Shopping habits from Ames nutritionist spark retailer notes
Jewel Graham of Iowa State University summarizes findings from U S Department of Agriculture researchers on Boston supermarkets. Fully 5 percent of shoppers in cross-aisle stores visited every area, while 25 percent did so in stores without cross aisles. Outside edges and cross aisles saw the most traffic as lists were used by fewer than one third. Shoppers with lists spent more time and money per minute. Among ages 31 to 50 the most complete shoppers were women visiting every store section.

The Iowa highway commission approved major relocations of Highway 34 in Southwest Iowa and Highway 30 in Central Iowa. The $8 million Highway 30 project spans 53 miles from Ogden to west of Marshaltown, bypassing Boone Ames Nevada State Center and Cole, with opposition from the Economic Protection League.
