George W. Brown speaks before the Algona Rotary, disputing Mr. Haynes of the Good Roads Association and state figures on who pays for roads.

Prospects Bright for Baby Beef Producers and Cattle Market
Iowa State College expert Rex Beresford says beef producers who raise and feed properly will earn profits in coming years. He notes U.S. beef cattle are down about a quarter from 1920, with higher marketings last year, and predicts production will not catch up to consumption for at least two years. Feeding calves at home is advantageous as feeds are cheap and calves command higher prices. The article also covers land values shifts, farm foreclosures, and a New York editor’s view on news as a reflection of abnormal events.
