The 814^th Meeting of the Enterprise Club Met with T.L. Jackson on Sat. Oct. 14^th 1933. On our walk we found our host had sown rye and grass seed in half of his corn field and from the good growth at this time will have abundant pasture next spring. The other half has just been seeded to fall oats. The corn house hadwith over sixtyseventy barrels corn in it next drew our attention. This was the yield from the half of the field not put in the silo and there was very little damaged corn although the August Storm damaged had flattened the field. Three fine work horses of as many colors and four fat black hogs in one pasture and the fine milking herd in another were next inspected just Two setter pups were the last exibition before we went in side and did more than inspect the feast Mrs Jackson provided as her part of the entertainment.
