The Stuff We Find...

Such as 8 ears of bi-color sweet corn, knit from wool, by the Star Knitting company of La Crosse, in 1921. Best of all, it apparently won a prize at the Annual Grain Show! I hope someone is inspired to research the Wisconsin Agricultural Experiment Association and see what old news items you can find about their 1921 grain show. Something this "experimental" surely made the news--and it took a blue ribbon.
