Dry Farming In Beaverhead County.

DILLON, March 22.-N. E. Holden,
the big dry land farmer Of this valley
says that little desirable land fol
farming purposes is left on the bench
Immediately east of the city, practi.
cally all Of it having been Aled upon
during the past few months. Much
good land, however, lies farther down
the valley at q greater distance from
Dillon. Speaking of the mistake th a,
many of those just launching in the
dry land farming business are abou,
to make, be said:
"To undertake to grow a grain crou
on our bench lands the first year ia
simply inviting failure. 1t can't be
done. Tue land has to be titled a
season in advance to conserve the
moisture. BY tilling it, 1 don't mean
to break it and then let it lie there
and grow weeds and grass. Weeds
and grass take up as much moisture
as a crop of grain. The soil must be
broken, then narrowed, packed and
dlsked go as to prevent vegetation
and at the same time keep in whatever
moisture falls.
"1hose who have never attempted
to dry farm 10 this valley a. this high
are i liable ia overlook the i'm.
evaporation here aud not take
steps to conserve every bit of
moisture that falls. We have some.
thing like II inches of rainfall here
annually and much of tina: comes
after the growing season. The evap.
oration amounts to 48 inches.
There is absolutely no doubt but
hat fne crops q be grown here on
Try farms after the seed IL D planted,
provided the grower has attended to
be important matter of conserving the
Moisture the previous year. Myself
md Others have demoustrat ed this
ime and again, when those accus.
omed to irrig alton methods predicted
