SAYS HIS GRAIN
is PRETTY wEEDY

Joe Williamson from north OF Bur
lington, dropped down into our san.
ctum Tuesday. Joe has % acres OF
fine corn most of which stands to
his knees. He narrowed his corn
several times and thinks this helped
it. He also narrowed 20 acres OF his
wheat as an experiment but rain
came the next day and this did not
seem to have much effect on tn"
weeds. Joe says the Russian thistles
and tumbing mustard are quite bad In
some of his grain and believes this
will effect his crop considerably. He
thinks the best way to clean up foul
land is to grow corn.
Joe has been reading Campbell's
articles closely He has concluded that
while the plan might be all right. he
thinks it will cost the farmer more
for equipment and labor. He would
like to see Campbell come out in this
neck of the woods and farm a piece OF
land.
