Science Of Dry Farming.

All the science there Is to arid
farming is 80 simple that one won
ders how it could have remained
unknown for so long. DR.. Widsoe
called it to my attention in the
fact that alongside the road where
wagons sometimes stirred the soil
in turning out to avoid mud holes
in bad weather, the desert weeds
were greener than farther out
whore the ground was never
stirred. Among the growing
wheat he pointed it out again by
showing a sample of ground that
had gone unprspared, taken eight
inches below the surface. II was
SO dry and dusty that it could be
blown from the hand with the
breath. Ten feet away another
sample, taken within the zone of
tillage at the same depth, Was SO
damp that it could bs rolled into
an adhesive putty ball. AL that
We have dons," was Or. Widtsoe's
explanation, has been to open
the land with our plows in the fall
to receive the moisture, and then
to seal it over with our harrows,
so that the capillary ducts, by
which the water works its way to
the surface, have been broken and
the land covered by q separate,
stirred surface coating that acts az
. blanket. Wherever there is
over 10 inches of rain fall q year,
it will produce . crop if properly
conserved. Almost all our desert
has more than this amount of rain.
Dry farming crops are now
many in number, and range from
cereals that are we'll established,
70 traits, melons, corn, potatoes,
where the status Of the crops may
still be said 10 be experimental.
In 1905 six state experimental
farms we're established in Utah tt
demonstrate what crops can be
grown without irrigation. They
have already announced three dill

RUMORED RAILROAD BUILDIN,


A newspaper correspondent at
Aberdeen says: The recent fight
made at Washington against the
establishing of q new land Office at
LeBeau was q six-day wonder, but
is such no longer. What puzzled
those in the know, as regards the
fight made, was that this should
occur in the face of the coming
opening of the Cheyenne lands.
The mystery was cleared when
the announcement was made at
Aberdeen yesterday that the Mil
waukee road will build q branch
from Mobridge in southwesterly
course to the very heart of the
new country. When the eastern
boundary of Schnasse county is
reached, according to map of the
proposed route published in last
nights Aberdeen American, the
the route will lead directly south
until the geographical center of
the Cheyenne country is reached.
The M. & st. l.. will also build
in a direction a little south of
west, from it's Missouri river ter
minus at LeBeau. The North
Western will extend from Philip
northwest into the Belle Fourche
country.
The three extensions will open
up a rich country, full of possibil-
tiles for the farmer, and the roads
expect to have the cars running
over the extension by the time the
homesteaders move on their. land,
less than q year from now.
What the foundation is for the
above we have not learned. II is
possible that the Northwestern
will build out of Philip, as stated,
but nothing has been done locally
to prepare for the work, and the
roads officials stick to it that
there is nothing doing" in rail
road building west of the river, so
far as their system il concerned.

HEARING BY COMMISSIONERS
Chamber of Commerce, Master
Builders, Contractors and Citizens
Interested Present Views.

On the plea Of, keeping as low as pos-
sible the cost of homes in the National
Capital, many residents and representa-
tives Of citizens associations asked in tho
course of public hearing at the District
building this morning that the Commis-
sioners make less severe the proposed
new building regulations.
That nine-inch party walls will be al
lowed in two-story houses in all parts OF
the District under the new regulations
was the announcement made shortly after
the beginning Of the hearing.
Almost the first argument heard by the
Commissioners at the hearing was for
such an amendment Of the proposed draft
of the building code. Engineer Commis-
sioner Judson declared that he had be-
come convinced that the request could be
safely granted, and he would 80 recon-
mend to his colleagues. Commissioners
Macfarland announced his acquiescence.
That will insure the change In the drafe
before final adoption.
Opposition to other sections Of the pro-
posed regulations was also voiced &C
length. Several builders opposed a re-
ouirement that mortar shall be half ce-
ment and half lime, others are against
the clause which VIII require each
area of 500 feet in an apartment house
to be inclosed in brick walls.
Many suggested changes were outlined
in the course Of the two hours consumed
by the hearing. About 100 builders. con-
tractors architects and other business
men of the District were in attendance.
At the opening of the hearing Commis-
sioner Macfarland outlined the work done
in the preparation OF the new code.
