TIMELY HINTS
 FOR FARMERS. A Lesson In Intensive Farming by R. ii. Forbes, Director and Chemist of Agricultural
 Experiment. Station.
University of Arizona, January Is. lSE.

University Of Arizona, January l5, lso. Just weet Of Yuma, Arizona, Tn the alluvial hood plain Of the Colorado, lies a little farm of 7-2 acres which on May ], l9o5. was virgin bottomland, covered with saltweed, arrow brush and creos0te bushes. Tne original purpose of the tract was for planting selected varieties Of date palms imported by the U. S. Department Of Agriculture from the Old World. The Experiment station, May 3, be gan preparing the ground, and on May 70 the work of levelling, bordering and irrigating the tract and the planting of l52 palms. was completed.
 THE PLAN OF WORK.
 Recognizing, however that 0 farmer with his living to make meantime, cannot afford to walt for an orchard to come into bearing, 1t was planned to plant crops for quick re- turns between the tree-rows thus putting the work on feasible basis from the small farm CTS point Of view. In order to economize ground the irrigatinR borders were SO placed as to coincide with the rows Of palms, thus utilizing space otherwise usually wasted. The tract was divided by the borders into lands, for the most part one-half an acre in size. lrrigating water from the Colorado Valley P. & l. Canal was obtained in the ous- tomary manner, and F.. l.. Crane, himself a Yuma Valley farmer, undertook the care Of what WAS nicknamed our play farm"
 In size, as well as in the intensive character Of the work planned, this farm" Is the op- posite of the average holdings of this locality. The prevailing crops of the region are alfalfa, corn, barley, and forages tn general, compara- lively little attention being given to vege- tables and fruits. Withal, the cost of levelling land In this region Is high, rarely falling be- low twenty dollars an acre at current prices for labor and teams. Moreover, the cost, ex- elusive of maintenance, of the Government irrtgating system now under construction will be about $3.50 an acre annually for ten years. To meet these and other heavy items of expense In connection with the establish menL of c farm in this region, intensive crops Of more remunerative character than those now in vogue, are essential. It was partly, therefore, as an object lesson bearing upon these financial aspects Of the general situa. ton, that this cultural work was planned.

The amount Of labor expended upon this crop was large for the area, especially at the preparing the land and about 32 days, mems time, were required to bring It through, al- though the work was not heavy and could have been largely performed by boys. The yield was low owing to the desert and unfer- tiliZed character of the soil, onions requiring large amounts Of organic matter in the soil to give good results.
