MANY ERRORS OF IRRIGAToRs
New. a. Well a. Old Hands. Make
Mistake Of Not Watering Thor
oughiy at Outset.

Many new irrigators and. for that
mater. some older ones. make the
mistake on our heavier clay lands Of
not irrigating thoroughly enough. 1t
takes time to get enough water into
these soils to supply the crop and
prevent drying out quickly enough to
cause burning or firing" When cor
rigations or burrows are used II is
often necessary to let the water run
from twenty.four to fortiy-eisht hours
to sufficiently soak the ground. Salt
sage land is usually easier to bring
into a good state of tilth than is the
heavier greasewood soil. Good salt
sage land is generally very productive
and will often produce good crops
Of grain or alfalfa the FIRST season.
There is usually n small amount of
humus or vegetable mold In such soil
and. contrary to the usual recon-
mendation. we advise shallow blowing
or merely disking the land for the
first crop. These heavier soils ARE
best suited to alfalfa. small grain and
sugar beets. 1t is not wise to grow
sugar beets on them until a crop OF
alfalfa has been plowed In.

himself, l had long talk with the
old man. and this is what | learned.
On Saturday evening before, about
ten O'Clock, he had been reading in
the sitting room downstairs, when
some one raped at the door. The old
man was alone, Warner not having
arrived, and at first he was uncertain
abors opening the door. He did SO
finally. and was amazed at being con-
fronted by Louise Armstrong. Thomas
was an old family servant. having
been with the present Mrs. Armstrong
since she was child. and he was
overwhelmed at seeing Louise. He
saw that she was excited and tired,
and he drew her into the sitting room
and made her sit down. After a while
he went to the house and brought
MDi. Watson. and they talked until
late. The old man said Louise was in
trouble, and seemed frightened. Mrs.
Watson made some tea and took 1t to
the lodge, but Louise made them both
promise to keep her presence secret.
She had not known that Sunnyside
was rented, and whatever her trouble
was, this complicated things. She
seemed puzzled. Her stepfather and
her mother were still in California
that was all she would say about
them. Why she had run away no one
could imagine. Mr.. Arnold Armstrong
was at the Greenwood club. and at last

went over there along the path. 1t
was almost midnight. Part way over
he met Armstrong himself and
brought him to the lodge. Mrs. Wat
son had gone to the hovse for some
bed linen. 1t having been arranged
that under the circumstances Louise
would be better at the lodge until
