Taker Greamery to Pay 57 Cents Through September
Traer Iowa September report shows Traer cooperative creamery paying 57 cents a pound for butterfat in September, up from 55 cents in August. The plant, started June 1925, has grown to 350 patrons and over 700 names, with more than 57,000 pounds of butter produced last month. Bendickson projects 750,000 pounds by year end but expansion limited by building size, a new eight ton ice machine to arrive in November, and potential delays in refrigeration firms. Local prices and butter holdings suggest no sharp price drop this winter, with the plant aiming to be out of debt.

Farmers urged to harvest weigh plots for fertilizer results
J L Boutman, soils extension specialist, notes that visual inspection cannot reveal fertilizer impact on corn. He says differences of about 15 bushels per acre may be needed to detect gains, and only careful harvesting and weighing across 90 cooperative fields will reveal true benefits or lack thereof.
