WHEAT GROWERS CoSvENrIoS.-A adjourned
meeting of Farmers and other citizens was
held at the Court House on Tuesday, the 18th
Inst. There was general discussion on the
subject OF wheat growing. Many interesting
facts were stated OF great interest to the farm
ers. 1t was the opinion OF many that to be
successful in wheat culture we must import from |
the north seed wheat every two or three years. |
The result of the meeting is that many Of our
farmers are sending to Wisconsin for seed |
wheat. We understand that about 500 was
handed to the agent Mr. Magnify, and those who
cannot raise funds will sow the best seed to be
had in our county. Our citizens are wide awake
to the great interests at stake in the wheat
crop. 1t is the only crop that we can depend
upon to bring money into our county next fall.
Corn is said to be pork, and pork money, but
we oil know that there are few hogs and little
to feed them. The wheat crop then is our main
reliance, and We are rejoiced to learn that our
farmers are determined not to fail in planting,
trusting that God will give the harvest. Anoth-
er result of the convention was the appointment
of numistoa-Maaara n. |
vid Switzer and Charles Davd-to call meet
ing of the farmers for the purpose of organ
ize Farmers Club, the object of which ia to
hold monthly meetings to discuss all subjects of
interest to the farmer.-[Fairfeld Ledger.
