TIPS ON ARID SOIL OF WEST
INFORMATION FOR BEGINNERS IN
IRRIGATION.
Greatest Danger to Land Is Now Lack
of Drainage, Ground Water
Dissolving Salt.

Washington, Oct. 15.-For the guild.
ancs of the great number of people
from humid regions who settle on the
immense areas of western lands
opened to settlement, the department
of agriculture has issued report on
Practical Information for the Begin
ners In Irrigation"
There are several million acres open
for settlement In the United States un-
der irrigation works built by private
enterprise, and works are being con-
structed by the national government
to provide water supply for moro
than million acres of arid lands.
The report says these are certain to
cause an influx of settlers into west.
ern America during the next few
years. The report discusses arid soils
and water supplies generally and de-
scrtbes how to locate and build farm
bitches, prepare land to receive water,
irrigate staple crops and how much
water to apply.
Experience throughout the arid re-
gion," the report says, 'is demonstrate
ing that the greatest danger to irri-
gated lands is lack of drainage. Water
applied to crops raises the ground
water, which brings with it the salts
dissolved from the soil; capillarity'
brings this water to the surface, where
1t evaporates. leaving the salts to ac-
cumulate until all vegetation is de-
stroyed. The only insurance against
this Is proper drainage, but anything
-as economy in the use of water and
thorough cultivation-which will check
the rise Of ground water or lessen
evaporation will decrease the danger"
