Geist drove to the country and exam
ined a number of fields both corn and
cotton. He said coi'n was now in good

would help cotton or course to have
more moisture bat still a good crop
could be expected without it.

corn tod thick. It was much better
and safer to have it thinner less
moisture thus being required to keep
the crop growing
