Experiment Strips
Near the dome where men search the wide heavens above
Lie the Morrow experiment strips where they study the earth
Beneath us. Closely watched for the forty-three years since their birth
By the seekers of truth about the soil that they love.

By the seekers of truth about the soil that they love.
Next the oldest in the world are these strips that record
The results of exacting research on rotation of crops,
The alarming, increasing degree that fertility drops
And the richness intensive, wise care will reward.

The old country, at Rothempstead, holds the first place
Where the study of crops was attempted and knowledge attained,
But from Cyril G. Hopkins at Illinois there was gained
Redemption of the soil for the human race.
