Farm Development.

Hon. N. l. Mann, superintendent
of the experiment station at Gilman,
ILL.,, and one of the editors of the
Prairie Farmer, was here at the
courthouse last Monday to address
the farmers of Obion County on the
subject of farm development. The
speaker covered the ground hereto
fore discussed by other we'll informed
men from Tennessee and other States
on the subject with many interesting
and important additions.
1t is fact that many of the aban-
doned farms of this and other coun-
tries of America and Europe have
been treated and restored to very
profitable farming thru the efforts of
such men as Mr.. Mann, and the
methods, heretofore known as scien-
tific farming, have become more or
less practically useful in many por-
lions of the country and are receiv-
ing more attention every day. 1t is
shown beyond doubt that the con-
tinued use of land for single crop,
such as corn and wheat, will eventu-
ally impoverish the soil, and that
chemical properties in the soil which
produced the grain have been taken
up and must be restored.
This was discussed by Mr. Mann,
who has been making careful and
thoro tests of the soil properties and
their use in practical farming. Peo-
pie who formerly ignored the subject
and others who were skeptical have
become convinced of the fact, as
they are demonstrated not only at
the experiment stations, but on a
large number of farms every where,
and as time goes by they are taking
more kindly to these helpful discus
sions with a view of putting their
farms on an improved b.,sis.
