Farmers who tried the Camp
bell system of soil culture in the
James river and Sheyenne river
valleys are loud in their declara..
tions in it's favor. The system is
simply packing the soil as it is
plowed. and then shallow cultiva-
ton of the surface. By packing
the soil the moisture is retained,
so that in the event of drouth
late in the season the crop is as
sured by the surplus moisture
stored earlier in the season.
Warden Boucher of the peniten-
tiary has been Investigating the
system, and it will be adopted on
the prison farm next year. Those
who have used the system say
that a good crop can be increased
fifty per cent. by this system,
and that a poor crop can be dou-
bled. -Wahpeton Globe.
