FIGURING THINGS OUT
*9iaZcdej&^“
Awhile back I was learning Sonny how to handle
a shotgun so he could figure out where Br er Rabhit
natchelly was going lo Ire on his next jump. Sonny
got the idea mighty quick for a hoy his age. Maybe
it s because he’s noticed how us farmers always tries
to do things the natchel way. For instance, it just
comes natchel to use Chilean soda to give our crops
a quick start and keep ’em growing strong and
healthy.
Us farmers has been using natchel soda for more
than a hundred years. Seems like just being natchel
makes it different from any other kind.
Maybe folks won't he aide to get all the soda they
want this season, but if we’re careful with what we
gel it may do.
