The mock notice exaggerates features with playful, fantastical clothing and items, then clarifies the boy is tall for his age and 24 years 15 months, last seen in a long garb of improbable attire, and notes he is expected to be about the reader’s age.

Iowa State College Extension economists warn cattle feeders that prices in 1948 may be lower than 1936 and 1987 levels due to an expected over expansion of feeding. Factors cited include a smaller hog crop, high margins on fed cattle, movement of stocker cattle to grain belts, and a record fall crop.
