Ten years ago Professor Cyril G Hopkins, the soil chemist «ml expert of tho lillmds Agricultural college, set about to And the poorest «nd most run down farm In twenty eountlea In the southern part of Ills state, where a ma­ jority of the fanners had been skin­ ning their land for years. He paid $20 fs-r acre for a 300 acre farm dubbed "Poorland Farm," which *»»« known for counties around as the |«oorent and most run down agricultural proposition In the state Those who knew the farm laughed In their sleeves when Profes sor llopktns tiought it. while the owner thought he had allp|>ed a good one over on th«- “lead pencil*’ farmer. The first thing the new proprietor did was to make a chemical analysis of the »oil from the different fields. He found It «adly deficient In phosphorus and more or less sour He divided the farm into six fields of forty acres each and adopted a six year rotation of corn, oats and cowfieas, wheat and thr«*e years of m«*ndow and pasture In tlm othy and clover. The soil was plowed deeply and carefully and all available «traw and manure returned to the land. The past seaaon the poorest tract of the entire farm yielded 1.320 bushel“ of wheat, or an average of nearly thir­ ty-five busheia per acre. The treat­ ment which waa given this and the >ther forties was one ton of ground rock phosphate per acre applied the two year» when the tract waa In corn, while during the years of 1904 and 1906 two tons of limestone were applied to each acre, while on the tract in question two tons more of limestone |>er acre were applied In 1912 Just tie fore the land was plowed for wheat. The coat of two tous of limestone waa 12 25 delivered at the railroad sta­ tion. the raw rock phosphate cost on the average ««(.75 per ton. while the cost of hntiling each ton of material to the farm was M cents This made the average annual cost of phosphate and limestone «1.75 per acre. To determine even more definitely the effect of the application of the mil. -rals to the land a three acre strip along one side of this forty was given the same manure and rotation as the forty, but to one half of It no phosphate was applied and no llme»tone until the fall of 1912. One ami one half acre» with farm ma­ nure alone produced eleven and one- half bushels of wheat per acre. A similar tract that had received farm manure and one application of ground limestone yielded fifteen bushels per acre, while thirty-six acre« of land that had been given the »nine manure ns the smaller tracts and two applica­ tions of ground limestone nnd two ap­ plications of finely ground rock phos­ phate produced thirty-five nnd one half bushels per acre. It is Professor Hopkins' Judgment in view of his own exi«erlments that all that is required to restore a run down farm is lime t" sweeten It. rock phosphate to restore the supply of phosphorus exhausted, the growing of clover nnd alfalfa and the conservation of all straw nnd ma nure produced on the place. Owners of run down farms might with profit make careful note of the methods used In the transformation of this farm.
