J. Tom Key, who has recently vis- ited several counties of the south- west, thinks Dade has the finest wheat he ever saw. He thinks the fields he saw will average close to thirty bushels to the acre. The farm- ers there are fertilizing with bone- dust and use about 100 pounds of it tothe acre. They find that it pays wellfor wheat and many are of the opinion that it is a good investment forcorn.
