WHAT'S DONE ON ONE ACRE

The Sumter county farmer who
reaches out for more land knows,
doubtless, what he is doing and what
is best for his interests, yet few here
realize what one acre, properly titled,
will produce. At Orland, California,
Samuel @. Cheek farmed for twenty
seven years on only one acre of irri.
gated land. He supported wife, and
just before dying bought three other
acres and left to his wife $4,000 in bank
Il is claimed that Mr.. Cleek grew upon
his farm q greater variety of crops
than were produced from single
other acre in America. The remarka-
bic fact that stands out clearly in the
life of this man who lived in land
grabbing age is the complete success
achieved upon this farm by the aid of
irrigation water. In Japan an acre is
considered large farm, but IN this
Southern country we are prone to
value the land by leagues and sections
