Early this spring the fire dept was doing a CRP burn on my neighbor's land, burning a filter strip along a creek, a half mile long by maybe 90 feet wide. It was evening so I drove out there to have a chat with them. They were sitting where the fire needed to be stopped at the end of the strip but it was still 1/4 mile away and burning slow. We were chatting away at about dark and I noticed the glow seemed to be out in the corn stalks instead of in the CRP. I casually mentioned it to the chief and he told me it's still in the CRP, that the farmer had made a pass along the CRP with a disk. I told him in the 61 years I've lived here I've never seen the creek THERE, where the glow was. The creek goes the OTHER WAY, not THAT way.
To make a long story short, I ran home, hooked up the disk and put out the corn field fire for them. Jim
