AN OBJECT LESSON
Old Worn-Out Lands Brought to
Productive Perfection in
Few Years.
DEMONSTRATION IS GOOD
Some Facts Gathered on Model
Farm Near Burkeville in
Nottoway County.
ny FRANk S. woopsoN.

Burkeville. Va, June ll.-As set
forth in another article. came to this
ancient Nottoway county town to learn
from first hands something of the
Farmers Cooperative Demonstra>
ton Work." about which I had heard
so much and yet knew SO little. In
this respect was in the same boat az
nine-tenths Of the other people in Vir-
ginia.
To obtain this information I had
to visit the home and farm of Thomas
Q. Sandy, the State agent of the Farm
ers' Demonstration Work. In another
part of this paper l have told all about
it, and although it requires three col
umns TO hold the story, it may be said
that Mr.. sandy has simply told his
.students" how to do the things that
he did on his worn-out farm, and SO 1t
is quite likely that the farmer readers
OF The Times ?Dispatch, and others as
we'll, would like to know something
about this Sandy farm and the man
who runs 1t.
How He Became n Farmer.
Eighteen years or more ago Thomas
O. Sandy, who was a travelling sales
man. became interested in farm OF
something near 800 acres of WORKOUT
Nottoway county land. He was a very
successful drummer and was doing
we'll on the road, and SO he only made
the place his home or stopping place
between commercial tours. following,
SO far as farming was concerned, the
destructive system that had been In
vogue on the once splendid old Miller
Farm ever since the war, system of
renting out the land in sections to
tenants. White and colored, for a
fourth of the crop.
Everybody knows about the South
side Virginia renter and how land is
ruined under his tillage. Under this
system the lands on this farm went
from bad to worse and the fourth OF
the crop" brought in very little as
rent
Mr.. Sandy was reared on a West
moreland farm, and had the rudiment-
al ideas that are born into the noggin
of every Virginia farmers boy, and
then he had way of studying out
things for himself About twelve
years ago, maybe little more, he con-
Guided to wind up his business as
commercial tourist and take active
charge OF the Miller Farm, having con-
ceived the idea that he could redeem Y
and make it money producer
He WAS Not Prophet.
The probability Is that MI Sandy
never dreamed that he would or could
become an agricultural leader and al
