ALKALI SOILS.

General Government Examining and
Ascertaining BestWayto 10 Treat Them.
In his report recently submitted
the Secretary of Agriculture makes
many recommendations of peculiar in
trest to the farmers OF the inter-
mountain or arid land states and
territories. OF the division of soils.
the secretary says. this division has
continued and considerably extend
ed the investigation and the mapping
of the alkalie soils Of the irrigated
districts of the west, with results
which are at once interesting and
practically important to the irriga-
ton farmer. Three fled parties
have been out during the season
mapping a small area in the Yellow
stone valley in Montana; also about
15O square miles in the Pecos valley.
New Mexico, and $50 square miles
in the vicinity of Salt Lake City,
Utah, with reconnaissance over a
much larger area.
"Short circulars are being prepar-
ed for immediate and wide circula-
ton calling attention to the condi-
tions due to, and the best measures
to prevent injury from alkali or
seepage water, as well as the best
means for the reclamation of injured
or abandoned lands. Fuller reports
will then be prepared, with detailed
soil and alkalie maps on a scale of
an inch to the mile, to be published
in volume covering the field oper-
ations of the division during this
year.
The trouble from alkalie is due
primarily to the large amounts of
soluble salts generally presant in all
soils of an arid reagion. The rain
fall is not sufficient to cary off the
salts as they are set free in the de-
composition Of the rocks. These salts
are natuarly distributed throughout
the soil, and for few years are not
harmful. with the application of
irrigation water, however, in the in
tensive cultivation Of crops, the ex-
cess of water accumulates and is Ii
able to fill up the subsoil, and this.
sSSsder with the rapid evaporation
in an arid climate, shifts the salts
until they gradually accumulate at
or near the surface in such quanti-
ties as to be beyond the endurance
of crops. The natural drainage has,
of course, a great influence on such
an accumulation of both seepage
waters and alkali.
''Another cause, and perhaps the
most important one, of the rise OF
the subsoil water aud accumulation
of alkalie is in the leakage or seep-
age from canals. As such damage
is liable to be Widespread, it is q
matter for serious consideration
whether canal companies should not
be required to protect their bitches
from undue loss, and individuals be
restrained from over-irrigation or
made liable for damages in civil
suits"
A number of our farmers here.
abouts may find it of advantage tc
their work to secure copies of the
pamphlets as soon as they are out

pretty thorough understanding was
arrived at that the resolution would
be considered and probably reported
at once to the house. Some changes
are likely to be made in the resolu-
ton, however, by the omission Of the
two banks specifically named, thus
making the inquiry relate generally
to all banks. In the form thus re-
ported back to the house il is ex-
pected that the resolution will pass
without objection, and that any de-
bate on the question involved will be
deferred until the secretary of the
treasury has an opportunity to COM
ply with the request for informa ton
