To DEMONSTRATE
DRAINAGE VALUE
Franklin County Farmers to
Carry on Experiments for
Next Four Years.

One Of the most interesting and
important drainage system demon
STATIONS being started is on the
farm OF William THE, a progress
sive farmer Of Franklin county Ind.
who is cooperating with the Rural
Engineering department OF Purdue
university and County Agent G. l..
Reed Within a short time Mr..
THE will tile % acres on his farm.
In one field OF 10 acres. five acres
will be drained and the other five
will be left undrained as a check on
the demonstration. Records OF the
crops produced on this land will be
kept for the next four years in an
effort 10 demonstrate TO the farmers
OF that section OF the state the
profit in properly draining their
land.
The soil on this farm is the char
acteristic white slash" or "craw-
FISH" soil Of southern Indiana and
because OF its fine texture is very
hard 10 drain. In dry years this
ground grows fair wheat. but II is
almost impossible TO produce a crop
Of clover or corn on il because OF
the fact that the ground is too wet
in the spring 10 permit proper till
age. During dry weather the soil
bakes and any crop which is grow
ing on it burns up because of the
shallow roofing.
