A drive over the valley this week
is very much worth while Just to..1
sue the big crop of alfalfa being
cut, dried and put away. The first
cutting for this season is unusually
heavy and the weather so far has
. been Ideal for haymaking. One of
the most interesting fields In the
valley last week was that on the
S. L. Brooks farm north of lmbler.
There. Hugh Huron had IGO acres
In alfalfa which was about the
finest growth to be seen anywhere,
h'rlday to Sunday the alfalfa was
cut, the last two days nine teams
having been at work, six mowers
and 3 rakes. In addition there
was a group of boys working on
the Hhocks. The hay was all down
by Sunday evening with the excep
tion of two small strips of the
Grimm which Mr. Huron was sav
ing for seed. It was estimated that
the crop would make 2 VSt to 3 tons
of hay to the acre, so It is not hard
to figure how much would be
realized from this 160 acre tract.
M r. H u ron has been one of the
successful dealers In Grimm certi
fied seed and has always found a
good market for all he had to dis
pose of,
