Especial - The Richmond Nirgintan.1
SMITHF'IEsLD, IA, Oct, IS.--Isle
of Wight county turned out repre-
sentative gathering of farmers today
to attend the institute conducted by
the experts from the State agricul-
tural department.
The meeting was held in Odd Fell
lows hall and was called to order
by j. r. Jordan one Of SInithneld s.
most prominent business men. Mr.
Jordan introduced Director of Insti-
tute ]. ]. Owen. who made a brief
address of welcome To the gathering
and introduced the speakers profes-
sor Lyman Carrier spoke first on seed
corn selection and its proper care
after selection as well as its cultlva-
ton. following this with a brief talk
on fertilization, Professor T. G. john
son, demonstrated the value Of crop
rotation and the combinations Of
various fertilizers.
Valuable Bulletin.
Professor johnson gave the farm
ers advance notes from an exceeding
~ valuable bulletin which he viii
soon put To press, which viii be a
complete treatise on the subject Of
fertilizers and crop rotation, and this
viii be sent from the Norfolk truck
experiment station to all who write
for it.
Professor A. f. Howard wound mp
the institute with binatt0n talk
on fertilization and daryins, making
the surprising demonstration that the
farmer who sold about four dollars
worth Of corn is stealing a dollar $
worth of fertility from his land which
he never pays while the farmers
who keep a dairy COW and returns
in ta o1,a ~ tysan tra is
the more prosperous Th@ farmer
can make TOO pounds of butter by
removing only one dollars worth OF
fertility from his farm
The farmers showed the intense in
terest they felt in the proceedings by
the cross fire of questions showered
upon the lecturers, all OF which were
satisfactorily and comprehensively
answered.
While Isle Of Wight Is one Of the
most prosperous counties in the State
agriculturally the farmers evinced an
earnest desire to learn to do even bet
ter farming If possible.
