bert says that he is going to plant
about bushel of corn next spring, of
the kind raised in South Dakota and
southern Minnesota. His idea is that
owing to the soft corn this fall there
is bound to be shortage of feed next
summer, and this early variety of corn
will be denied along in August and
about the middel of that month he can

in the field after the last blowing, and
believes this will give him some good
hog feed next year from along in
