UTILITY OF FALL IRRIGATION
Watering Of Ground in Winter Often
Produces One-Half to Three
Fourths of Ton Of Hay.

The value of winter irrigation has
been set forth on many occasions
Many are so situated that they can
not do any winter irrigation because
the water is turned off from the canal
after the growing season and not
turned on again until irrigation is TO
begin in the spring.
Natures way of breaking II
disintegrating the solids in the sol
by freezing and thawing and our dry
soil does not freeze very much. Every
farmer knows how loose and easily
worked is the soil after the ground
thaws out in the spring, and how often
they wish they could keep it that way
all summer. But is everybody doing
all possible to promote this condition? ?
Winter irrigation will help very mate
rally. The effect of late fall irriga-
ton on alfalfa is very noticeable.
Ground irrigated in the winter often
produces one-half to three-fourths of a
ton more hay at the first cutting and
during the pas. GUNNER the first cut
ting of alfalfa from winter irrigated
land ran as high as tree and one-half
tons the acre. The effect on all other
ground is quite noticeable in our dry
springs.
With long. dry winter and spring up
to the first of May with but little
moisture one would suppose that there
would be no difference between the
ground irrigated and that not irrigat-
ed, but the crops on irrigated ground
come up much quicker and make at
least one-half more growth during the
summer One reason perhaps is be
cause they get the start of the weeds
and keep them choked down. Many
springs we have an abundance OF
moisture and every old range man
knows that the best grass follows a
soggy winter. Some farmers have
NO water with which to irrigate in win
ter but those who have should use II
by all means. All the surplus reser
voir water should be turned on to the
land in the fall and run the risk OF
entirely refilling during the winter.
Saving the moisture by tillage is al
most as important in the growing OF
a banner crop under irrigation as II
is for the dry farmer. The condition
of the soil during the growing season
in regard to the amount of water its
freedom from clods, its mechanical
condition on most of our soils have as
much to do In making the crop as the
fertility of the soil. OF course we
must have both to grow big crops
year after year. The soil must be
loosened to good depth to allow the
water from heavy rains to settle away
quickly and not stand on the top tC
form crust; to take in more water
when irrigated and so make less IN
number the irrigations with less
chance for the ground to bake.

HARM DONE BY OVERPLANTlNG
One Common Fault of Practically All
Amateur Fruit GroWers-Re-
quirements of Soils.

The one common fault of practical
ly all amateur fruit growers is the ov-
explaining of their land. The fertil-
ity of the soil, annual rainfall or irri-
cation, and variety, materially govern
the distance apart which plants should
be set On rich, moist soils, where
heavy growth is certainty, or the
dryer soils where the conservation
of the moisture must be practiced,
the upright growers" (plants which
produce erect canes) should not be
planed closer than six feet apart each
way in the hill system; or three feet
by eight in the continuous row sys.
TEN. In irrigated sections where
moisture can be supplied at will, the
plants may be planted closer. How.
ever, 1t is not advisable to plant them
more closely, since what may be
gained by an additional number of
crates is frequently lost by the de-
terioration in the grade of the fruit.
On similar soils the "viny growers
(plants such as the Logan, Phenom.
email, Evergreen, Himalaya Giant and
Early Mammoth, which produce long
PROSTATE vines or canes), should be
planted in rows eight feet apart, and
the plants from 16 to "a feet apart in
the rows, using the alternate system
thereby affording greater feeding
area for the roots of each plant.

BuckWheat for Poultry

Buckwheat is both stimulating and
heating, which renders it an excel
lent grain for winter feeding, but ii
being of fattening nature, should be
fed in moderation.
1t contains more protein egg-pro-
ducing material than does corn, but
the percentage of digestible matter is
not so great, buckwheat having about
81 per cent. and corn 81 per cent.
Buckwheat contains rs per cent. OF
protein and 54.S per cent of carbohy
drates and fat, having a nutritive ra
ito of IT, and corn 6.3 per cent. OF
protein and rs per cent of carbohy
drates and fat, and has a nutritive ra
ito of 1.12.
This proves that buckwheat is &
slightly better egg producer than corn
being more evenly balanced, but il
must be fed in larger quantities tc
gain that effect.

Have a Separator.

We have a cream separator and
keep five cows at present. We think
the separator is a paying machine.
writes d. d. Mitchell, in the Journal
of Agriculture. Every farmer keeping
three cows should have a separator. 1t
will pay for itself in three years, and
then you will have the use of it sew
eral years for nothing if taken care of.
1t pays. You get all the cream and
make one-third more butter, and bet
ter butter, and the cream is easier
churned. 1t saves the cost of labor
because there is no milk to freeze and
you don't have to dig the cream off
with something nor do you have to
wash crooks or milk pans. If you
want to raise calves you don't have to
warm the milk. 1t can be separated
and fed to the calf with the natural
heat from the COW.

A terrible enemy has wrought havoc
