Iowa Farming on Display for Nation's Farm Editors
Iowa hosts a three day summer convention for more than 300 farm editors with delegates from across the United States. Leaders from state farms and industries will show touring stops at ISU and federal and private facilities, plus a 1963 Iowa dinner and speeches by notable figures including Blanchard, while rural mail carriers meet in Mason City and a 4 H girl Heidi Keir, an Austrian war orphan, is chosen as a state officer.
