Urbana urges proper canning to prevent spoilage and save resources. Grace B. Armstrong of the University of Illinois explains two core methods: heat foods and containers to sufficient temperatures, with low-acid items like asparagus and corn requiring pressure canning, while high-acid foods such as tomatoes may use boiling water baths.
Illinois extension livestock expert Harry G. Russell urges farmers to stick with current steer programs not to rush feeding before autumn price cuts. He notes finish weight by October 1 is unlikely, pasture gains without grain are possible, and marketing after October 1 will likely mirror last fall's market.
Russell analyzes price rollbacks and feeding options for 600 pound steers. He compares pasture costing about 31 dollars per hundred weight at 825 pounds versus corn feed costs totaling 310.50 dollars with a break even price of 34.50 per cwt, noting a final 900 pound year end weight and urging use of cheap roughage and a 90 day fall finish to fit market conditions.
