Small Chance of Foreign Trade Reviving for Farmers
Iowa State College extension director R. K. Bliss told county agent D. D. Offringa that a revival of foreign trade or higher domestic demand is unlikely soon to absorb the current oversupply of corn and hogs. He urged farmers to reduce hog farrowings and corn plantings to boost prices, noting exports fell from 2 billion pounds in 1923 to 711 million in 1932 while nations like Germany and Denmark expanded hog production.

Iowa flax fits Iowa soils and follows corn
Flax is a profitable cash and nurse crop in Iowa and adapts well to heavy soils. Research professor L. C. Burnett notes flax trials in the corn belt show corn as the best preceding crop. Early spring sowing eases spring work, but flax should avoid sandy or peat soils and performs best on cool, heavy, thoroughly disced ground for firm seeding.
