ASK FOR FARMS FOR EXPERIMENT
State Board OF Regents OF Education Urge Need Of akt Ur
Dry Land Problems

! AT the recent meeting of the board
OF regents of education, held in Pierre
the board adopted the following reso
iutloh IN regard to arid land expert
ments
| me newer regions of the North
west presents numerous problems in
dry land agriculture. This causes an
imperative demand for more work
along experimental lines Carefully
conducted experiments save much un-
necessary loss of time and money to
those who go into these regions to
make new homes, and to develop the
, agricultural resources.
10 assist in the solution of prob
lens In dry land agriculture, a series
or chain of far western experiment
stations has been established in every
state from Texas north to Canada,
with the exception of South Dakota.
In South Dakota, the experiment
station at Highmore has done and is
doing great and highly important
work in testing forage plants and
cereals for the upland prairie region
between the James and Missouri riv-
erS.
Within the last two years the open
ing up to settlement of the immense
tracts OF land lying west from the Mis-
souri, river and the extension of the
farming belt into this undeveloped sec
ton makes it highly advisable to fol
low the example of our sister states,
and establish at least two new trial
stations, one for the northern and one
for the central portion of this section.
The railways now building west from
Evarts and Pierre will make access
easy to these proposed stations.
Section for Each Station.
"The stations should consist of one
section of land each, and the sites
should be selected by committee
from the agricultural experiment sta
ton at Brookings, appointed by the
regents Of education, the choice to be
approved by them and confirmed by
the proper authorities These sub
stations should be under the manage
ment and control of the experiment
station at Brookings, but it is neces-
sary that the state provide funds for
their maintenance. An initial apprO-
priation of at least $4,000 is required
for each station, with $4,000 for each
year thereafter.

agriculture already has co-operated in
the tests without irrigation at High.
more, and by conducting tests under
irrigation at Belle Fourche. small
appropriation for further extension OF
tests without irrigation as outlined will
aid greatly in solving the new prob
lens now pressing for solution.
Increased interest at this particu-
