John Westing brought some stalks OF
corn TO town last Saturday. that with
the ears on them do not look like fail.
ure Of the crop by good deal. We
took good look at his cornfield last
summer and when he talks of IS or so
bushels per acre on some part of it we
are ready TO think he knows what he is
talking about. His practice of subsoil-
ing his ground and then following it by
a commonsense cultivation is correct
without doubt. One minutes examin-
alton and comparison of his plan and
the common one knocks out any doubt
in the matter. When we saw him plow-
ing and at the same time looseniDg up
the soil in the bottom of the turrow,
making all told 3 stirring up of the
ground to the depth of eleven inches, we
could readily understand that the roots
of any crop would more readily reach
down and out through the soil 10 every
direction and consequently draw mois-
ture and nourishment from soil that
otherwise they could not reach. An ex.
animation of the grain grown on sub
soiled lard and upon that not subsoiled
will convince the most careless observer
of the men. of the subsoiler. The
threshing mat zine will also most sur
prisingly corrot rate the conclusions.
Mr.. Westiug's pan of flat cultivation of
corn, taking special care not to cut or
tear the roots. something nearly I'M
avoidable when the common style of
cultiyator is used, is simply good CON-
mon sense. There is is an old adage
that 1.-THE proof of the pudding is in the
eating" and there is certainly no gain
saying the fact the proof of theory or
method of cultivation is in the crops
that are raised. Mr.. Westing's theory
stands the test admirably. and the Hur-
ley & Westing cultivator and subsoiler
are two farming implements that are
that worthily challenge the attention
and consideration Of every farmer. By
their use the crops Of Grant orany other
county can be quite perceptibly increas.

thoughtful person knows what this
