Harvest Apples With Care for Better 1931 Prices
Farmers who grade and store their 1931 apple crop will overcome the market stigma on farm grown fruit. Iowa State College’s T. J. Maney says avoid piling under trees, move fruit to grading shed promptly, wrap clean fruit, store in cool rooms, and use basements or cave storage with north facing openings and vent stacks to keep fruit longer and reduce losses.

Give Roses Some Protection Before Winter Arrives
Iowa State College floriculture professor E C Volz advises protecting tender roses before cold arrives. Hybrid teas and baby ramblers need earth mounding 8 to 10 inches high, plus dry leaf mulch. Digging up plants for trench burial under soil and manure also helps, and climbing roses can be covered on the ground with dirt or straw.
