Farmers Here
Saturday brought a number of
planters here to see the demonstra

came hoping to arouse an addition
al interest in the production of
live stock and poultry in this sec

so large as it should have been.
Without doubt our citizens are
awakening to the possibilities of
this soil and climate to produce
