Dear Friend:
I hope
this finds you and yonrs all well
and everything goingsatisfactory
with you. I hear and read bad re
ports on crop condit'ons in Mor
row County, 1 am sorry de say
but hope that they will not Urn
out to be as unfavorable as re
ports make thm out at present.
However there is a general sho.t
age o water every where this year
Things have been going along
nnltii nnt.l it'll k ma ainoa fnm I
ing here but rould be detter and
I think they will be after a little
while and lam better acquainted
The Government will spend
in the ueigiiborhood of 20 to 25
millions on reclamation projects
in this part of the country and
then follows the settlement of
tracts afterward.
With kind regards to you and
all the rest of lone, I remain as
ever.
Very truly yours
Clyde R. Walker
WHY
Summerfallow
If yqu want to grow we6ds?
You can grow weeds without plow
ing, but if you wish to raise wheat on
your plowing you must keep the weeds
down. THE CHENEY ROTARY
ROD WEEDER has stood the test
a '"of time arid is leading all others in
sales and satisfied owners.
WHY TRY AN EXPERIMENT?
If you need a weeder, see the new
Rotary Rod Wizard.
