HAS GREAT RECORD
AS A CORN GROWER
(Continued from front page)
and on taking an exhibit to
the fair I won a $5 gold watch
and a few cash prizes.
“The third year being a very
dry year, my acre produced
only 57 1-2 bushels, but this
gave me a free trip to the an
nual meeting at Little Rock,
which I enjoyed immensely.
My yield being small did not
discourage me, for I knew
that it had been an unusually
bad year, so 1 set my aim on
100 bushels for the coming
year. I wa3 also in the Peanut
Club this year, making a very
good yield off my acre.
“On the fourth year my
yield was 117 2-3 bushels,
which won me the state prize
which was the $150 scholar
ship offered by the Arkansas’
State Banker’s Association to
one of the agricultural schools,
which 1 gladly accepted and us
ed at the Jonesboro school.
“Being encouraged by my
preceding prizes I concluded
to try again in the fifth year.

bushels, winning a ton of high
grade fertilizer offered by the
Union Seed and Fertilizer
Company of New Orleans and
a few cash prizes. I was also
in three other clubs this year,
Potato, Cotton and Pig. I
made 18 bushels on my one
eighth acre of Irish potatoes,
grew 1,500 pounds of seed
cotton on my acre and raised
a pure-bred pig, which gained
219 pounds in 158 days or
nearly 1 1-2 pounds gain per
day at a cost of 4 1-2 cents
per pound. These brought me
several cash prizes.
“The sixth year, 1918, my
acre produced 106 1-2 bushels
which I have just been in
formed, has won for me the
second time the state prize in
the Corn Club which is the
$100 scholarship offered by
the Arkansas Bankers’ Asso
ciation. Of course I gladly
accept it and will use it. I al
so belonged to the the Potato
Club this year, making a yield
of 27 bushels on my one-eighth
acre. I won several cash
prizes this year, first, on my
exhibit of both corn and pota
toes. This year will be my
last year in the club work, as
I will be beyond club age, but
I intend to stay with it to the
end.’’
