We are glad to note that Mr. K. R. Sankaranarayana Iyer an ex-student of the College and Manager Pudukota State Farm, is doing good work. On his advice one Mr. P. M. Danappa Pillai of the State sowed 20 M. M. of paddy against the usual 50 or 60 M. M. in one nadugai of nursery. The seedlings he trans- planted singly in 8 nadugais or 14 scres. The seasonal rains failed and the yield was very poor. Still, he got 374 M. M. per nadugai whereas the yield of the adjoining fields transplanted in the usual way ranged from nil to 13 M. M. The ryots of such fields struck with the advantage of single planting, have promised to adopt only this method, next year.
