McRee produces profitable pea hay shipment from Vinson
Mr. O F McRee of Vinson reports a record pea hay yield this year totaling about two hundred tons from as many acres worth twenty dollars per ton. Two cars were shipped Tuesday, one to Dublin and one to Macon, consigned to the Orr Smith Grocery Company. The Macon car is the county’s first home raised hay shipment, and McRee plans to sell about one hundred tons while keeping the rest.
