Too many farmers are conducting
their dairy as side issue when thew

consume 1t. and there is profit I'm con.

DRY FARM GARDEN METHODS
Land Is Treated by Process OF End.
less Cultivation to Keep Sur
face Soil Moist.

The present method of dry farming
is to plow the land a year before any
crops are planted. The soil is broken
to considerable depth. Disk subsoil
plows break the soil and pack 1t into
a firm bed, leaving a sort of hardpan
through which water cannot seep
away. Moreover, this well-backed sub.
soil prevents the excessive salts that
lie four or five feet below the surface
from rising by evaporation, says The
Craftsman. These salts have been the
agencies for burning and blighting all
vegetation. The surface soil Is then
pulverized and cultivated until 1t is
as fine as powder. This acts as a
mulch. The moisture cannot leak
through the hardpan, and the secret
of the system then is to prevent its
evaporation.
The principle is to work and till
the surface soil continually so that
like wet sponge it can hold the mois-
ture. The work never stops on the
land, and after every rain the sur
face soil must be pulverized anew.
For year the land is treated by
this endless process of cultivation
which always keeps the surface soil
moist and soft. Then comes the seed
ing and more cultivation until the
plants occupy the land. The cultiva-
tion must continue until the plants
are large enough to act as their own
mulch. In the harvest season, the
crops are garnered, and Immediately
the plow and harrow are put in the
field again to prepare the land for the
next seasons crop. 1t is then allowed
to be fallow until seeding time.

FACTS ABOUT DRY FARMING
Bulletin Issued by Montana Experi'
ment Station Gives Some Impors
tant Conclusions.

Bulletin No. IA of the Montana eX-
pertinent station summarizes its con-
clusions on dry farming as follows:
1. That dry farming may be car
ried on in many sections of Montana
and will return reasonable profits on
the money and effort invested. This
means that much of the great level
area of the state which will never
be irrigated may be made TO support
comfortable homes and pay returns
to the state sufficient to place the
dry lands" amongst the states valued
resources.
2. That Turkey Red fall wheat has
been the highest yielder of all crops
grown. Fall sown crops yield better
on the average than spring sown
crops, so we believe that fall wheat
and fall rye will have prominent
place amongst the crops grown on the
most successfully managed dry farms.
3. That while the experimental re-
suits have been carried far enough
to indicate positive conclusions, yet
we feel safe in advocating the use OF
from three to five pecks of seeds per
acre with the different grains rather
than larger amount.
4. That there is a distinct loss in
yield when we plant ordinary grain
crops In rows far enough apart to per-
NIT of inter-tillage during the growth
season. Planting the grain a sufii cient
depth with the ordinary seed drill
seems to be the most satisfactory
method of seeding.
5. That growing grain, each alternate
year, with properly cultivated sum-
mer-fallow between, will bring deci-
dedly more profitable returns than
growing grains every year on the
same field
6. That It is important to keep the
summer.fallow cultivated during the
season in order to keep down weeds
and volunteer grain and maintain a
soil mulch for the accumulation OF
moisture.
