UPI reports Jesuit biologist Rev. Robert Owens-Howard says the sunflower, once rejected, could become a major American diet staple. He notes seeds offer high protein and vitamins, oil for cooking, flour from ground seeds, and versatile stalks.

Wheat as livestock feed gains appeal with lower wheat loan rate
Iowa State University economist Gene Futrell says the 1964 national loan rate for wheat at 1.30 makes wheat more competitive with corn oats barley and sorghum for livestock feed. He forecasts wheat use in 1964 65 feeding year rising to about 60 million bushels but still a small share of total feed. Futrell notes feeding value is usually higher than corn for beef cattle hogs and poultry and near equal in dairy rations. Some Colorado feed lots consider substituting up to one third of corn with wheat if price relationships persist, and Futrell urges watching market trends and consulting livestock specialists before major changes.
