Growing Of Egyptian Wheat
In Lower Rio Grande Valley
By D. w. Hornaday

Of irrigating and cultivating the crop
are practiced by the farmers there.
Hog raisers and stock farmers gen
orally are greatly interested in the
results that have been accom- plished
this year in growing Egyptian wheat
in the most southern portion of Texas.
/. is claimed that the grain is especial
ly adapted for fattening hogs and
that one bushel of it is almost equal
In nutritI e qualities to one bushel of
corn. The enormous crop yield of ap
prOximateIy ESQ bushels per acre in a
period of nine months and the further
fact that the grain has wonderful fat
tening properties for hogs and other
livestock makes the hog raising
proposition unusually attractive for
that region and opens up a new avenue
of greater profit to the stock farmer.
Cholera and other hog diseases are I'M
known in the valley territory. 1t is
stated by professor Mally that condi-
tons are ideal for establishing hog
ranches where this wheat is grown.
Success of First Crop.
The success of this first years
Egyptian wheat crop in the Rio
Grande valley has attracted so much
favorable attention on the part of the
farmers of that region that there will
be an enormous increase of the acre
foot to thresh and market the grain
on an extensive scale. 1t commands a
good price as a feed for livestock. 1t is
also in great demand as a poultry
feed. 1t is believed that very large
market for the grain can be quickly
eSta bhshed in Mexico, where it can be
made to take the place, to a large ex-
tent, of corn which is now the prin-
cipal food product of the poorer class
of Mexicans. Experiments are now be-
ing made in the manufacture of flour
from the grain with the view of plac-
ing the product on the market in
Mexico. While the bread that is made
from this flour is coarse it is richer in
nutriment than bolted wheat flour, it
is claimed Some Of the Mexicans of
the lower Rio Grande valley are using
the wheat in place of corn in making
coarse bread and cakes They use the
primitive method of grinding the grain
between stones to make it into flour.

+ Asst year, in the Mesilla valley, the
first killing frost came on Sept
- %; the year before, on Sept %.
Old settlers predict an early winter
for this year, mainly on account of the
cold mornings during the early part OF
September
Frosts may be expected when the
temperature falls 8 to 10 degrees below
the freezing point For frost to be de-
posted, it is necessary that the plants,
ground or other surfaces be of freezing
temperature. A night most favorable
for frost is one that is clear, calm and
cloudless Clouds have the effect Of
retarding the escape of warm air from
near the earths surface; whereas. when
the sky is cloudless, the warm air
rises and the cooler air covers the sur
face. When the night is windy, the
cool air is prevented from forming a
cold layer near the ground and is kept
mixed by the draughts of air
1t has been observed countless times
that orchards and plants like tomatoes,
chile and sweet potatoes growing on
elevated land often escape injury when
like plants on lower ground are killed.
Consequently, whenever possible, 1t is
advisable to plant delicate crops not
in low spots, but on the high land. 1t
is thought that in years to come our
mesas will prove to be popular loca-
lions for orchards.
Waters Influence on Weather.
Bodies of water also have great in
fluence upon local weather conditions.

chards from the effects of frost by IT.

Cadwallader saved his orchard by open

suits that other farmers did by using
orchard heaters.
In the fall of the year, it is especially
noticeable that water becomes cold
much more slowly than the surround
ing atmosphere. The air also takes UP
moisture and thereby keeps the heat OF
the earth from radiating too rapidly. 1t

The Effect Of Fall Frosts
On Crops Of This Section
Schultz Assistant Professor Of AgrOnOmy Mex COg

has been noticed that regions exposed
to west and southwest winds that blow
across bodies of water are comparative
~ free from frosts. 1t is stated that
the east coast of Florida, which is pro-
tected by the Indian river on the west,
is entirely free from frosts; likewise
I'M the central and northern portions of
the United States, localities having
bodies of water on the west and north
west are practically secure and also
derive added benefits from heavier
snow fall.
Excuses of Moisture.
1t is interesting to note the distinc-
ton between excess Of moisture in the
soil and excess in the air. When the
soil is not too damp. frost is more like
ly to form on it than on dry soil. When
too damp, the moisture from the soil is
absorbed by the air and radiation OF
heat is retarded. Evaporation in itself
produces cold as most of US have no
ticed in splitting gasoline. ether or car
bon isulphid (high-life) over the
hands 1t therefore follows that a
moist soil is more susceptible to frosts;
also soils which are dry on the surface,
but moist below, and those that shed
rain with absorbing ii.
Effects of Dust and Smoke.
Dust particles and smoke also have
great influence upon the changes Of
temperature The dust absorbs heat
during the day and at night radiates 1t,
thus reducing the temperature of the
surrounding air. When the air is very
dusty or smoky, it often happens that
the lower strata are kept from warm
ing during the day and cooling by
night by the particles Of dust or smoke
above them. Advantage of this is taken
when orchards are smudged and cover
ed with layer of smoke.
In the evening, when the air is cool
ing, its capacity for holding moisture
decreases and point is reached when
il is saturated and can hold no more.
When at this temperature, the air is
said to have reached its dew point, and
a further decrease will cause the
moisture to condense into cloud, fog,

CRUCES PEACHES
PROVE EXCELLENT
Spanish Onions Also Being
Raised for the Purpose
of termination.

Las Cruces, n. NJ, Oct Professor
Fabian Garcia, head of the horticultu-
raj department of the New Mexico Ag-
ricultural college and experiment sta
ton, is now engaged in compiling data
on the results of the culture Of peaches.
It has been found this year that the Ell
berta is not so prolific producer as
some other species, although it is one
of the best in flavor and size.
The best results obtained this year
were from the Crothers, a late fall va
riety. From one acre of four year old
trees Prof. Garcia secured over 800
boxes. The fruit had been scientifi-
cally thinned early in the season, max
ing practically the entire crop market
able, each peach being very large and
without blemish. From SO trees of the
Texas King variety 154 boxes of choice
fruit was picked and marketed
Professor Garcia and his assistants
have also been experimenting with the
Spanish onion for seed. Last fall the
bulbs were planted and this fall the
seed harvested ran 500 pounds to the
acre. The seeds, were tested for germ1-
nation and proved to be from IS to 50
percent fertile. This onion experiment
will be carried on through several more
years, the idea being to find out wheth-
er or not the seed grown here Will re-
main true to type and reproduce the
genuine Spanish onion of as good type
as those raised in Spain At present
all the seed for this onion has to be
shipped from SPAIN but if the seed
grown here does not revert in type,
then there will have been established
another extremely profitable south
western industry.
The onion crop other than that
grown for seed did not do well this
year on account of the unusual and
excessive hot weather in the month Of
June the crop turning out at only
about so percent of what has been the
yield in former years. The station
and farm force is now preparing the
ground for next years experiments.
Operating a large pumping plant, the
department was not handicapped this
year on account of the river being dry.

and as a practical method of agricul-
ture was looked upon as unsafe and
impracticable until about five years
ago. Since then rapid development and
practical demonstrations have been
made in western North Dakota, South
Dakota, Colorado, Oklahoma, Texas,
California, Arizona, Wyoming, Mon
tana, Idaho, Oregon and Washington.
No QUESTION About Results.
While it is a fact, that horticulture
under dry farming conditions has been
practiced with profit for many years
in several western states, including
Washington, it has been generally be-
lieved that these growers were battling
with a difficult proposition. There is
no longer any question as to quality
of the product, II the work is we'll done
and necessary rules are followed. Dry
land orchards are known to Withstand
many conditions that would be severe
tests to those in irrigated districts ow-
ing to the fact that dry land trees are
not filled with sap at freezing periods.
The amount Of rainfall required for
fruit growing is difficult to determine.
Reports from many parts of the coun-
try indicate that this is not so i'm
portant as is the matter of soil treat
ment and physical conditions of the
soil as related to moisture conserva-
ton.
The Dry Farming congress was not
organized to take the place of scientific
bureaus or state and federal depart
ments, but established to collect evil
dence of operative dry farming, act as
a vehicle for the exchange of thought,
lead in agricultural education along
general lines, encourage the discour-
aged and WELD an influence toward

E,evD+ian wheat is comparatively
small After the land has been pre-
pared in March it was the practice OIL
some of the farmers this year 10 give
the ground a thorough irrigation just
prior to planting the seed Olher
growers did not put the water upon
the land until after the seed had oeen
planted. The planting is done in drills,
the rows being 31z to feet apart II
is the opinion Of professor Mally that
better results would be obtained II the
drills were of a uniform width or Tour
feet He says that the plants sucker
very extensively and soon fill the IN
tervening, space between the rows II
requires three irrigatiOns to make eacn
crop. and there should be at least two
civilizations after each irrigation 1t
is considered practically certain that
the stubble will live through the milo
winter season in the valley, as 1t sell
dom froSts there, and that II Woulu
probably produce an abundant y1eId
the second year without re-plantlns-
1t is the advice Of professor MalIy'
however, that in order for the Esyp-
tfan wheat farmer to attain the great
est degree of success he should give
his land a fresh preparation and a new
planting of the grain be made at the
beginning of each spring season He
saws that the new growth from the
old stubble can be used very profitably
during the winter season as pasturage
for hogs and other livestock.
Can Be Grown Here.
The growing of Egyptian wheat IN
other parts of Texas is urged by pro-
lessor Mally. He says that it is essen
TALLY a dry land crop, although 1t
produces a much larger yield when 1t
is grown oy means of irrigation.
This grain gives a yield Of so to so
bushels per acre, per annum wnen
grown by dry land farming methods,
he continued. 1T ought to be grown
extensively all over Texas. 1t Will
grow anywhere that Kaffir corn or
milo maize are raised. 1t has been
proved by actual tests that 1T Will
make more forage per acre than any
other forage crop and Will stand more
drouth than either Kafir corn or milo
maize for the reason that its roots go
down deeper into the soil
Care In Selecting Seed.
Growers of the grain should exercise
the greatest care in selecting the seed
for planting, professor Mally says.
Smut and other enemies of the plants
can be avoided by having the seed
properly treated before planting. He
says that in his investigation Of the
conditions of this crop in the Rio
Grande valley he found one field that
was slightly infested with smut This
is a condition that can be easily over
come 1t is his opinion that with proper
cultivation and attention there is no
reason why the crop should not De
grown with an absolute certainty or
an abundant yield.
