the coarser ones,-take bottle and
cork it up, throwing it into the ocean
it would remain the same bottle
for ten thousand years; yet, you take
bottle and break it up into fine par
ticles, it will nearly all dissolve with
in a few weeks.
Now, all that sap is, is water hav-
ing dissolved out of the soil the
food elements necessary for plant
growth, which carries them by the
process known as osmose, and the
plant is built. One Of the reasons
why maximum crops can be raised
in arid country is that the intelli-
gent irrigator can supply the right
amount of moisture at the right time
and this. coupled with constant sun
shine, the plant will grow continual
ly from the time of termination until
maturity, without any stoppage or
to dwarf It's growth. So then, the
to drawf it's growth. So then, the
success of the farmer is largely based
on the intelligent application of wa
ter. and any man can become an in
telligent irrigator who understands,
at least in some degree, the principles
that govern plant growth, especially
with reference to soil and water.
This may bring question up in
some of your minds that the coarser
soils are not as valuable as the finer
soils. | would answer this by saying
that the farmer is the larger factor
of them all. The coarser soils, by a
proper system of rotation, using al
falfa or clover as a base. can be so
built UP that they will answer more
quickly to intelligent work than the
finer soils. In addition to that they
are more easily cultivated. You can
plant your crops earlier in the spring,
have a longer time to put it in, and
hence an earlier harvest; while the
finer soil, if not worked just at the
right time, will become cloddy and
hard to manage. Then again, in the
coarser soils the rootlets OF plants
have reader access to forage for
food through the larger area SO that
in my judgment there is little diff
ference either in productiveness or
quality; they can all pc made to pro-
duce maximum crops if intelligently
rarmed by their owners.
The application of water should be
divided into three heads.

gives the irrigator control Of his wa
