Rapid progress on the University of Nebraska city campus is noted by officials. The campus has grown to about 56 acres with 24 buildings focused around Memorial and central malls, forming an orderly, homogeneous plan for administrative, academic, and dormitory use.
The Farm Board announced a $100 million revolving fund to aid wheat farmers through the Farmers National Grain corporation. Loans to wheat co operatives would enable farmers to hold back grain until prices improve, with no set loan limit and possible Congressional追加 funding. Legge stated the plan aims for orderly marketing and uses storage receipts as security.
Grand Prairie residents report community dinners and hospitality for threshers. Dorothy Irwin helped with meals for threshers, Anna Jorgensen assisted at Charles Smith’s home, and families from Wisner to Sidney joined cooking and social events. Keystone class party and Clever Cooking club gatherings drew local attendees.
The clipping lists social glimpses with Mildred Houge as an overnight guest at the Ray Rex roth home and mentions a gathering at the W. E. Spearow residence on Thursday evening. Perey is noted in the fragment as part of the event.
George Le Diout of North Platte marketed a shipment of young cattle at Union stockyards showing a profitable result from a new feeding system. The method dispels the long held fear that livestock grazing on green forage in wet conditions would founder and die, a risk only present when animals are not accustomed or are allowed to gorge.
Le Diout fed twenty two year old calves by placing them in a dry lot then shifting to a full corn diet of 18 to 20 pounds per head daily. They were moved to an alfalfa field on April 17 while continuing corn, gaining about 467 pounds per head by early September after shipping, with about five head fed per acre of good alfalfa pasture for fattening. University of Nebraska North Platte substantiates the method with yearling heifers gaining 142.5 pounds on full corn from June 11 to August 6.
