Further Increase in Soybean Carryover Forecast
Iowa State University economist Bob Wisner predicts a higher soybean carryover next year if current crop prospects hold. He cites a 300 million bushel carryover this year and an expected 350 to 370 million next year, with a 1969 crop forecast around 1,106 million bushels. Prices may fall to roughly $2.11 to $2.14 as new crop beans enter the market, while loan-driven movement could lift prices 5 to 10 cents above the loan rate later in the year.

Summered houseplants should be brought inside soon
Iowa State extension horticulturist Ben Vance urges bringing tender tropical houseplants indoors before cooler weather. Spray with multi purpose spray, check for mites, wash dust, and repot if needed. Dig and store caladiums and tuber begonias in a dry frost free place with peat or vermiculite. Plant container-grown evergreens promptly with deep watering and weekly irrigation until frost. Transplant strawberries and raspberries in spring, not fall. Deeds listed for Akron properties and a local notice follow.
