Dell Coleson. whose ranch is up in
the hills a mile to the east of Roy.
early in June planted part OF a field
10 corn and reports that il now stands
knee high. The part of the field planted
later shows a cOrrespOndingly lesser

the progress of the crop is being oh
served with q great deal OF interest.

David Vance OF Landing was in town
last Friday. appearing before the local
exemption board to take physical ex-
animation. He is in the draft and will
come under the August call. Mr.. Vance
has a homestead in the hills east Of
Landing and is preparing to make final
proof on hts entry. Last spring he
seeded ten acres to sweet clover, for
forage. The seed was broadcasted and
has made an excellent growth without
receiving any cultivation whatever.
Mr.. Vance is Of the opinion that if
sweet clover Is drilled in rows wide
enough to permit Of cultivation there

exceedingly well in the foothills out
Landing way. with a normal rainfall.
