som sum OF $1,000. or a net revenue OF
s51.I1 per acre on the land in clover.
Still another of the Meridian coun-
try farmers, Herbert Mersdorf, secur-
ed 105 bushels of clover seed from 20
acres of clover, which as a revenue foi'
this year on the 20 acres in clover,
amounted to s913.5O which equaled
an average revenue per acre on the 20

Mr.. Waggoner weighed 1923 head of
hogs into an 11-acre field of peas and
wheat and on Sept 10 he weighed
them out of this pasture. and through
the increased weight of the hogs real
lied n profit equivalent TO $3.50 per
acre for the pasturage, selling the
hogs at eight cents per pound.
Still further accentuating the profit
realized by Mr.. Waggoner Is the fact
that he had left at least one-third of
his pasturage. The hogs of Mr.. Wag-
goner were weighed bot. times by ii.
A. Ireland, government project advis-
or of the Boise Payette project From

farm, Mr.. Waggoner secured yield or
90 bushels per acre, strongly indicat-

present greatness and the proportions

try may be expected to assume.

in excess of S6120 per month and viii
