IN NEW DIRECTION.
Government to Experiment. wiki Dry
Soil Cultivation.

Soil Cultivation.
News from Great Falls has it that
the agricultural department. has de-
cided to establish a sub.experiment
station in Cascade county for thu
purpose OF conducting a series Of ex-
periments in dry land cultivation. AS
at present contemplated The expert
ments will extend over a period of
about Ave years.
Doctor Fortierfel director of the x
pertinent station at; Bohemian, and
Professor Linfield, ii. charge Of the
agricultural work at the state agricul-
tural college, we're at Great Falls
last Wednesday to look up a site for
the proposed station. They said they
were DESTROYS Of securing q lease on
about 20 or 80 acres OF land suitable
for the purpose intended.
In speaking Of the matter Professor
Linfield said that the object under
contemplation was to determine in
what manne the moisture in the
ground could be best conserved. Prac-
tice had demonstrated that much.
could be, accomplished in that direc-
ton by q rotation OF crops and new
methods of cultivation. It was fur
Their desired to learn what crops were
best adapted to dry soil cultivation
and this could they said, be only
learned Iy experimenting year after
year. They declared themselves sat
isied that the great amount of mois-
ture which fell in that part OF the
state last month could be SO con.
served as to be OF lasting benefit to
crops. This was to be effected by
preventing, as much as possible, its
running off and limiting the amount
Of evaporation.
"We shall also experiment to some
! extent here on the subject OF irriga-
! tion," said Professor Linfield, "but
that is not the main object of the
new stations. How best to conserve
the amount Of rain and snowfall that
we have in the state shall be our spe-
cial study, together with that of the
! kinds Of crops that can be raised to
the best advantage on the soil.'
A similar station is to be establish
ed in Gallatin county, where expert
ments along about the same lines
will be conducted.
