Special Session to Act A State Bond Issue
Des Moines Iowa on February 20 widespread sentiment favors a $100000000 state road bond to finish Iowa's primary road system. Glenn Haynes of the Iowa Good Roads Association says a special session in March with a unified legislature will approve the bond bond issue, funded from the primary road fund without extra property taxes. Federal aid could lift the annual surplus to 5700000 or more, easing fears of tax burden. The survey lists six advantages: speed, interest savings, cheaper contracts, centralized planning, reduced detours, and counties freed from current bonds to advance local roads.

Northern grown seed favored for Iowa potato crop
Iowa State crop specialists report northern grown Cobbler and Ohio seed offer the best bet for Iowa potato brewers. J Fitch notes first time in years northern seed may excel Iowa seed in early varieties while hot weather caused Iowa seed to over ripen. 1926 seed kept by growers also yields poor results. late varieties escaped damage and remain high quality. Prices this year may be lower for seed, helping Iowa growers.
