Rushing Farm Operations by Putting
IN Spring Wheat and Other Crops.
Perhaps never in the history Of
Sherman county has a seasOn~Open-
ed so auspiciOusly as that OF 1906
The winter was open and unusually
warm until the arrival Of spring,
when the whole country experienced
a heavy precipitation, which lasted
from the first Of March VI until al
most the present time. The ground
has been continually moist. and fall
wheat that was put in after the crops
were harvested last year, gives ex-
cetlenr promise OF good harvest
The recent heavy fall Of moisture
has prevented early spring farming,
but the weather for the last week or
so has dried out the ground so that
il can now be worked. Everywhere,
as one drives over the county, the
farmers are busy blowing and seeding
the ground Much spring wheat is be
ing put in, and there is a good pros
pect that Sherman county will enjoy
large acreage in corn this year.
The oldest and most thrifty farm
erS say that crop seems very sure.
They say that in all their experience,
they cannot recOllect q spring that
was better for promise Of crop than
this season is The ground is wet to
a considerable depth, and although
there is no abatement Of moisture, it
seems reasonable to suppose that,
where crops have been well put in,
they viii resist a considerable stretch
OF dry wather without injury
In connection with the past few
seasons OF agricultural success in
this section Of the country has been
the surprising increase in the price OF
land People coming from the east

who has been used to cheap land so
long that his conversion has to be

OUgh that he can make a living in this

the eCeeding advantage that he has.
It is hard for him to realize that he
has been swept along by the tremen-
dOus stride and progress Of this west
eTn country The secret Of this agri-
cultural progress lies in the Identified
ton Of this country with the sections

SNOW FORMED A sIPHoN.

Demaree's Big Tank


Demaree's Big Tank
Mr.. c. NJ. Demaree, one Of the
regular panel jurors, was in GOOdland
this week TO attend court, and called
at this Office Thursday morning In
speaking Of the blizzard Of March !
and ?, Mr.. Demaree called our atten-
ton TO an interesting phenomenon,
that Of snow siphOning a tank Of Wa
ter completely dry
He said that he had a large water
ing tank on his place and kept a good
supply Of water in it for his stock
during the storm. The wind began
to pile snow on the north side OF that
tank" he said, and after working
it as high as the tank, the snow kept
creeping down over the edge on the
inside almost feeling its way to the
water. The flakes were fine and dry
but well packed, keeping out the air.
SO, when the snow reached the water,
il sucked it up by capillary attrac-
ton and actually pulled the water
over the edge of the tank and emp
tied the tank as clean as though it
had been done by artificial siphOn.
That makes the second time this
phenomenon has emptied my tank,
and / don't know whether it's a hint
that ] should study dynamics Of fluids
or not Maybe I'm called to be q
scientist, but haven't heard any
sounds or seen any signs except the
siphOn.'

Other things have operated to cause
