hilltop plateau whei'e there is only a few inches of surface soil John plows only six inches deep "It would bring the dead soil that would not produce up if I plowed deeper" he explained Going back to his hillside and ris methods: he found spot1 where the soil was thin and unproductive Even weeds would not grow on them Hen is where he used his barnyard manure He carefully kept this to the barren spots applying manure year after year until now he has what he calls a "balanced field" If there is any difference the once barren spots will produce more than the more fertile spots when he started he claims John nas twenty-nine acres of hi side cotton this year and sold sixteen acres to the government Ile has 175 loads of hay in the barn He never bales He cuts it as green as it will stand and stacks it in the barn It settles as it cures the weight of the green hay packing that under it as it settles by another cutting it is down and ready for more on top "This saves the bailing expense and the wire and gives me a better grade of bay" explained John "And I can get Just as much hay in the same space in the year" he added Barn Pays Dividends John's barn cost him about $2000 when he built it He contends that It has paid for itself over again In the crops saved through having ample overhead protection anytime 01 never lost any hay to amount to anything by rain" he explained "As soon as it is cut I haul it in and don't have to worry a bout losing I any while it is down in the field" When John bought the hill farm the improvements were likc the cuck leburs mostly neglected Me set about rebuilding with the materials he had at hand in a small way and then built the barn and the home A cement undercellar for a potato storate concrete porch acetylene lighting system and other improvements followed His fences and lanes to and between them he considers one ol his best investments He has lane: that will take his stock into any field or pasture as he desires He has forty budded paper snell pecan trees and a number of native trees are bearing this year He started bud ding before much was known about this and lost a number of trees beforo he learned the proper method His first effort was with fifty trees He lost twenty of them but the other thirty are bearing now Planted Too lose His orchard is another example of industzy and error too John had an acre and a half be' tween his house and the road that was so deeply washed he did not know where to start to build it up He used everything he could find to fill it plowed and leveled until he brought It up to an even Then he planted fruit trees They were too close together "to support the wood and bear too" he explained Now he is thinning them out although he has had some fruit all along since the trees started bear trig Another test John made was with wide and narrow row plantings of corn In the wide rows with pelts plantx1 in the row his yield was five bushels more to the acre than where planted in narrow rows and the wide row crop stands drought periods best he found Mr Birdwell was born in Lawrence county Missouri and came to Davis with his parents when eight years I old The family spent five years near Davis and two years at Bebee before coming to Pauls Valley They found this a most unhealthy place at that time Dr Branum wno was the physician here at that time was busy always But one hundrel bushels of corn was the expected crop in those days so the family stayed John paid 131anton $50110 rent on the Blanton bottom farm in five years It was during this time that 11 he paid his brother 'rank (Buck) 1 Birdwell $1500 for twelve months work Pays Iligh Wages This was in 1919 one of the biggest cotton years ever known when the farmer bit the highest production and I the highest
