Deeds recorded involve transfers in Muscatine and surrounding townships as Larry E McDaniel and Sharon McDaniel transfer to Theodore A Pratt and Victoria A Pratt, while Robert Reed transfers to Stockton Realty Co and Clifford Pantel to Rich Freezers Inc. An Iowa State University farm price specialist notes that the Jan 1 cattle inventory stands at 108.8 million and predicts favorable beef production growth with small net increases in beef cows and heifers, suggesting a somewhat larger 1968 beef calf crop and steady prices barring weather or marketing shocks. The Iowa Farm Bureau will host a statewide natural resources conference on water and air pollution in Des Moines, per president J Merrill Anderson, with cattle market signals from early 1968 indicating modest gains and stable demand.
