Chit chat notes the State Fair underway with praise for livestock displays including horses cattle hogs sheep and poultry. Vendors report rising feed costs softening prices and a new alfalfa meal shipment offered at bargain rates while suppliers promote Big Stinky fly traps to combat barnflies.
Seed Crops Large and Clover Seed Prices Down
Our timothy seed crop was large and from all indications the clover seed crop will be just as big. Various prices have been offered but one thing is certain the price is lower than last year. If you have clover seed to clean we will be glad to do the job for you. The fellow with amnesia doesn't know where he s going.
