Kimble County Farmers Urged To Sign Up Now

Signing a worksheet does not bind compliance but guards participation eligibility and requires proper practices for benefits. Adolph Probst, Watkins Products dealer for Menard and Kimble counties, announced plans to push goat dip and other Watkins products with routes in both counties.
