"so if we do have more cattle on feed, then the supply with demand, how do we increase throughput through the packing plant so to speak when those packers and retailers are definitely making a profit on the consumer side of things." deppe adds market volatility is something else the state and national are working on figuring out. ---- a new nationwide poll says farmers and ranchers are significantly favoring donald trump over out. ---- a new nationwide poll trump over hillary clinton in the race for president.. in the agri-pulse farm and ranch poll.. 55 percent of respondents say they'll vote for donald trump.. only 18 percent say they'll cast a ballot for hillary clinton.. third party candidates are barely polling.. 2 johnson.. and one percent is behind green party jill stein.. trump attracted 59 percent of male voters.. and 37 percent of female voters.. clinton had the support of 15 percent of males and 33 percent of females.. in the battleground states.. ohio has trump at 68 percent among farmers.. and florida has 58 percent for eight percent refused to answer.. ---- and that's all the time i have for the show today.. thanks for tuning in.. i hope to see you again next time. ---- we'll post a video every day in the agriculture section of kcrg.com. i'm david geiger with the agribusiness report. trt oc: standard tonight you might see some ghosts and ghouls running around trick-or-treating. most of those will be kids in disguise. investigators are digging into the real thing. bumps in the night, lights you'd expect on halloween. but some people say they experience those types of occurences on a daily basis, in their home. there are paranormal investigators right here in eastern iowa who are looking into the science of people's otherworldly experiences. they've made it their mission to search for the supernatural and to separate fact from fiction.

"54:24we're not here to actucally hunt for spirits, we're validation for clients who contact us with real issues." it starts with an interview, then an overnight stay. johnston and his team spend a lot of time listening, walking the home, and trying to communicate with a wide variety of equipment.

"59:47if it senses anything in the atmosphere as it bends around a 3d grid that it interprets as a human form, it will map it as a stick figure. we've had some really amazing validating captures on that." johnston showed me how the camera works in action. "19:55watch right up here.." this video is from a home in reinbeck. the camera is set up laced with sensors sitting on the couch. that bear is used to communicate with the paranormal, it talk when something gets near it. if you look near the top of the couch, you will see a figure appear. you can see its arms and legs moving johnston's team shortly, it turns toward it. moves down near it. touches it, and vanishes. johnston said this is one of the more rare cases a client has contacted him about. "4:16she said that they're little girl was getting up in the middle of the night and clawing at the plaster in her room. she said that she was being told by two evil little kid spirits to do this." the family had the child ps she passed. after ruling that out, they took the case. this is another video from that home. here's johnston sitting in the master bedroom, and here's a camera sitting outside the door. when you place them side by side, you can see what happens in real time. johnston said these doors were latched.. and suddenly something happens.

" we live in an area where we have freeze-thaw cycles that happen quite often so there needs to be some texture on the concrete to keep people from slipping and falling. roads have that. parking garages have that. hard lots have that. so offering the multi-texture brush allows customers to go from one job to the other job, apply a soft texture to a medium texture depending on what job they're doing." brushes going back to the mid 1950s -- and, as jeff is quick to note, a brush is just not another brush. "we make a very, very special line of concrete finishing brush. industry standard is about 24 to 30 inch finishing brush with a basic texture, a single texture. we offer five different textures to our customers and we make them in 2, 4, 6, 8 and 10-foot wide. " as technology marches on relentlessly... " this is an example of o maple block that has a special shape that takes the weight off the brush to make it ea use. " ...that also is true with brushes. jeff says a nylon brush is more durable. "has a retention memory to it. if you pour boiling water over it, it will go back to its original shape. " here is how the assembly process works -- with that hum that fills the room all day. "this is a staple-set machine and it does a dual purpose. it sets the machine and it also fills the brushes. it's got a very specific tolerance to be drilling those holes and, on the other side, once dan is done, drilling the hole and he'll move that block to the other side to begin putting the filament into the other holes." we're always looking for ideas know of any businesses or c chris.earl@kc rg.com. americans are expected to spend a record $8.4 billion dollars on halloween costumes and decorations this year. balloons etc. & the costume emporium says this is its busy season. workers say this year, the grinch is the most popular adult costume. in second, is dressing as senior citizens. the shop says the stream of customers in the final weeks this year before halloween is steady.
