A clipping of a weekly series from "The Sun" newspaper called "Those Were The Days". The series was written by Jim Greenblat as he reminisces on the past of Swift Current.
This particular article is from 19 December 1969. It talks about "Summerfallow," a farming method that helps improve farming yield by not farming land one year to use two year's moisture in one crop. The article says that the method was noted when a farmer borrowed his horses to aid against the Riel rebellion, but didn't get them back in time to farm some of his land. That land then grew a good yield the next year, during a drought. Also mentioned in the article are John and Arthur Washington, and Art McCrie.
