It will be remembered that in 1911

severely from drought. The thorough
tillage necessary in 1910, to kill out
the quack grass, must have been SO
effective in conserving the moisture,
as to enable Mr.. Anderson's plot Of

1911, to produce this very satisfactory
yield of oats from moisture stored in
it,
This example would seem to be an
Illustration of what Minnesota holds
in store for any tiller of the soil who

fact that the dry land methods of

quite certain that here, where we
have normally a sufficient rainfall,

pected than in the semi-arid districts
