Nats of crackling fire, firetrucks running fire investigators will try to determine what caused this fire that burned down a Buchanan County church. Firefighters from multiple departments were called to the old Saint Peter Lutheran Church in lamont around 6 30 last night. Thats on oak the church was no longer used for services. The Sheriffs Office said no one was inside when the fire started. Sentencing inow set for april for a woman who pleaded guilil in the death of a toddler. That woman ran a daycare in her home. Back on june 10th, the Pella Police Department received a 911 call for a 17 month old who was not responsive. Emergency crews rushed to the 1300 block of east 7th street. Police say the child had been sleeping improperly in a car seat, and died 2 days later. Pella police and the division of criminal investigations determined 32 year old Valerie Wackerly left the child unsupervised, and in the care of an uncertified adult. Yesterday, wackerly pleaded guilty to involuntary manslaughter. Dubuque police say theyve discovered a number of stolen items as part of a burglary investigation. They say they found stolen jewelry. Us dollars and foreign currency. Lawn care equipment. And cellphones and tablets. Police are asking peoplplto comemeorward to they have arrest warrants for 2 suspects former president bill clinton is reaching out to younger caucusgoers with stops at colleges in eastern iowa. Yesterday he stumped for his wife at Wartburg College in waverly and cornell mount vernon. He told the crowds that hillary is the bt candidate, not only because t because she has the experirice and emperament. 1 35 theres one person running for president in either party. Street in 2007 before that clean up those housing policies and the tt securities youre s sling, youre going to crater the economy. Only one hillary as candidates vye for support, we looked at how often iowas first in the nation caucuses actually chose the eventual president ial nominee. Since 1976, only three republican candidates who won the Iowa Caucuses have become the nominee. Thats not counting incumbents. And in that same time frame, democrats the nominee. The last time around, democrats selected incumbent barack obama in an uncontested race. And Republican Voters chose rick states. But mitt romney was the eventual nominee. Kcrg tv nines mark carlson explains why experts say its not about winning the caucuses, but how you finish. Back in 2008 Mike Huckabee won the gop iowa caucus. Now, 8 years later crowds at his events have shrunk, to at times only a couple dozen people. Its old fashion, grassroots, hahad to hand combat, a a i think thats what ultimately wins causes in iowa. Each race is different, and somebody who had a chance 8 years ago or 4 years ago, if they werent successful, well now its a different race, its a different dynamic. While huckabees story may lead people to think that iowans arent very good at picking p psidents. Bb iowans get even better when it comes to thats what ui Political Science professor tim hagle says the caucuses are all about. The purpose isnt to pick the nominee or the winner if it were we would get even more grief from the other states who would say oh well gee after iowa its over, well its not over, our job here in the Iowa Caucuses is to winnow the field. And thats exactly what hagle says iowans do st. The last six president s all nished in the top ththe in ioioa. Oururob is to separate the contenders from the pretenders, people that really arent or arent serious or at least not competing. Putting uncommitted voters aside only one time has the gop or democratic nominee not finished in the top three in their parties iowa caucus. So the saying, theres three tickets out of iowa is very accurate. We take this very seriously, we are very educated about the candidates their positions and so were kind of serving as a committee and say to the rest of the country, okay, here is who we recommend. Johnson countyyemocrats chair martha proud of their record. Now theres only one thing left to do. Make more historor and it all starts r rht here in iowa. I want to see everybody turn out to their causes all across the state isnt an extremely important process. Hagle says that old saying may be challenged this year because there are only three democratic candidates, while the gop has a huge field. Stay with us monday for complete caucus coverere.

Boom the city built the 200,000 gallon tower in 1976, and began municipal Water Service the next year. But the tower had been unused for years and was deteriorating. North libertys water superintenden t says the city had to wrap up contracts with cell and before taking it down. This tower has been removed, actually, unhooked from the Distribution System since probably 2010, so it hasnt served any purpose and would have been down a lot sooner except for trying to work out those contracts with the companies.

While as trade begins to open more with cuba, well look at what it means for agriculture, and whether iowa farmers will reap any benefits. But righghnow, heres a looooat todays opening farm mamaets. Good morning its. Good morning, this is the david geiger. Yesterday was the e st day of the 44th annual Iowa Pork Congress in des moines. And earlier this week. They hosted a meeting. Which looked at voting on a resolution that checked out other venues for the congress to move to in the future. The reasoning was because of a pending Water Quality leaving des moines would be a show of disapproval. However, because of a confusion ofofhether the city or water works board is in control of the lawsuit. There was an amendment that asked the pork board to investigate changing the venue. A committee would be set up to look at moving. But. Theres a catch. Some worry that theres no other place in iowa that has the facilities and size of the Convention Center in hy vee hall where the congress has been set up for years. Well i dont know that people want to move, i think the impetus behind it was the fact that people were upset, farmers were upset, pork producers, cattlemen, corn producers, soybean producers all are upset by the fact that the Des Moines Water Works is suing farmers over over this Water Quality issue. We dont think thats the way to make progress. Agriculture wont be getting any benefits from recent cuba trade announcements. The Obama Administration announced a loosening of regulations designed to do much for ag. While it lifts restrictions on payments and financing terms for exports. There are no inclusions of food or agriculture exports. Thats becausus financici food and ag products is prohibited by the trade sanctions reform and export enhancement act of 2000. Some ag exports are allowed under exemptions. But those fell about 37 percent in 2015. Mainly because of falling commodity prices. Cattle are plagued by a very volatile market. Some arent even going to t guess on it. While the grains are coming down from a brief rally. Well, i mean, the corn market, were up in our own roach ag cell signal here day 7 and were finally seeing some weakness here. And id say that when we have these kind of rallies. Lets just basically say weve had a 20 cent rally. Not much of one but a 20 cent rally, hard to hold much more than 5 or 6 days without some sort of a sort of new demand news, which i think really, thats what the corn and certainly soybean and wheat markets need. Is they need demand stimulus and were not getting a whole lot of demand stimulus right now. I really like the hog market and have been thinking that hogs certainly on the feb contract wouldldake a pretty run here and it has but if you look at the chart weve got a 200 day moving average, that were running into some Serious Problems with here today with 6572. I think its really in the deferred over in the hog market that producers have more downside. I like these hog markets where they are, i think theyre making a pretty good rally. But im not surprised were seeing some corrections here off of those long term moving averages. And thats all i have for the show today. Thanks for joining us. ll see you next time.
