Show ' DRY FARMING. X i , - Hitf IflJ ' Kenarra , to the Front.,-, t Last Tuesday Wm. C. Reeves of Kanarra came into the office and brought with him samples of wheat that he has raised without water. lie said he had read several articles in the Record about arid farming and the success some were having in the raising of wheat without water and decided to bring a few samples to show the Cedar people that Ranarr.i was not behind her sister town. The samples Mr. Reeves brought were taken at random in his field and arc beauties. One sample of common Touse that is raised usually only with water will go about 20 bushels to the acre. A sample of Red Chaff was also brought in that Mr. Reeves sayis will easily go 25 bushels to the acre. It has been thought by a number of people in Cedar that this place was the only one in which vas to be found men who had faith in arid farming, but from the remarks' of Mr. Reeves, Kanana is away ahead of Cedar or any other town in Iron County. Not in the matter of pro-duc'ng pro-duc'ng more to the acre but the amount of land under cultivation. Kanarraitcs will go more extensively into ths busimess next year and the readers of the Record need not be surprised if the citizens of Kanarra lead them in arid farming by long odds lion County Record. n - |
