FLOWING FOR FALL GRAIN
Should Be Done Immediately After

Conserve Moisture.

When wheat follows wheat or some
other grain crop suitable seed bed
may be prepared by early plowing

be done as soon after harvest as pos.

| ing IL is we'll To follow the pillow with
the sub.surtace packer and harrow in
order to pulverize and pack the soil
at the bottom of the furrow and leave
| mellow. even surface.
This packing and pulverizing OF
the furrow slice is especially neces-
sary when the soil is plowed dry or
when siubble. trash or manure is
plewed under. because if the furrow
slice is left loose and unpulverized,
the capillary connection of the soil
With the subsoil is largely broken
of and the soil water will not rise
into the surface soil to supply the
terminating seed and feed the roots
OF the young plants, hence the seed
fails to terminate we'll or the plant
is often stunted in growth, and in
such seed bed the crop is likely to
freeze out or burn out. Because of
these results it is not safe to plow
under coarse manure or a heavy
growth of weeds or stubble in pre-
pairing a seed bed for wheat or other
small grains or grasses.
If the soil is in good physical con-
dition, not too dry or too wet, an
ideal seed bed can be prepared by
blowing Immediately before seeding,
provided the soil is repacked and
we'll pulverized but this is often a
more expensive method than the
disking or early blowing method. 1t
is also often a good plan to disk the
ground previous to blowing. If plowed

better condition to more readily
connect and reunite with the sub

If the blowing is delayed the
ground will remain in good condi-

of the surface as to bring it again into

TURN DESERT INTO GARDEN
cry Farming Movement Proposes to
DO This BY the Simple Laws
OF Nature.

AL the edge Of the American desert
the government has built expensive
irrigation plants, but these cannot
reach the interior Of the area nor can
they make ready the lend without
enormous cost. The dry farming
movement proposes to convert this
desert into . garden by the simple
laws Of nature. It has demonstrated
that 40 acres. properly cultivated,
will support family Of from three to
i've From So to s55l bushels Of wheat
per acre are possible to this dry soil.
The great Russian wheat, durum, from
which macaroni Ii made, is. raised on
soil very similar to our desert soil;
gand its importation has transformed q
foreign product into a domestic. To.
day, in this country the total output OF
sdurum wheat Is about thirty millions,
and most Of tits raised on dry lands
The demand isHgrowing and machinery
for grinding the hard wheat is being
produced. The American desert lis last
losing its reputation for aridity and
becoming factor IN our national

POISON SPRAYS
BENEFIT APPLES
Those Who Use Arsenate of Lead
Use Too Much at Time and
Usually Spray Too Often.

1t is very desirable to grow apples
free from worms. The codling moth
is the insect that lays the eggs in the
blossoms from which the worms are
Matched. Arsenical poison sprayed on
the blossoms is eaten by the young
cooling moth worms and they die be-
fore doing any damage.
A great many fruit growers do not
spray at all for the cooling moth. 1t
has been found, however, by expe-
rience that those who do spray with
arsenate of lead use too strong solu-
ton, apply too much at a time and
usually spray too often. Four pounds
of arsenate of lead to 100 gallons of
water make an amply strong solution.
A greater proportion of the poison is
an actual detriment and waste.
The apple tree does not have to be
soaked with the poison mixture to kill
the larvae of the moth. The minut-
est drops of the liquid on the calyx
of each blossom will effectually do
the work. The fineness of the spray
is no more Importance than the quaint
ity used. Each blossom should re-
ceive little. Some in spraying apply
SO much of the liquid that it runs
down the branches and trunks to the
roots of the trees, where it does
injury.
In most cases two or three pounds
of arsenate of lead to 100 gallons of
water makes solution strong enough
to destroy all of the worms if applied
in the right way. Two sprayings at
the right time are sufficient, and a
saving of material and labor. The
general notion that arsenical poison
on the trunk and branches of trees is
beneficial is a mistake. On the other
hand, they do positive injury, and
many trees thus treated die from pois,
oning.

Moles Friends Of the Farmer.

A distinguished naturalist carefully
examined the stomachs of is moles
caught in different localities, but failed
to discover therein the slightest ves-i
tige of plants or roots; on the con-
trary they were filled with the re-
mains of earth worms Not satisfied
by this fact he shut off several moles
in box containing sods of earth on
which fresh grass was growing. and: a
small cage of grubs and earth worms.
In nine days two moles devoyred $40
white worms, 1913 earth worms, 25
caterpillars and a mouse (skin and
bones), which had been alive in the
box. He next gave them nothing but
vegetables. In "a hours two moles
died of starvation. Another natural
list calculates that two moles de.
stroyed 10000 white worms, or grubs.
IN single year. If this is correct it
is strong argument in favor Of mul-
!tlplying rather than destroying the
moles. ISL

Importance Of irrigation Work.

The importance of the irrigation
movement is indicated by the work
that has been done thus far. The
national reclamation act was passed
in 1902. At that time the govern
ment had title In 16 states to total
of 6O0,000,000 acres Of arid land, Of
which 1t was estimated sufficient
could be reclaimed to support SO, 900 900
people. With the projects now under
way. the reclamation service will BY
1911 have made fruitful nearly 2,0O0,-
900 acres, at an estimated cost OF $7O-
600. 900. There are 10000, 900 acres OF
arid lands susceptible to reclamation

Varying -Price,of Wool,

Why there should be such wide
difference in the prices of wool often
puzzles the average sheep grover.
As much as five or ten cents pound
is often paid for the wool of one flock
over that of another grown practical.
9ly on the same range. One of the
chief points in the merits of wool is
the fineness and there is a great vari-
alton in this characteristic. Coarse
5ly-bred sheep may have no more than
8, 900 wool hairs to the square inch Of
skin, while the breeds that have been
bred to produce fine wool, such as the
Marine, may have 10000 or as high as
4S, 900 wool hairs to the square inch.
BY examining the shorn skin OF a
sheep under a microscope the diner
8ence in the fineness of the wool can
easily be sdiscerned.

Conservation Of Soil.

Conservation interests the farmer
because it deals with actual conditions
surrounding the preservation of nat
ural resources of the land. Nature
and the farmer must cooperate in or
der to insure permanency of profits
and the continuation of annual in
come. The tiller of the soil cannot
work with a profit from his labors
in every field of productivity. Con-
servation of the soil means protection
of the sources of wealth in agriculture.
An abundance of plant food must be
kept in the surface soil to insure good
cash returns from the investment of
time and labor. The plant food can be
retained only through systematic meth
DDS of restoring fertility and conserv-
ing the forces of nature that contrib.
ute to the perpetuation of soil wealth

ADVANTAGE OF HOME GAMER
Il ExceIs Large Factory Because 1t is
Portable, Can Be Operated in
Orchard or House.

The beauty and advantage of the
home Gamer over the large factory is
that they are portable, can be operated
in the house. on the veranda, in the
orchard or berry patch, or under a
shade tree. Then, also, no one is in a
better position to put up first-class ar
ticle than the one who raises it. 1t
is taken fresh from the farm and
canned at once, before any chance is
given for decay, which is not always
possible in large factories. Then, also,
that carefulness and cleanliness which
is more characteristic of the home than
of the factory is point Of great i'm
portance, and one that is highly ap,
preciated by the consumer.

Build l'lill Small Reservoirs.

The big rush Of waters down every
draw, canyon and stream last spring
has demonstrated the practicability Of
land owners building small reservoirs
at different places on their properties.
There is scarcely ranch but what
has suitable reservoir sites and with
e little labor at odd times, dams could
be built that would conserve not only
sufficient water to give an alfalfa
meadow located below, two or three
9trrigations during the driest part Of

AID IMMIGRANT in LOCATING
Suggested That Loans Be Made to
These Frugal and Thrifty Peo-
pie Seeking Homes.

In his annual address before the Ma
tional congress, recently held at Spo-
kane, President George E. Barstow,
said among other things:
THE National government has
passed a law providing for the estab-
lishment of bureau of immigration,
to aid the immigrants to locate upon
lands for home building, but should
not the National government go step
further? Shall be regarded as preach
ing paternalism or socialism when
suggesting that the duty of the Ma
tional government may be found in
providing under proper safeguard a
fund which may be used to make
loans to enable this frugal and thrifty
class of people to locate homes under
government irrigation plants. The
great cities are the maelstrom of our
nation. Their citizens would soon be-
come effeminate and decayed, save as
they can draw upon our country and
simple life.
There is too much unwarranted
prejudice against MANY of the nations
eeAiSASo SS1AluS5 W Jul
There are no doubt some of the
people of each nationality undesira-
Bile. But, time has shown that wheth-
er Huns or Slavs, Italians or Chinese
or Japanese they make good citizens.
Il desire to impress on you the i'm
portance of giving the federal govern
ment to understand that the people
of the nation demand that the re.
tclamation fund shall be forthwith sup
plemented by the creation and
sale from time to time Of gold
bonds to the total sum of $5,OOO,OOO
in order that much more rapid work
may be placed in reclaiming the ma
tion's arid lands. This same principle
finds its application as to the reclaim
ing of our swamp lands and improve
ment of our natural waterways. When
all these arid lands shall have been
cultivated by irrigation, we shall have
opportunity for about 25,OO0,OOO addi-
stional population with an annual in.
crease Of agricultural products
amounting to $4,000, 900, 0O0.''
