The Rain Brings Joy.

People everywhere are rejoicing
over the coming Of the rains.
Central Texas has been drench-
ed and although the corn crop in

Some sections in Scurry county
have had only light rains, espec-
tally is this so Of the Plainview

Mr. Wilson frcs. out east of
town says he got fine rain and
his cottonand feed will hump
from now on and he has good
stand of every thing.
Farmers all say that the young
feed is just in the right stage for
rain and the older maize will suck
err out and make good. Scurry
county has not had so good crop
prospect in several years.

There is no question but that
Summer or early fall pIowing wiz
pay. Deep blowing will pay far
better at this time than shallow
work.
1--WE have learned by exper-
ience that our deep blowing must
be done as long before planting
time as possible to pillow deep
Just before planting time often
means filure for that season. Prac
tically all Of our crops require a
firm seed bed, therefore we must
plow early enough to give the
ground time to settle before plant
ing"
July and August planting is adj
visable. The question is asked
"Why is early blowing advisa-
bleqn This has several answers.
The question might be asked Why
do we pillow at alll 1--WE pillow to
kill weeds, conserve moisture, bet
ter the physical condition of the
soil, make plant food available,
give TO the plant roots larger area
to draw from, etc. y
by discing small grain ground
as soon as possible after harvest
the moisture can be saved so that
the blowing can be done at any
desired time thereafter
"July and August, deep plow-
ing will do more to insure crops
for us than any other method or
time of tilling. 1t is at this time
of the year that plant food is man
ufactured faster than any other
time. This is especially true of soil
that is well worked and kept in

Movements of stocks through the morn

the early trading, hut before noon this
largely disappeared and some brisk ad-
vances were scored. Sentiment was ar
fected by the circulation of reports con-
firming the likelihood of further dissolu-
ton suits against corporations. American
Smelling was most affected by these re-
ports and was conspicuously weak. Trad
