History

The local school district was formed in 1879, and within a few years Wisner High School produced its first graduates. For eight years the town was the terminus of the railroad making it a central shipping point for agricultural products and livestock. The cattle and hog feedlot industries remain the lifeblood of the region, along with the farming of feedcorn. Willet Price, in his autobiography "Boots and Forceps", claimed that there were more hogs within a twenty-five mile radius of Wisner than any other similar-sized region in the United States. Hence, the livestock feeding industry developed in close proximity of Wisner.
