Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 20, Number 8, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 30 September 1898 — Warden Harley is Making Hia Sauer Kraut. [ARTICLE]

Warden Harley is Making Hia Sauer Kraut.

The prison authorities began making sauer kraut Friday from cabbage raised on the state farm. About 150 barrels of kraut will be put up, and after all the supply which will be consumed this fall is stored the warden will have about fifteen thousand heads, which will be buried for winter use. It requires about two hundred heads to feed a meal.
