We like to see our farmers
reaching out after what they be-
lieve to be good in the crop line;
but so far as concerns wheat as
an every year crop the expert
ence of the country in the last
seven years is not favorable. A
good wheat crop as II rule may
be counted on about once in five
years. 1t is possible that by
the every. other year method
small grain might pay, and we
believe it would be good thing
if some one in the county were
to make a test of the mstter.

ordered.
This for your information in
