PROBLEM OF DRY FARMING.
Agricultural Department Has Scheme
for Raising Plants with
out Use of water.

1t Is probabls that in the near future
Il will be possible to raise good crops
without either natural or artificial irri-
cation. AS is apparent to everyone.
even the most liberal system OF irriga-
ton reclamation will not exhaust the
available arid and semiarid regions OF
the west as even when irrigation has
been applied 10 its utmost limits there
will remain some millions Of acres CT
fertile land that adjoin these reclaimed
wastes The lands lie principally be-
tween the one hundredth and the ons
hundred ard twentieth meridians and
comprise areas over which there Is 2
deficient rainfall, with no available
neishboring tources Of supply which
might be brought to them even by ca
nails.
But tbs department or agriculture has
other resources TO fall back upon. II
the customary crops require water why
rot develop new crops that can be grown
ary? This, In substance, is the problem
the bureau Of plant industry has set iog
Itself. Dry land farming or "dry farm

per cent. the higest movement was
not unexpected and was of little in.

The rise was much less than often

Most of the prominent stock in
speculation was Amalgamated Copper
which rose to a new high level on the

the stock was the report of large
foreign buying of Copper. The re-

had been dissolved also had favorable
effect upon Amalgamated Copper.
