1t is sometimes necessary to pass
the drain ditch from one side of the
road to the other by means of cul-
vert. Do not make the culverts too
small. Economy in culverts often
appears on the wrong page of the
ledger. In the construction of cul-
verts permanency is the principal
item, and the culvert should be SO
placed as readily to take care OF the
water, and be placed at such a depth
as not to cause a projection in the
road surface.
In our irrigated districts culverts
that cause rough riding are very
common and little grading on each
side of the oulvert will greatly re-
lieve the annoyance Try it.

FORT COLLINS FARMER
HAS WHEAT RECoHn

Fort Collins, Aug. 25.-car, uor
man. living six and half miles
southeast OF here, claims the wheat
yield record for Colorado. He raised
seventy-tive bushels of spring whaot
to the acre on a five acre tract The
best previous record known here is
from the P, K. Paterson ranch, near
Longmont' which three years ago
gave a yield Of seventy-two bushels
to the acre.
The Hoffman field was planted TO
Defiance wheat, raised by the Agri-
cultural college. For this climate
the Defiance wheat has been proved
many times to be the best producing
variety under irrigation.
Up to the time the Hoffman field
was heard from the record for this
season locally was held by Howard
Springer of Timnath, with sixty-six
and half bushels to the acre.
Water Commissioner John Arm
strong OF the third district declares
this is the best. season the Poudre
valley ever has experienced in the
way of lesson in water economy.
'If the wheat had been irrigated
once more, he said, eve would have
had thirty and forty bushels instead
of fifty and sixty to the acre. Oul
trouble has been always too much
water and the grower ought tC
realize by this years experience thai
they have been watering their grair
too often. l am sure some of then
can attribute their good returns tc
the fact that they were short o
water"
