THE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE

The Agricultural College at Lo-
gan has issued an exceedingly well
prepared and excellently printed cata-
loguc for this and next years course,
the first term beginning on the 18TH
of next month, the second term jan
uary 2Sth 1t contains also a COM
plete list of the students for last and
this year, the board of trustees and
the faculty, headed by Prof. John A,
Widtsoe. The engravings, which are
numerous, are exceedingly well exc
cutcd, the frontispiecc being a view
of the group of Agricultural College
buildings, to which visitors have
standing invitation. They look ex.
cellently we'll, in fact striking, on

must certainly constitute an attrac-
ton worthy of the great cause to
which they are devoted. Every de-

The Agricultural College is one OF
the institutions of which the state
may be and is justly proud. Its evo-
luton from more modest circun-

eouipped institution it now is speaks
loudly the praises of its founders

ers. That it may continue to grow
and prosper, spreading its influence
and widening its capacity for use
fulness is wish that will find a will

every loyal son and daughter OF the
commonwealth. Freed from bicker-
ings and strife, always out OF place

there is nothing to check or turn 1t

CITY SCHOOL REPORT.

We are all deeply interested in the
public schools. They are of more
Importance to the nation and every
part thereof than politics, railroads
or even gold mines. However, we
don't have to let go of either of these
in order to have the others, rather,
the more we have of either the more
of the others we are likely to have.
These things suggest themselves as
the opening of the season approaches,
and the comforting though comes
with them that in no part of the pub
lie domain are there better institutes
of learning, more commodious or
better equipped structures or a great
er percentage of attendance and eff
iciency than here in Salt Lake City.
The sixteenth annual report Of the
municipal board of education is out

part of the compilers. The expense
account and treasurer's report are
carefully made up, and the array of
details is exhaustive and interesting.
Figuring among the latter we find
that the percentage of punctuality
on the part of students is oo.7, being
so near to the perfection point that
we might as we'll call it that. The
attendance for the ensuing year will
show a very great rate of increase,
being between 5000 and 1000 or about
20 per cent, this also bespeaking a
necessary and corresponding increase
in the population. But for the fac.
that the school authorities were vot-
ed, few months ago, ample means
for additions, engagements and i'm
provements to the school system, it
might be matter of some apprehen-
sion as to whether such a rapid
growth would receive adequate at-en-
ton, but this is, as suggested, all hap
PLY provided for.

PROGRESS OF DRY FARMING,

1t used to be a saying, i'll the days
when the asst areas of the middle
west was still unclaimed, that Uncle
Sam, was rich enough to give all his
children a farm" Since that time the
family has grown so great, both by
birth and adoption, that the middle
west has been filled up, and the old
Uncle's belated children have been
pushed out to the valleys of the
mountains. He is still rich however.
The streams in his mountains have
not yet been one quarter used to r.
rigate the lands possible to be re-
claimed from the desert, and latterly
the application of scientific farming
has so enriched the old man that it
may be said with some truth even at
the present time, that still there is
farming land enough to give us all
farm.
In one months time there will con-
vene in Salt Lake City one of the
most momenteous conventions or con-
crosses that ever was held in the
United States. That congress will he
the "dry farming" congress, and its
influence will be as far felt, and its de-
auctions as far reaching in its effect
upon the country at large as any that
has been held within the past decade
1t has been said that when the Utah
pioneers turned the waters of noun
tain stream over the land so as to
plough it, and so laid the foundation
of modern irrigation, that they have
an empire to the United States. No
truer saying was ever made than
this. They not only gave an empire
to the government, they did more:
They preserved the empire which al
ready belonged to the American pee
pie. Had it not been for the science
of irrigation the vast mineral wealth
of the mountains would never have
been developed, and the golden
stream which has flowed through the
arteries of commerce would never
have been enriched enough to have
produced the industrial wonders
which the people have wrought dur.
ing the last half century.
If, however, the pioneers added an
empire to the country, it can safely
be said that scientific arid farming will
add two empires to the agricultural

to the tillable land of the arid states
scientific dry farming will add two if
not three acres, and for every home
that irrigation has made possible
there will be two homes made Dos
siblc by dry farming.
1t was thought at one time that
there were vast stretches of country
in the arid west which would never
be of any use except as a scanty graz
ing ground for western focks and
herds. True there are still great
stretches of country which will never
and can never be used for any other
purpose, yet there are millions of
acres of land which can be reclaimed
and made to produce sufficient to sus-
tain one hundred times more of ami
NAL life than, they can sustain at the
present time.
Dry farming was discovery. Like
most discoveries it came by an acct
dent AS the story was told to the
writer a man by the name of More
house attempted to- produce crop
without irrigation He ploughed Nd
the land and planted it to grain, but
found that the young plants burned
up in the summer heat. Again he
planted the land, only to meet the
same result. Discouraged he threw
up his land and Abandoned the at
tempt. Several seasons after this an
other in passing over the land was
attracted by the moisture the ground
appeared to possess. He decided to
follow up the experiment which
Morehouse had abandoned. To the
surprise of all in the countryside, the
crop was the most bountiful in that
part of the country. There was a
reason for this, and both himself and
his neighbors set about the task of
finding out the cause. A careful study
of arid soils led to the discovery that
the soil was filled with capillery
tubes which led down through the
SuD-SOlI II was ulSSONClCu tldt al
the moisture which the land absorbed
throughout the wet seasons escaped
through these tubes. 1t was also dis
covered that if the capillery tubes
were broken up by constant tillage,
that enough moisture would be re-
tanned in the soil to produce a crop.
1t was found, however, that as con-
ditions are in the arid west, that the
land has to lie fallow during one sea-
son in order to conserve enough
moisture to produce results. This
however, is no great hardship as the
crop when produced is nearly if not
quite double that which is produced
on watered land. 1t is also found
that straw and other fodder which is
grown on the arid farms contain near
ly twice the nutriment of that on the
irrigated lands.
Arid farming though it has develop
ed with rapid strides during the last
decade, is not by any means an exact
science There is still much to be
