Basin Reports
Good Crops

Everybody has been busy the past
week hauling dry farm grain. John
H. Fairchild topped the market this
season with 5000 sacked. His crop
averaged about IS bushels of dry
farm grain. The Turkey Red is of A
No / quality. Mr.. Fairchild advises
everybody to get back on the dry
farms and get busy. He says that
failure on dry farms Is not the fault
OF the farms, but is due to lack of
knowledge as to just the right time
to pillow and plant He states that
those who know thta haven't had
single failure in twenty years. What
one can do. others can do If they
follow the same program. The pre-
scription is simply to get ready and
go at it the right time in the spring;
pillow rapidly from about the middle
of April to the tenth of June; har-
row and level in July; then see to
Il that you plant in August; and the
good lord will do the rest.
