Legacy Journal: Food for Thought and Summer Snow
Section:
FrontPage
Summary:
The news focus recently has been on:
* Flooding in Iowa. Never-the-less the NCAA Track and Field Finals in Des Moines continue without a pause.
* Global warming is predicted to eliminate sea ice in the Arctic Ocean this summer, But,new snow means June skiing this weekend in Aspen, Colorado. The Rockies promise to water the streams and rivers of Colorado where the fishing and the hay production will be super.
* Large fresh tomatoes are reported to be the source of some recent clusters of Salmonella. The recommendation is to wash or cook your beefsteak tomatoes before eating. Maybe a ketchup substitute would be prudent.
Main:
Meanwhile: Good news continues.
* Iowa corn futures are Strong.
* May retail sales are OK.
* A record number of Americans are employed and employers are looking for well trained, reliable workers. Illegal immigrants, workers, visitors, family members and students are filing papers and voluntarily returning to their countries of origin.
* There are no major strikes, fuel shortages, transportation slowdowns or empty food shelves. Hospitals are open for business and firefighter are prepared for the summer season, Congress will soon join the school kids for summer recess.
* Kid and parents are learning about organic produce, self pick fruit and vegetable farms, and home grown
tomatoes. Freshness, known supply chain, local support, and even cost may be some of the advantages.
Unfortunately, you still have to put gas in the van whenever you substitute train and truck diesel out of the distribution system.
