great disadvantage in being exploited for the sake of long hauls for railways, and compelled both to buy and to sell in distant markets.
To serve the best interests of her people Iowa must develop symmetrically every side of that great quadrangle of material progress, agriculture, manufactures, commerce, mining.
