cedar rapids, ia.
Was 21 at the time, we had about 275 bred cows at the time, 2 were covered with drifts and died, these were yarded at the time. Drift on the south side of the silage pit was 14-15' deep. Oats was good that year, corn about normal. By the end of the week, snow was all gone except in the ditches.
