The Romance Has Gone Out Of My Marriage Column
A humorous column records surveys on why marriages fail and why romance wanes. It contrasts past fears of spinsterhood with modern views of attraction, forgiveness, and family dynamics. The writer shares personal anecdotes about marriage, in-laws, and cultural shifts, ending with a quip about dragging an innocent groom to the altar.

Insecticide Performance Shortfall for Iowa Rootworms in 1974
Iowa agronomists led by Harold Stockdale note high rootworm populations in 1974 reduced insecticide effectiveness. Factors include timing before May 15, moisture swings, and misapplication. Larvae outside treated bands, shallow roots from May moisture, and rapid insecticide breakdown lowered control. Stockdale urges soil incorporation and exploring different insecticide classes for 1975.
