Child Welfare Guide on Clothing for Active Eight to Twelve
Aston Smith of the Iowa Child Welfare Research Station at the State University of Iowa explains why children aged eight to twelve need abundant space for play, durable clothing, and supportive parents. He notes this age group shows peak vitality, rapid strength gains, and lower sickness, with girls especially wearing shoes from rope jumping and both genders engaging in rough play requiring tough garments.

Garden thinning and feeding for higher yields
June garden practices recommend thinning and fertilizing to boost yields. Extension horticulturist Ben Vance of Iowa State College advises thinning carrot, lettuce and beet seedlings with specific spacing and fertilizing cabbage broccoli and tomatoes by banding fertilizer around each plant then mixing into the soil.

Proper Side Dressing For Row Vegetables
The guide advises side dressing about 3 inches from the plants and 2 to 3 inches deep. For complete fertilizer like 8-8-8 apply 2 tablespoons per plant. Sprinkle about a pound on each side of a 100-foot row to control weeds. Vance favors a sharp hoe as the best tool, warns against deep cultivation that could injure feeder roots.
