START NOW!
Have you thought about how
much acreage to devote to winter
cover crop* for next year? Right
now is the time to start thinking
about it If seed is needed, they j
need to be secured early. Also 1
best result* will be obtained if a
gixzd job of seeding i- done Then,
too, every extra acre planted in
cover crops will be doing that
much more for the land through
increasing and holding the fertil
ity.

That is fairer far than day.
Thus precious one from us has
gone,
Her sweet life lingers near,
Her love and laughter fills ihe

She was so good and dear.
We cannot question God’s great
will
For we know that He knows best,
He gave Jeanette, He needed her
to live among the blest.
We bow our heads, and humbly
pray,
“Thy will, Oh God be done,”
And may we meel her some sweet
day
When life on earth is done.
