A thoughtful article In n recent issue
of n leading farm paper points out the
fact that the value Of many OF the ex.
periments conducted by state agricul
tural experiment stations Is greatly
lessened because so many OF the tests
are carried out on very limited scale
and under conditions which Il would
be impossible for the average farmer
to duplicate because Of lack of help
and time. In measure this criticism
Is well founded In that experiments
may be conducted on a small scale
with remarkable results which would
not produce any such results were
they carried out extensively with the
amount of land which the average
farmer undertakes. At the same time
1t is well to take into account the fact
that one OF the truths which the ex.
pertinent stations are trying to drive
home to the minds OF the tillers of
the soil is that they are working
from two to three times as much
land as they can handle to advantage
and that II an amount were kept un-
der cultivation which could be given
the attention that 1t ought to receive
some Of these same invaluable inten-
siye expcriments--so viewed by some
would be considered Of much more
practical nature than now. Perhaps
me experimenters should increase by
threefold the land which they de-
vote to grain raising tests. while 1t is
Just as plain that the farmer should in
many cases decrease bis plow land by
the same threefold ratio to handle 1t In
an effective and satisfactory manner.

which II would be well worth while

We refer to that TO be found In an In
crease In the value of farm lands In
the sections referred to, a correspond

coupled wlth he fact Of continually
decreasing soil fertility. Those who

farms of the class referred to will

wise course TO follow would seem TO
lie along the line Of reformation OF
agricultural methods, which is the only
way out Of the difficulty consistent
with financial consideration and patri.
otic regard for the dignity of agricui-
