tural methods. The figures show ttat
Germany has increased the yield OF
her staple cereal crops IN this period
AN average of 1875 bushels IN acre,
while the gain In the United states
in the same crops has bon only IS
bushels an acre. The better results
achieved in Germany are attributed by
the most eminent authorities there al
most entirely TO the great spread OF su-
gar beet culture in rotation with these
cereal crops which has been encouraged
Systematically by the German govern
meut. III Americans would follow the
lead OF Germany and grow sugar beets
