The following is good advice from

gard to fall blowing should be needed.
Last spring for instance the farmers
in the upper Animas valley that fall
plowed, were able to get their grain
in before the rains and there wheat
and oats matured long before frost
Every farmer in this vicinity
should do all the fall blowing he
can this fall and plant at least five
acres of winter wheat. 1t will
greatly lessen the spring work, en-
able one to get the spring crops
in earlier, distribute the summers
work better and insure larger and
better yield. Make good seed bed
and harrow close behind the pillow
after seeding. Winter wheat will do
well if it is only well sprcuted in the
fall though it is best to get up good
even stand if possible. The narrowing
will help to do this" So.
