 WILLIAMSON METHOD

w H. Seymour, who has been pro- noting the Williamson method Of corn growing in this State and who aas been keeping in close touch with those who have tested the method this year. furnished The Advertiser with the fol- lowing information pertaining to the yields of W. C. H. Yam, and VIII c. Vann, winners of the states nrst and boys, respectively. They used the Williamson method.
 w, c. H. Vann planted one acre hard clay upland on March 13, and left stalks eight inches in drill rows six feet He used HOO pounds kanit, $50 pounds Is per cent acid phosphate. 5s0 pounds cotton seed meal. The Atalks grew from seven to seven and one-half feet high. The corn cost about 35 cents per
 After the old method the land would have produced about twenty Dushels, the stalks would have grown ten feet high and the9cor would have cost eo
 The "stunting' period was twenty three days.
 Yam writes of Method.
 Mir. Vann, in letter to Mir. Seymour, refers to the method as follows:
 T am fully convinced that 1t is by far the best method, or plan, of which I am aware. It produces more corn and at q less cost than any other method with which am familiar I regard the stunting feature as be- ing very essential, believing that in my case if 1t had been omitted I would have made much more stalk and con- siderahly less corn. From my own ex: perience, and from the experience of others, with whom drought prevailed and the yield from both of which so far exceeded the old method. would not hesitate to recommend the William son method to any one desiring more corn at less cost. :"
 W. e Yam planted gray sandy land with clay sub-soii. and used I,60G hounds Williamson's formula and 30e bounds nitrate of soda. The stalks grew seven and half rect nigh and His corn cost i1im 32 cents.
