A LONG WAY FROM THE TOBACCO SHED
These were some of the better looking tobacco plants
seen this week in the Lititz area, the others were so
dried up they wouldn’t even show up in the photo
graph. These plants, put out two weeks ago, had some
green growth but were not up to par. The farmer
felt they’d make it though if they got a good rain in
the coming week. Looks like late tobacco this year.

GOOD STRAW ON THE BARLEY THIS YEAR too good! This lodged
barley is a common sight around Lancaster County since that heavy wind and
rain that passed through the area three or four weeks ago. The farmer who owns
this field said he had a good crop, both grain and straw, and he thought the
combine would pick up most of the gram, but added that another year he doubt
ed he would fertilize as heavily. L. F. Photo

out.
, Patton and associates be
rlieVff'- the new dry whole milk
will appeal to both the con
sumer and the dairy farmer.
Y Dry whole milk presently
available is not widely accept

skim milk has a
large market in this country.
