Jehovah Witnesses Hold International Assembly at New York
Delegates from many nations gathered in Yankee Stadium and the Polo Grounds in New York City for an eight day Jehovah’s Witnesses convention July 27 to August 3.

Farmers urged to cover grain boxes with tarpaulins to prevent weed spread and save losses, as tarps cost 35 to 45 dollars but guard against costly weed control.
