County tour a countywide success in agriculture
Florence Mills news reports a county tour led by County Agent L. D. Thrash to promote soil building with crimson and red clover, peas, and soybeans. About 60 men rode in 16 autos, stopping at farms from Gilkey to Ellenboro, with demonstrations by Cline, Tate, Quisenberry, Kimrey, and others. The day emphasized livestock, alfalfa, fertilizer tests, and the value of clover for soil, ending with a melon feast and dairy observations. The event will become annual, despite late-season travel and weather challenges.
