A few weeks aeo we gave the HERALD
readers tho views OF ex-G0yeTnor Cooper
ON the prospects for successful farming
in eastern Colorado and. among other
facts given by him as n ground Tor his
faith IN the ultimate success of farming
m this part OF the sta,e,was the fact that
ou his iaim south OF Denyer bald or
hullosa barley had been raised that nv
oraged % bushels per acre without any
irrigation. The farmers Of Phillips coun-
ty, however, do not have TO 20 outside
the boundary of their own county to see
this showing not only equalled but dis
counted. john Olson OF the north west
ern part OF the county raised on his farm
last year 1900 bushels OF bald or bulless
ba'loy and lie informs us that IL averaged
80 bushels per acre. This barley In m
heavy as wheat and makes excellent feed.
We believe that it will prove fully RI
certain and profitable crop for the iarm-
ers Of this part Of the stale az corn, MIR.
Olson has great faith in this barley as a
successful crop for this part Of tho state
aod will put out large acreage this
year and mnny other iafmers OF the

IN Kansas last spring an experiment was
tried IN packing fall plowed soil with
Campboll's subsurface packer previous to
seeding, the packer being run over the
plowed ground to settle 1t. Tho plats
which were not pgckoi yielded at the
rate Of 2j.i9 bushels OF grain to the acre;
those packed once, 29.3I bushels; ana
those packed three times, 293i bushels
Hero ia gain OF nearly four bushels by
the uss of the packer. Tho packing Of

not packed yielded 2s2i bushels; those
packed three timer, s9.T bushels. The
