Seeped Lands

One of the conclusions of the
Investigations reported in bulle-
tin No. As, of the Colorado Ex-
pertinent Station, was that most
of the seep water came from the
bitches, rather than from the
water applied to the soil. While
this is not always the case, it is
generally true. 1t was found
that with bitches in heavy clay
there was usually a loss equal to
depth of three inches over the
whole canal each day. In sandy
soils with some degree of clay.
the loss might be two feet a day,
and in some cases where there
was gravel bottom. the loss be-
came many times greater. One
of the old canals in the suberbs
of Greeley was found to lose at
the rate of a depth of q feet in
one day. 1t is not surprising
that an immediate result was the
loss of the garden crops below
the canal in that part os town.
What attracted my attention to
the case and led to the measure
ment being made, was a field of
cabbages, full grown with the
tops just showing above a lake
of water. In this case the canal
was an old one and had been
running without any material
loss. Some plasterers had found
an excellent supply of sand
where the ditch crossed a draw,
and. digging into the sand, had
thus given the water full chance
to leak, which it did very freely.
This illustrates the fact that
cleaning a ditch often increases
the loss. Sitting up the canal
with clay sediment, very greatly
reduces the loss. If the sedi-
ment is fine sand, the silt may be
of little benefit. Sometimes the
construction of low dams to hold
up the water and let the silt
drop, has a marked beneficial
effect.
The time has not yet come to
generally line the bitches and
canals. Measurement of hun
dreds of miles of bitches has
shown that the greatest losses
usually occur in limited stretches.
Sometimes these may be told by
an examination of the soil and
the surroundings, but often they
cannot be guessed at from a
casual surface examination. The
better way is to determine the
worst places, and then to i'm
prove these. The presence of
signs of seepage below the canal
may sometimes indicate where
there may be suspected spots.
At present the application of a
remedy to the worst places, or an
attempt to silt the canal with
clay sediment, will do the great
est good at the least expense.

Hot Beds.

0OiSilSo anu OCilCl N%SOIhOASo, s~S
well as flowers, With they are
able to enjoy as late as Christmas
and in the early spring. are the
enjoyment of all, yet this is often
as far as it goes. The fact is,
anyone that has sl.-all piece of
ground and can afford the ex-
pense of a small amount of glass
and few boards, can have hot
bed and run it successfully.
Manure may usually be had for
nothing.
The best location for a hot bed
is on the south side of a building
or of a tight board fence. The
size of hot bed sash is commonly
three by six feet.
After the size of the bed has
been determined a frame or box
without top or bottom is made of
just the right size to admit of
using the sash for cover. The
sash should slant to the south,
consequently the front of the box
will be lower than the back. An
eight-inch front and twelve
inch back will be about right,
though many other forms are
used. A hole is now dug where
the bed is to be, OF the same
size as the frame, to hold the
manure which furnishes the heat.
The depth of the hole will de-
pend upon the degree of cold
that it is expected the growing
plants will stand. Zero weather
will require 80 inches of manure,
while for late fall or early spring
usually a depth of twelve inches
will suffice.
If 12-inch layer of manure
is decided upon, the excavation
should be eighteen inches deep;
the extra six inches to be filled
in with soil in which to grow
plants.
The manure should be collected
a few days before seeds are to
be planted or plants are to be set
out. Fresh horse manure which
is mixed with one-third of fine
straw is commonly used. This
is placed in a pile to ferment,
which it will begin to do in few
days if kept moist. When steam
is given off, the pile is forked
over, throwing the outside to-
ward the center. After a few
days the manure will become
heated a second time, when 1t is
ready to put in the bed.
In filling the beds put in a
layer of manure at a time and
press it down firmly with the
feet. Care must be taken to see
that each layer is spread evenly
and packed thoroughly. The
frame is now placed so that the
bottom will be a little below the
surface of the ground and COW
cred with the sash until the bed
is heated through. When this
has been accomplished the sur
face of the manure should be
made smooth and the six inches
of fine, loamy soil filled in. The
bed should be allowed some more
time to warm the soil, when it
will be ready for seeds and
plants. In the meantime the
frame should be we'll banked on
the outside with the same heat
ing material.
Such a bed should give off heat
for, five or six weeks if made in
the early spring or late fall.
Covering of some kind mnst be
provided for the beds and be put
on before the sun gets low in the
afternoon and then allowed to
remain until 9 or 10 o'clock in
the morning, depending upon
the weather.
Great pains must also be taken
with the watering and ventila-
ting. Water only during the
