Timber scarcity spurs Iowa farmers to plant trees
The forestry department of Iowa State College reports farmers use 6 to 10 million dollars of lumber annually and demand is rising. Experts urge farm woodlots on waste land to grow rapid softwood timber within ten years, which can be creosoted to last as long as hardwoods. Extension service will promote softwood fence posts, more woodlots, shelterbelts, and farm wood use to meet future needs.

Iron Troubles for Home Use from Iowa State College Advice
Miss Glenna Hesse of Iowa State College offers practical guidance for women facing iron heating problems. She notes most issues stem from the screw plug or base attachments, as these parts endure wear and wires break easily. If the iron won’t heat, check the plug wires, loosen the plug screw to bare connections, and reattach after scraping. If the cord joint is faulty, remove the composition cover and inspect the end, replacing as needed.
