SCIENTIFIC SOIL TILLAGE.
Professor George Severance Tells
How to Double Yield BY
Improved Methods.

Following is an interesting and
highly instructive article by Pro
lessor George Severance, agro-
nomist and professor of agricul-
ture at Washington State College,
on Soil Tillage." Every farmer
should read and study this ar
tlcle and put it in practice.
Without question it would be
possible to double the total pro-
.duction of grain in the Inland
Empire if proper methods of
tillage were followed. We must
till for at least three distinct pur-
poses; To keep the soil clean, to
put the soil into proper physical
condition for the necessary chem
zeal changes to take place In the
soil for the liberation Of plant
food, and to conserve moisture.
Under dry conditions the first
two purposes are accomplished
when we till properly to conserve
moisture. The handling Of the
soil may then be considered from
the standpoint of proper conser-
walton of moisture. Since our
precipitation occurs largely in
the dormant period our soil must
be in condition first of all to alb
Sorb and retain this rainfall as
completely as possible. To keep
the soil in an absorbent condition
a good supply of humus should be
maintained in the soil. This makes
the soil looser, more absorptive
and retentive of moisture, more
friable, with a less tendency to
puddle in winter and bake and
crack in spring. An abundant sup
ply is also necessary for the rapid
formation of available mineral
plant food in the soil.
Under our present system of
wheat farming in which we re-
move the larger part of the straw
and burn the surplus and even
the stubble, the supply of humus
in the soil is becoming gradually
depleted. The evidence of this
deficiency is seen in the greater
washing of the hill sides, the
greater difficulty with which the
soil is brought into a mellow con-
dition, and the lighter color and
the more spindling growth of the
grain. Manure spots are showing
in our grain fields more conspicu-
ously every year. Without doubt
we shall ultimately be obliged to
grow certain crops for the pri-
mary purpose Of renewing this
humus in the soil. Alfalfa and

be late spring or summer plowed,
or on all fall plowed land for late
spring seeding. Fourth, work the
furrow down close after the pillow
in all spring and summer blowing.
Fifth, keep the land perfectly
free and clean of weeds whether
in fallow or in cultivated crop.
Where there is danger of pud-
ding and washing some form of
knife weeder is preferable.

clover will probably play an inn
portant part in this regeneration
of our soil.
This depletion, however, can be
very appreciably checked by
working in all the straw and stub
BILE from each crop that we can.
Where the blowing under of con
siderable straw or stuhble has re-
suited in burning of the crop, the
fault has been in the method fol
lowed Where loose straw or
stubble is plowed under with no
previous treatment, and the fur
row is left untouched the straw
will act like a ventilator in a po-
tato pit drying out the soil com
pletely. To overcome this diff
Guilty surplus straw should be
scattered thinly over spots most
in need of it, and the straw and
stubble should be chopped into
the soil as much as possible by the
use of some form of sharp disc,
performing this operation before
the setting in of winter. The win
ter rains will beat down the loose
soil and broken straw starting it
to decay in the early spring, so
that when finally plowed under
and the furrow properly worked
down it soon becomes incorpor-
ated with the soil and helps to
form humus.
Added reasons for discing our
stubble land in the fall are: First,
to cover seeds of weeds and vol
unteer grain 50 that they may ger
inmate and be destroyed when the
land is plowed instead of being
turned under to be gradually
brought to the surface to cause
trouble in succeeding years. Sec
ond, to loosen the surface of the
soil SO that the winter prec1pita-
ton may be absorbed as complete
ly as possible. The difference be-
tween the amount of water taken
into the soil through a loosened
surface and the amount absorbed
through a firm surface is some
times very marked, instances be-
ing noted on the college farm
where the loosened surface has
permitted the absorption of three
times the moisture taken in
through a firm surface with slope
of surface and character of soil
almost identical. If our soil abb
serbs high percentage of the
winter precipitation it is equally
important that it be retained.
With the opening of spring evap-
Grafton Of soil moisture from the
surface is very rapid, the moisture
pumping up from below as oil
pumps up in a lamp wick to feed
the flame. 1t has been found that

Third avenue, was revealed today by the
finding of the child's body lying hall

fate.
The girls mother sent her last even
ing to VISIT an aunt on Fifth street. Mrs.
Brown appealed to the. police early today

RATE FIGHT SURPRISES
ALL PREVIOUS ONES

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1O.-A controversy
over railroad legislation will be precipitat-
ed in congress this winter, which, in in
tensity of interest and gravity of import
ance, promises to surpass the legislative
conflict over railroad rates four years
ago.
The first gun was fired today by Sem
ator Cummins, of Iowa, introducing a
gill proposing radical changes In the in
terstate commerce act. In a large sense
the Cummins measure is a practical sub
stitute for the present interstate COM
merce act. 1t is expected that a measure
proposing amendments to the existing law
will be introduced early in January by
Senator Elkins and will differ from the
Cummins bill in many important details.
In brief the Cummins bill requires the
Interstate commerce commission to pro-
mulgate uniform classification of freight
and to prepare a plan for the statement
of freight rates which shall hereafter be
made in a uniform way. The carriers
are rquired to adopt this classification
The commission is authorized to consid-
err rates on it's own motion with a view
to determining their reasonableness and
is empowered to fix maximum and min
imum rates. If any action instituted in
court to set aside an order of the COM
mission respecting rates, the courts are
prevented from inquiring into the reason
ableness or sufficiency of any rate fixed
by the commission.
The bill provides that changes in rates
shall not become effective until they are
approved by the commission. Acquisition
Of control of any parallel competing line
is prohibited and so is acquiring the cap
ital sto1k or bonds Of any other carrier
that is a competitor.
By tho terms of the bill carrier is
prohibited from issuing any capital stock
without payment at par either in mon
ey or in property. In effect, the commits
sion shall have supervision of issues Of
stocks and bonds by any carrier. Spe-
cihc directions are given for the DISPOSE
ton of the proceeds Of any sale of
bonds
After January 1, 1911, no carrier doins
interstate business shall be permitted to
engage in any other business than that
Of a common carrier.
