I. G. Avery, county agriculturist,
when Interviewed un the subject

tent the wheat stunted und weak

Some Itesecuing.
The effect of tho injury to the
crops will necessitate spring re-
H.M'.lhiir In many instances. This
will work some hardship on the
farmers in some cuses because of
the high price of Beed wheut at the
