weather begins, 1T will continue and
all crops will push ahead with a
healthy growth, and with the prices

do we not have them? The answer "a
very simple. Because we do not

hear is 81 pay taxes, we have COM

Here is just tn point VIII re We
farmers are wrong. If We pay them,
let us do all we can to hslp N m
and cut the expenses down, so we
do not have to pay so much for road

cause we do not care, except feW
