Winfield Courier: Several farmers
were talking in this Office Tuesday.
Their conversation drifted into the
relative effect md profit Of manure
on COwley county soil. One Who
lives near town had drawn out a
hundred loads during the summer.
A miliet patch which was partly
manured was cited The manur-
ed part yielded one ton per
acre more than the other. Every
instance spoken Of indicated that
manuring made the crop sure with
from twenty-five to thirty-five per
