High Grade Wheat Grown At Highwood
The first load of wheat marketed in Highwood came from F. F. Damson's farm nine miles from town on North Beach. The No 1 grade, 62 pounds to the bushel, is being threshed by a combine. Damson expects about 700 acres harvested with yields of 20 to 25 bushels per acre and optimism grows for the district's average. Four aviation fields are named Mitchel, Lufbery, Damn and Chapman in honor of fallen American aviators.
