No Crimes Committed, But Profits Hidden in Plain Sight, Viroqua WI, 1911

It’s a scheme so clever, you’d think it was cooked up by a mastermind. But no, it’s just good old-fashioned business acumen. Farmers in Vernon County, Wisconsin, have been raking in the profits from their humble farms, all while keeping their cash under the radar. According to the St. Paul Pioneer Press, a history of byproducts of manufacture and their relation to the main industry would make for a fascinating book. And one that would hold considerable food for thought for farmers across the country, including those in the Northwest.
