Capitol Capsules: County Attorneys Refuse to Draft Liquor Bill
The Iowa County Attorneys Association rejected a proposal to aid the 1953 legislature in drafting a bill to legalize liquor sales by the drink. The decision followed supportive talk at Des Moines and amid criticism from Attorney General Robert L. Larson of a Supreme Court ruling on beer permits. Larson said policing beer outlets relies on state action. Other items note Scout Director Melvin Tudor becoming Iowa Tall Corn Area Council executive, Beardsley’s post-primary rest, and calls to repeal Iowa labor laws and expand the labor department.

Marketing Eggs By Grade Is Important
Marketing eggs by grade boosts profits for laying flocks says Iowa State College extension poultryman L Z Eggleton. Seasonal price spreads between No 1 and No 2 eggs are rising from four cents to an estimated 10 to 12 cents by midsummer. Gather eggs three times daily, store cool, ease the large end up, and market by grade at least twice weekly to fetch higher prices. Practices such as confining the flock, separating roosters from hens, and providing one nest per four to five birds also improve profits.
