an item of interest to farmers ano
from his OVID experience finds 1t by
far the best way to shock corn. In
stead of standing corn shocks up
straight, he lays the first oundle
lengthways on the corn row riGge n
the next bundle across the first, and
so on up until the bundles head up TO
a point. This prevents freezing and
snow from filling the shock. Mr..
Warner followed the old method all

and found it by far the best.
