Wisconsin Soybean Farmers About To Lose More Money To Tariff Battle

One of the main U-S crops affected by new foreign tariffs will be soybeans.  China retaliated against tariffs imposed by the Trump administration with its own tariffs on 34-billion dollars’ worth of American products.  Wisconsin soybean farmers face more losses in a market already putting many of them out of business.  Low prices for dairy and corn are already hitting the state’s agriculture hard.  Some farmers say the short-term effect of the tariff battle will be harsh, but the long-term effect could be good for all trading partners.  If China doesn’t back away from its plan, India and most of Europe will likely pick up the slack.

Rapids Police Look For Armed Robbers

Wisconsin Rapids police are looking for two armed robbers who stuck up a Little Caesar’s Pizza restaurant Sunday morning.  An employee tells police two men walked in at about 11:15 A-M, with one of them showing a handgun and demanding money.  They ran away from the location with an undisclosed amount of cash.  Police say the description they received doesn’t give them much to go on.  The suspects had left by the time officers arrived.  There were no injuries reported.
