IOWA HEMP GROWN IN 1943 Complying with the request of Secretary of Agriculture for good ground to grow hemp several farmers in the eastern part of Delana Township set aside several acres for that purpose. The hemp grew up to a height of 8-12 feet. When the hemp was matured it was cut and left to dry and then turned again to dry. High school pupils were let out of school to help turn the hemp. It was then tied into shocks, and hauled into the hemp plant at Humboldt and stacked and then processed and shipped out to make into rope. The hemp plant that was is now the armory in Humboldt, Iowa. The men in the picture are Carlisle Halsrud and Oliver Lee. Certificates were sent to those who participated in this war effort program. Names of some who participated are: Maurice Aasheim, Grefstad Bros., Maria Halsrud, Erling Olson, and Irwin Olson. Martin Dearest and his threshing machine. Martin lived in his small house just a few steps away northeast of the St. Olaf church. He was never married, but was considered the "handy man" around Bode, many times a helper in need. These stamps were given to the producers of hemp in the spring of 1943 to be posted so they could be seen.
