art centers of America, according to

feller by the name Of Soeysmith who
put considerable originality into tilling

of corn 63,7 miles long. Instead of
plowing in the usual manner he start
ed in the middle of the field and cir
cled round and round till he finally
came out at one side. And at that, he
