Also last year about 1100,000

Increase Cover Crops -"The
fact that 9000 acres of
cover crop were planted during
the last year in this county alone
is immeasurable in sb far as di
rect results to orchards 'in the
county is concerned.. This is the
largest number of acres of cover
crop planted before In one year
in Polk county. The seeding of
4000 acres of red (lover and the
increase of alfalfa acreage to

the many other soil building
practices will be reflected in im
