Crops Draw Their Supply Of Water

ner cream.-Indlana Farmer.
Crops Draw Their Supply Of Water7
We have from time to time called
the attention of our readers to the
fact that ordinarily we do not have
sufficient rainfall even In the humid
sections, during the crop growing sea-
son, to produce n full crop. Some
experiments conducted by the Ontario
Agricultural College throw consider
able light on the question as to what
proportion OF moisture crops draw
from the rain that falls throughout
the crop growing season or what from
the store of water below. In fact 1t Is
a vital point on which hangs the whole
question of cultivation.
The station last year took num-
ber OF four-gnlon crooks and set them
outside, where they would receive all
the rain that fell during the growing
season. They then sowed them to
wheat, peas, barley, and oats, and
watered them whenever II seemed to
be necessary. The one that contained
wheat used 22.60 inches Of water, OF
which but 1851 inches fell during the
growing season. The peas used 27.3S
inches, Of which 1850 inches fell dur
ing the season of their growth. The
barley used 1852 inches and the oats
1915 inches while during the season
OF their growth but 7.1g inches Of rain
n nj Uh
2.15 times as much rain as fell during
its growing season, peas 2.19 times,
barley 2.25 times and oats 257 times.
These creeks were at first set OH
the roof; then one-fourth Of them we're
set on the ground, and another one
fourth In the ground. The result
was that there was no difference be.
tween the amount used by those set
In It; but these required less water
than those that were set on the exposed
roof. During this season there was
at no time rainfall OF as much as two
inches.
IT was discovered that the plants
began to wilt while the soil contained
by actual test 7.3 percent Of water;
that rain of 1.25 inches would satu-
rate the soil 4'5 inches, but as part
Of this was carried down, It would
moisten It to a depth of or 10 inches.
II was found still further, that a sat
urated loan contained from 80 to 80
percent of water. This was in 1905.
The year 1906 was wet, and 1t was dis
IN in a n
used about so percent more rain than
actually fell, and hence drew one
third OF their water from below.
All this shows the Importance, es-
pecially In a dry season, Of thorough
and early cultivation of the soil, thus
forming a mulch Of loose dirt and saw
ing the water below for an emergency,
which is quite certain to occur at
some periol of even wet season.
We call the attention of our readers
to this matter because we have become
more convinced with increased years
and experience that the physical condi-
tion OF the soil and the methods Of
putting it in this condition are of a
great deal more importance to the av-
erage farmer than the question Of the
fertility itself. Maintenance Of fer
tility is of very great Importance; but
no mater how fertile the soil, unless
1t can be put in such physical condi-
tion as 1t will permit full development
Of the roots Of the plant and conserve
moisture for use in a dry time, a good
