Three Crops a Year.
!. 1t was on the twentieth of January,
1913, that Cummins & Co. decided to
set aside eighty acres for a demon
stration farm. On that date they be-
gan burning the stumps, clearing
away the debris and building the
fences. Then they began planting
crops.
To the native South Mississippian
who has not seen it for himself his
tory of the various crops cultivated
within the past year on that land
would sound more like fiction than
fact. Take the little plot OF ground
about an acre and a quarter-just
to the rear of the barn. AS soon as
this had been cleared 1t was planted
in Irish potatoes. 1t yielded exactly
1862 bushels of potatoes. On June 4th,
after the potatoes had been dug, 1t
was planted in corn and the yield
from this crop was fifty-one bushels.
The corn having been gathered, 1t was
