DRY
FOR GUMBO LAND
New System Will Make Fertile
the Semi-Arid Regions OF
South Dakota.

Pierre, S. D., Feb. 4.-State En-
gineer Lea has returned from the Dry
Farming congress" at Salt Lake City,
where he met a strong delegation
which was ready to show what could
be done with that manner of farm
ing in a country with a light rain
fall.
Mr.. Lea is an enthusiast over irri-
cation and dry farming" and believes
that with the two systems there is no
reason why South Dakota should not
supper a dense farming population,
using the irrigation plan where IL is
convenient and not too expensive, mi
the dry farming process where the Sc
curing of water for irrigation is not
practicable.
A soil with a small percentage of
gumbo naturally lends itself to the dry
farming process, as it makes q dust
blanket of itself when once broker and
will not require as much labor to pre-
serve the blanket as will be found in
a loan soil.
