...Washington, the Farm Holiday movement plowed to a standstill but not without loud backfirings. Wham! a cheese factory went up at Belgium, Wis. Wham! Wham! two more were dynamited at Krakow and Zachow. Repudiating their Holiday leader, Wisconsin farmers, bundled against the biting winter winds, held up city-bound milk and food trucks, braved ax handles, tear gas and blackjacks, stormed the Sunshine dairy at Waterford three times in a day, destroying 34,000 Ib. of milk by dumping it on the ground, pouring gasoline in the vats.

In spite of announcement by the strike's fomenter, wild-haired, bespectacled Milo Reno, that "instructions were issued that there was not to be any picketing," John Farmer went out on the highways to turn back city-bound shipments of foodstuffs. Iowa, seat of the Farmers Holiday Association, was the scene of widespread picketing. A man driving a truckload of cattle into Sioux City was badly beaten. Governor Herring called out militiamen to help patrol highways in the western part of his State. Veterans of last spring...
