A few years ago, and even now-,

a Leonid not be grown. But it has been
iclearly demonstrated that it was not i
. -in the land but in the farmer, for
a- now you can travel in almost any di- I
( recticn and see tields of corn tho equal'
jof the West. Recently we drove out i
[to see a field on the farm of Mr. John
D. WinsteaJ, and we unhesitatingly
in1 say it is the finest we Have ever seen. 1
jo'In the field is twenty acres and Mr. i
j ,i Winstead says he expects to get 60 '
bushels to the acre, and we shall be
n" greatly surprised if he dce^not do i
Vi-v n bet'er than that. -
of' This field of 20-acres was in clover,
?] this Mr. Winstead plowed under, usjing
a tractor for motive power, and
i after turning under we tlf.nk he Baid
t>r' that he harrowed it with a cutaway
U-'narrow inree times, and planted on
27th, using $124 wcrth of fer-j
