Time Needed For Board Program Schilling Says
Des Moines October 17 William F Schilling federal farm board member praised the agricultural marketing act. He urged farmers to study the act and cooperate locally regionally and nationally to market commodities effectively while noting the need for gradual improvements and avoiding bickering over responsibility. He described the board as guiding and funding orderly marketing rather than delivering prosperity. He warned against destructive competition among cooperatives and stressed a home base for cooperative start ups leading to regional and national marketing structures.

Experimental Work in Europe Nearly the Same as Here
Ames, Ta Oct 17 Agricultural experiment stations in Europe pursue similar problems to those in the United States. Dr A In Bakke of Iowa State college, after six months in Europe, reports European stations study grain respiration and storage moisture with exacting tests. In England moisture in combined wheat stays above 18 percent due to climate. Oxford is testing dryers to reach 15 percent. Denmark and Sweden run connected stations with demonstrations and observe delegations. Copenhagen seed laboratory is the world’s largest, controlling two thirds of Denmark’s seed supply.

Poorer corn crop lowers number of cattle fed
The October report from the USDA Bureau of Agricultural Economics notes a 20 percent drop in cattle and calves shipped from markets into the corn belt feed lots during July to September, down 13 percent from the five year average and the second smallest in 12 years. Causes include poorer corn prospects, lower fat cattle prices, reduced profits in early 1929, and absence of 1928 speculative activity.
