Resealing Key to Corn Storage Problem in Iowa
Iowa farmers urged to join resealing program for price supported corn to ease storage shortages. About 149 million bushels face delivery after loans mature July 31, with government and commercial bins unable to absorb the volume. Meyer cites limited space and calls on farmers and warehouses to cooperate with the government to avert a grain storage crisis.
Plan for 1965 Iowa corn storage reseal a government aid approach
The plan urges producers to keep at least 50 million bushels of 1953 and 1954 price supported corn on farms for another year, to maximize use of existing warehouses and binsites, and to rely on government help for any additional space after resealing. It aims to boost storage payments to farmers and warehousemen, encouraging expansion of storage capacity while avoiding major new public construction. The 1955 reseal offers extendable loans to July 31, 1956 at 3 percent, with 15 cent per bushel storage payments for year-long reseal retention and pro-rated payments for earlier loan repayment.

Clipped Forage Feeding Boosts Pasture Capacity in Iowa Study
Iowa State College researchers report feeding clipped green forage to beef cattle increases pasture carrying capacity by about 2 percent compared with continuous grazing. Wise Burroughs notes the protein supplement’s effect depends on grain presence, with a stronger boost when grain is fed on pasture via self-feeders, linked to corn palatability and fuller feed intake.

Guidance of Children by Mary Youtz
Guidance discusses a six to ten year old child as energetic and curious, valuing health, emotional security, and responsibility within the family. It notes imitation of experienced caretakers, dependence on parental love, and the child's drive to please parents while learning to be independent.
Encouraging Activity and Earnest Participation
The guidance promotes engaging a child with activities matched to his ability and short attention span. Start with a shared, enthusiastic venture you want him to try, then let him contribute as much as he can while he earns rewards or treatment for effort.
