Thank you to a reader for alerting me to it; I would have missed it. It comes from the Bismarck Tribune.
All I can say is this ranks alongside my posting that noted that North Dakota was #1 in the states with regard to Premarin production.
In this case the story still has to do with horses, but not with their waste product.
At one time in North Dakota's history, the state was number one in transporting airplanes to Canada.
You should read the article in its entirety to get the whole story, but without spoiling the ending, here's a 30-second soundbite:
Due to US laws at the outbreak of what would become World War II, it was illegal to fly war material into Canada. As the ending of the article states, a "little Yankee ingenuity and a stout rope" solved that problem.
