VICTORY FOR MODERN FARMING.
scientific agriculture, aided 10y the
newspaper publicity, won big vic
tory in Nebraska this year when the
farmers OF the state, following the
suggestion OF the Omaha Commercial
club, gave careful attention to their

seed, was tested before planted and
a failure was averted.

methods of farming.
