In N Central Iowa there are neighboring towns Fertile and Manley.  

Make up your own headlines from there.

Slow day in the tractor business, huh.

That reminds me of a story I heard on NPR the other day. It seems the editor
of the local small town paper that served Normal and Oblong IL just loved to
write headlines like "Oblong Woman Marries Normal Man". 
You just can't make stuff like that up.
