HIGH WAGES FOR
GRAPE P|CkERS
San Joaquin Growers Forced to
Pay Japanese a Big
Advance.

STOCKTON, August 23.-The Japa-
nese grape-pickers appear TO have Sc
cured complete control of that work in
the northern part of this county and
the vinepardists have been compelled
to submit for this season at least.
When it came time to make contracts
the yineyardists have been compelled
contractors insisted on $3.50 a day in
stead of s1.75 as heretofore paid for
this work. The growers objected and
at first refused to sign up, but the
Japs had formed kind of union
and not a contract would be accepted
at the old figures.
The vineyardists held a mass meet
ing and the matter was gone over
carefully. A proposition was made to
the Orientals. but they could not be
induced to accept cent less than the
schedule they had fixed. The growers
had to pay the price or leave their
grapes on the vine. They have APP
pointed a committee to act early next
season to keep from being caught
again, but the Japs only laugh at the
move, as they assert they are deter
mined to get good wages.

The important problem in dry land
farming is to conserve the moisture
In the soil--distributing it through
out the season of growth. Inc total
annual precipitation is usually suffl-
cient to grow large crop, put some
Of it comes when not needed and in
larger quantities than can be used and
often fails to come when most needed
by the crop. The soil may be used
as vast reservoir for storing the
water until it is used by the plant.
BY keeping the soil loose on top, we
stop evaporation from the SOIL so that
all the water may be used by the
plant. In this way we save the water
liz the soil until it is needed by the
crop.
Surface tillage is a means of trap
ping the rainfall. The surface soil
Is made loose and the capillary con-
nection between the loose surface and
the firmer and moister soil below is
broken, making it more difficult for
the water in the soil to reach the sur
face, where it is lost by evaporation.
The depth of cultivation desirable in
the formation of the soil mulch we'll
depend on the frequency of cultivation
and the amount of rainfall. During
a long dry period a mulch three or
four inches thick is not too much. If
crust forms on the surface, water is
lost rapidly by evaporation. If crust
forms under the mulch, it prevents

In the recent case of State VS. Hen

the circulation of air in the soil and
also favors the escape of the water.
This crust must be broken by deeper
cultivation.
Land is summer titled to store the
moisture of one season in order that
a crop may be grown the next. The
more thorough the tillage, the better
this moisture is conserved. When a
small grain crop is being harvested,
the disk should follow the binder. The
ground may be plowed later in the
fall and packed with a harrow and a
soil packer. AS soon as the frost is
gone in the spring the ground should
be made loose on top. Il Should be
kept in this condition all summer or
until the next crop is needed. The disk
and harrow should be used as often as
necessary to keep the surface loose.
When the ground is not plowed in the
fall, it will be necessary to disk it ear
ly in the spring and pillow before July
Is. Deep blowing increases the ca
pactty of the soil to hold water. If

KIND OF SHEEP
THAT PAY
ByJ. w. Bo1es, Missouri.

Tt takes the same care to save a
grade lamb that it does a pure-bred.
The same quantity of feed keeps each
alike. If a grade will make 100 per
cent a year it will be from one-quar-
ter to one-half of what pure-bred
eve will make, with a little more
money invested for the breeding
stock. A tive-dollar grade eve will
raise a $3.50 lamb. A $40 pure-bred
eve will raise a $3.50 lamb.
On the road to the station last fall
I overlook a neighbor who was driy-
ing 100 breeding ewes worth $3.50
each. | had in my wagon six ewes
worth $35 each. l could not see why
my one eve was not more valuable
to me than six and one-third of his
would have been. She ate one-s1Xth
the feed and brought as much money.
The man who saves from 80 to So per
cent. of his lambs cannot afford to
breed grade sheep. His labor is worth
too much and his time is too precious.
It is as easy to raise $40 lamb as
it is five-do1lar lamb, if your founda-
ton stock is right and you give them
proper care. A careless or negligent
person would better breed grades, If
anything at all, for he has not so
much money invested. | would not
advise every farmer to raise pure
bred sheep to sell as breeders, but l
would insist that almost every farmer
ought to keep few sheep and use a
pure-bred sire. One great hindrance
to the pure-bred business is that we
sell too many inferior animals for
breeders. Although pure-bred scrub
is better than a grade scrub, neither
should be used.
With the demand we have for bet
ter class of mutton and wool, we can
not afford to raise an inferior kind of
sheep. Early maturity and easy fat
tening are other features Ill favor of
pure-breds over grades. The time is
at hand when we must pay more at
tention to breeding stock. The de-
mand for high class material is upon
us in every department of business.
The moneyed classes are eating more
mutton than ever before. superior
quality of wool is also demanded. The
grade sheep will no longer supply our
wants. We must improve our fiocks
or quit the business.

DRY LAND FARMING
TESTS IN NEBRASKA
Station Proves Semi
Arid Lands-By W. p. Snyder, Superintendent

weeds are allowed to grow, the effects
Of summer filling are lost. The sur
face should never be allowed to be-
come hard, for this gives the same
conditions as leaving a hole in the bot
tom of a water tank: it permits the
escape of the water. To properly
summer-till land requires as much or
more labor and attention than raising
a corn crop.
Subsurface packing is the firming of
the soil beneath the mulch. This is
not done to hold the moisture but to
allow the moisture to come up with
in reach of the plant roots-to make a
road for the water to climb up, for
water cannot go upward without a
connected line along which to travel.
When the soil is very loose and full
of air spaces the line is unjointed, but
when the soil has been packed, the
air spaces are squeezed out, the soil
grains brought together, and fine
roadbed is made for the upward
movement of the water.
However, the filling of the soil is
not the sum total of dry-land farm
ing. Drought-resistant varieties, ro-
tations, and fertility are also very
important factors. The durum varie-
ties of winter wheat are in turn out
yielding the durum. Kherson and 9th
er early varieties of oats are fast re-
placing the common varieties. Alfal-
ia is destined to produce a wonderful

Bobbin Boys Wages.

John B. Lennon, treasurer of the
American Federation of Labor, deliv-
cred recently in Bloomington an adj
dress on strikes, says the Washington
Star
Turning to the amusing features of
the strike question, Mr.. Lennon said:
I remember a strike of boobbin
boys, a just strike, and one that sue
ceeded. These boys conducted their
fight we'll, even brilliantly. Thus the
day they turned out they posted in the
spinning room of their employers
mill a great placard inscribed with
these words:
The wages of sin is death, but the
wages of the bObbin boys is worse"
