Paul Pioneer, his expeirence with plow-

in
a field for wheat 0 e inch deeper every year. The first y, ar hplowed the
-
land. four inches deep and' harvested
seven bushels of wheat to the acre.
• The next seasen he pls wed the land one
inch deeper •and took oiff twenty bushels
per acre. Continuing to plow one inch
• deeper the nextyear, he harvested thirty-
one and a half bushels.,
He says,iii con-
clusion: "Last fall I did not go down
for the extra inch. I feared if I kept on
t until . I got dOwn 15 !or 20 inches the
- straw would grow 18 or 20 feet high, and
thatwoial stand the storms of Minim sota ;
• but if we want long ;straw and heavy
wheat we must plow : deep. One inch

• rule is followed strictly, our farms will
be in good condition 100 years to come."
