- FARMING METHODS
- Tells the story of Mr. Brooks showing Bert Tiller how fertilizing can increase productivity. Brooks sowed sweet clover, and when Bert looked it over, it was higher than the wheat. Brooks said that next year, though, the corn would be good. Bert became a convert to limestone. He even bought a whole train load, 30 cars full, and gave it to his friends in Virginia, Illinois.
