EXPERIMENTAL FARM
NEAR sTAuNTON
Objects end Purposes of Those
Managing 1t.

Mr.. Lyman E. Carrier who has
been in STAUNTON4 for a few days
doing work in connection with the
State Experimental Fam on the New
Hope road near STAUNTON left for
his home at Blacksburg yesterday.
Mr.. Carrier occupies the chair of
Agronomy at the Virginia Polytech-
mic Institute at Blacksburg, and he
thus has to do with agriculture al
most entirely The session at Blacks
burg is just closing, which hurried
Mr.. Carrier home, but he will return
here in short time and go more ac-
lively into the work for which the
farm was bought. Mr.. w. W. Sproul
whose interest in experimental farm
ing is we'll known, was instrumental
not only in getting the agricultural
department of the state to purchase
this farm, but to get it to purchase
any farm. When he had obtained
consent to buy farm, naturally 'Au
gusta was selected by him as the 10.
cation for it. The farm, bought, those
in charge think, presents as many ad
vantages as any that could have been
selected not only on account Of posi-
tion but on account of climate and
soil. The farm is being laid off. into
squares of one fourth, one half and one
acre lots, and experiments to demons
trate the use of fertilizers will be
numerous and it is to be hoped profit
able. Then pure seeds will be raised.
Pure corn will be grown there in or
der to improve the seed corn of this
section particularly. To those who
do not know what is meant by pure
corn, we desire, to say that Professor
Carrier says it is corn that has been
Kept free from common or hybrid corn
Corn growers find that pollen can
be carried for long distance, and
hat inferior corn will mix with fine
grades at long. distances. One of the
hings to be done here next season
will be to raise pure corn,
Is well as other pure seeds, SO that
the farmers OF the state may get the
'est. The farm was bought rather
ate to do much this season. The
aost of the land was in crop when
so that another season
nust pass before full experiments can
e made. The growing of Alfalfa will
g demonstrated, and the crops which
'ontain the greatest number of elem
nts which permanently enrich .
round, will be experimental with.
1r. Carrier has advertised for a
ompetent farmer and our farmers
7ill do well to read that advertise
lent now appearing in the DIS
PATCH. The farm needs some re-
airs in the shape of fencing etc., but
4 short time this will be done.
'ur people will do we'll to bear in
lind what is being done there, and
s the season advances visit the farm
nd see fer themselves.
