Iowa State Figures Highlight Roads and Farms of 1925
Iowa residents may soon live more in cars as the United States Bureau of Public Roads notes 1925 car registrations near 860 thousand, predicting another record year. The Comstock farm near Sulphur Springs hosts a 25,000 bushel corn crib and 12,000 bushels of oats, a notable 743 acre operation led by Harm Neuman and family. The Iowa Children’s Home Society reports 287 legitimate cases last year, with high neglect but improving care via clinics. Des Moines Kiwanis supplied gear at 1500 dollars, and labor groups push pensioning the elderly rather than poorhouses.
