Sligo Farmers Follow Campbell Sys-
tenn With Success

TEN With Success
The little band Of farmers about
Sligo, who have been working their
farms under the supervision Of Prof.
H. w. Campbell the past season. are
still enthusiastic about the possibilities
of scientific farming according to the
Campbell system. And they have rea-
son to be enthusiastic; not alone be-
cause Of the success they have had with
their crops this year. but also because
Of the excellent condition of their
ground for next seasons crops.
Prof. Campbell passed thru Keota
Tuesday. returning from trip to Sligo.
and gave The News an outline of what
has been accomplished there this sum-
mer.
Mr.. C. L. Morgan has cut his wheat.
1t is expected to run above 20 bushels
to the acre, notwithstanding the
damage done it by the two-days wind
storm which removed the soil mulch in
early spring; and that Of two recent
hailstorms. Mr.. Morgan has IS acres,
Mr.. Stevens 10 acres, Mr.. Phillip rs
acres, and Mr.. Dreage 40 acres of sum-
mortified ground. and it is al in splen-
did condition. All have excellent gar
dsns that would do credit to Illinois,
and demonstrate the value Of frequent
cultivation.
Mr.. Dreage has made an especially
good showing this season. He has Is
acres Of corn Of IN early dent variety.
that il well cared and silked, and has
excellent color; and acres Of kidney
beans make such q fine showing that
Mr.. Campbell had them photographed.
Mr.. Dreage has also about an acre Of
alfalfa, drilled in rows 80 inches apart.
The alfalfa was cut three weeks ago,
and now it stands fully 20 inches high.
1t has done 30 we'll that large acreage
Of alfalfa will probably be planted in
the vicinity Of Sligo next year. Mr..
Campbell advises that alfalfa land be
protected BY mulch and kept free of
weeds until July. and that the seed be
then drilled thinly in rows far enough
apart to permit Of clean cultivation.
