appropriate heading for this article,
for Wade Drake is the man we refer
to, and he is a real farmer.
He is not in the woods-he has been
"out Of the woods" for long time
but people who visit his farm to see
how he managed to do so many won

study such object lessons, making
beaten paths through jungles, if neces-

Is it any wonder? There are tens

OF cotton, owing to the work of the
boll-weeyil-who will have poor crops
OF corn and hay, or none at all, owing
to many things-who find their lands
poorer than when crops were planted

Having all the facts before them. as
well as the tlOurishing fields of grain
and hay and cotton, of course they
marveled.
Ten years ago most of this farm
was CALLED and quilted waste-some
of the fields cut with such deep washes
that it was impossible to drive a
wagon across them.
Since that time Mr.. Drake has raised
two bales of cotton per acre on 1913
acres of this worn out" land! He
raises more wheat and oats per acre
than most farmers in that section
and has wheat and oats to sell each
year, as we'll as cotton. Alfalfa and
other legumeS are grown in prOper
rotation. He sells hay, and has green
crops to protect the soil in winter and
to turn over. In fact, green manuring,
with the liberal use of pulverized lime
stone and commercial fertilizers. has
built up his land to its present high
state of fertility. He has been lining
this land for sixteen years, and his
system of rotation has supplied the
humus which his soils required and
given him more than one money crop.
Mr.. Drake raised in 1921 the follow
ing number of bushels of grain per
acre: corn, 80; wheat, %; oats, 60;
rye 80 He produced 100 bales of
cotton on 100 acres last year; his
highest yield was two bales per acre.
Cotton on the Drake farm was plant.
ed this year on April 3 and April 9th.
The first planting is expected to yield
more than a bale to the acre; while
the later planting will not turn out so
well. There has been no difference in
cultivation and treatment, but it has
been demonstrated that early planting
is best where boll-weevils are at work.
The cotton on this farm was busted
