As I hope most of you know by now, my first, desire in helping Hie farmers is to be as practical and serviceable as possible, and only advocate practices that are known to be profitable under our conditions. A hundred farmers have told me that I have helped them. Thanks. I shall try harder to help you more. I do so much want to do so, and wish to remind the farmers all my time belongs to you and your interests 1 and want every farmer to feel free to call on me when you need me.
