An Experimental Farm,

/
The Kansas City Southern Rail
way has established al Noble, La. +,
an experimental farm of some range
and proportions for the PURPOSE of
demonstrating to farmers that fruits
and vegetables can be grown in that
section with good profits to the
farmers. This proposition Is one
of the Kansas City Southern
Freight Department schemes, and
is in the hands of A. V. Swaty, q
practical man IN this character of
undertaking. The officials of the
road have come To- realize that land
III Louisiana is the right sort to
grow certain vegetable and fruit
crops to hit the markets of the
West in seasons when there is a
dearth of market stuff of this char
acter.
The farming scheme is really
not an experimental one at Noble,
La. 1t happens that Noble is situ.
ated on the line Of the Kansas City
Southern, and there being thirty
shipping points between Noble and
Kansas City, the design Is quite as
much to make business in the ship
ping line for the Railway Company
as to put the farmers in the way of
locating. The Company wishes to
induce settlement of the land BY
agriculturalists who will plant sum.
mer apples, peaches, plums, straw.
berries, cantaloupes, melons, pota.
toes. onions, cabbage, spinach, va
rious root crops, and handle poultry
and eggs. L. is the desire to have
the farmers keep close together in
communities 50 that they may work
TO the purpose Of bulking their
marketables, make carload ship
ments and get the advantage Of the
rates that could be offered for car
lots.
Working IN conjunction with
the farmers, the railroad contem
plates, and in fact IS actually max.
ing shipping points for the farmers.
The experiments thus far with
farming have demonstrated that the
fruits and vegetables ''stani up''
better than in other localities, and
hence the selection of Louislana
for the experimental farm, as it is
called, and it Is hoped that the en-.
terprlse will induce the occupation
of land right along down the line
in Louisiana.

prepared from reliable. conserva.
