AZ Bushels Wheat to Acre.

County Farm Demonstrators Remsburg
has learned of the excellent yield OF
wheat which was secured this summer by
]. Lemuel Keller, of Jefferson, it being
iorty-two bushels to the acre. Mr.. Keller
is dairyman, and while he did not have
out a very large acreage Of the grain,
that which he did put out he cultivated
according to the most approved methods.
He did not sow thick, using only about a
bushel OF wheat to the acre. This gave
more vitality. The stock was not pas
tured on the land, SO that the soil was
not tramped downed and injured in this
manner.
