tating crops on the other 400.
Some of the results to date:
$20,000 from 100 acres of pota
toes; $12,000 from 100 acres of
barley; S3800 from an aero and
a half of turnips.
"It didn't take long to put In
tho seed," Yett said, "and the
most murvelous soil Imaginable

mentsomething like $40,000
will be returned In this first
year's crop."
