REAL DRY

While Uncle Sam is spending mil
lions in Arizona, Idaho, California,
Wyoming, Nevada and this territory,
for irrigation projects to reclaim the
arid wastes, there is a man IN Utah
who proposes to make crops grow
without any artificial watering Civ
en- a quarter section OF land, and no
initial capital is required save hard
work and plenty Of pluck.
The matter has been taken up by
the government with the result that
several experimental stations have
been established throughout Utah.
Just what this new method of farm
ing means for the west is best told in
the words of Prof. P. A. Yoder, in
charge Of the work.
Millions Of acres of fertile ia1d.
lying nicely to be cultivated, can new
err be reached with water to irrigate.
By methods in farming as practiccd
in humid regions we can raise so lit
tie that we count it improbable, and
designate these fine areas as arid
wastes or deserts. Everything is fav
orable to crop production excepting
the water. The rainfall and snow
fall Is only half enough to produce a
crop. If, however, the water of two
seasons can be utilized to produce
one crop, it means Gee There. is
more than one way to bottle up wa
ter, and the best is to use the soil it.
self as a bottle. II the soil is deep, 1t
will hold all that falls upon it without
leaking out below. If the farmer
plows it deep, subsoils it in the fall
and lets 1t lie rough through the win
ter and spring, he opens the bottle
ready to catch all the water, If ne
keeps 1t blanketed with a few inches
Of very loose dry soil by cultivation
When h soil is in a condition to
crumble nicely, and then cu1tivates
frequently thereafter through the
summer, he relatively corks up the
bottle so that a relatively small part
of it gets out into the air. He then
also keeps all weeds down and pre-
rents the enormous leakage through
the roots, stems and leaves of the
plants which would otherwise take
place. Next fall he again opens his
bottle by deep blowing. and either
sows his winter crops then, or his
crop next spring.
'eThe water thus accumulated Is su
fhcient to develop good crops of those
kinds which mature fairly early, like
wheat. barley. oats. ye. alfalfa and
broom grass. He however. does not
sow these crops very thick. as that
would exhaust all the moisture before
the plants have time to mature.
The moisture that gets into the
air through the plants constituting
the crop is not wasted, as that which
gets out through weeds or the hard
packed surface of the soil. BY such

CHAIRMAN ADAMS OF
ARIZONA AND GAMBLING.

Tucson (Ariz.) Daily Star.
j.. c. Adams, the chairman Of the
anti-state territorial committee, is
proprietor of the Adams Hotel at
Phoenix, in which hotel the famous
roulette wheels clear. from $4,000 to
$25, 900 annually out Of those who
play the game. Statehood will knock
out gambling. The chairman of the
anti-joint statehood territorial COM
mittee realizes this. This fact may
have somewhat to do with j. c.. Ad-
ans enthusiasm against joint state
hood. 1t is also a noticeable fact
that more than one of the territorial
committee under him are votaries of
the roulette wheel, thus it will be
seen that the gambling interests of
Arizona as represented by Adams and
the mining and railroad interests
have pooled issues, which makess a
very strong combination, but not
strong enough to defeat the will of
the people.

Hopes Successful Fair
Brought Fine Exhibits.

One OF the most successful fairs
ever held in the county was that
closed at Hope last week. 1t was not
only q remarkable display Of the pro-
ducts OF the county but 1t was at
tended BY 1900 people on each Of the
big days.
The fair project was started only
six weeks ago and the following off,
GERS were placed at its head: H. r
Little, president; L. L. Vrooman,
secretary; J. K. Lumbar, treasurer.
How well they did their work the
results told. The fair was held In
town, the auditorium and the sale
barn being used for the displays and
the crowds spent their time In the
stores and aloag the streets instead
Of out on bit Of prairie as 10 usually
the case. This made the visit very
pleasant and profitable for all.
In the auditorium the art and farm
products were shown. Ninety entries
were shown in the agricultural dis.
play and included some beautiful
fruit and grain. There were pump
kinS Weighing 90 pounds and grain
as fine as any ever raised. The apple
display had 1875 entries, one man
showing 2S kinds. 1t was said by
those who were at the Portland expo
sition that no finer apples were shown
there than In the Dickinson county
display. The cooking display showed
sone Of the dainties for which the
ladies Of south Dickinson are famorS
and the art work was such 40 delights
the feminine heart. The Dillon Art
CLUB had more than half OF the dis
plays Of this sort and Its articles were

Next to the farm products the cattle
probably caused the most interest,
