DRY FARMING IS
A BIG SUCCESS
CROPS In The WEST SHOW GOOD RE-
Suits WHERE DRY FARMING IS
FOLLOWED.-HOW TO DO 1T

Prof. w. G. Palmer, of the state
agricultural college, who has just
returned from a trip through Mon
tana and Washington with the
Northern Pacific Better farming
train," states that they have had
the driest summer since they start
ed in farming, having had no rain
since the middle of April, yet in
spite of this the crops are looking
fine in many sections where they
are practicing dry farming methods
The teachings of the experts in
Montana and Washington on the
Better farming" special train was
to this effect:
Fall plow and plow deep, harrow
early in the spring, grow a culti-
vated crop, follow this with a grain
crop and where the rainfall is over
fifteen inches this could be followed
with a crop of clover. They claim
that the growing of crop of corn
was as good as summer following
and were advocating this method
Of saving moisture. They also
emphasized the need of killing
weeds, as these are large users of
moisture as we'll as plant food.
Where the soil would drift easily
they recommend using the disc in
producing the soil mulch as it
would leave the ground rougher
than the harrow and would not
blow SO easily.
The soil in North Dakota is fully
as rich and fully as retentive of
moisture as in either of these
states and the rainfall is sufficient
to grow good crops, provided it is
not allowed to escape either by
running off when it comes down
in a heavy rain or by evaporating
from the soils surface. Another
thing that needs to be given es-
pecial attention in our North Da-
kota farming is the getting rid of
weeds, and there is no better way
to do this than by growing corn or
by summer following. In grow
ing corn, however, a valuable crop
is secured, and it practically as
sures q good crop the next year, if
it is clean cultivated. Another
practice that some farmers have
been trying is to keep narrowing
their grain until it heads out, and
they have done so with much sue
cess. This would seem to be Z
little rough on the grain, and it
might be best to experiment on q
small piece of dirt. Another i'm
portant consideration is the keep
ing of organic matter in the Soil,
as it helps to hold the moisture in
the soil and helps to make plant
food available. One objection to
the summer fallow is that it al
lows the organic matter in the soil
to burn up and none is added.

Human Life" For February

Human Life, which is the magazine
about people, is full of interest because
il deals with human life, or stories about
people. 1t is published by The Human
Life Publishing Company, at Boston
Massachusetts. One writer has said that
From the beginning of literature the
most interesting thing which writer
can write has been the life history of q
man. We are like boats borne on the
swift current of the rushing river of
time. Whether our boats sink or swim,
turn to the right or to the left is a mat
ter of intense interest; indeed our inter
est is usually so intense in this subject
that we can think Of nothing else with
any zest And we study our own prob
lem of navigation on the waters OF life;
we watch our neighbors to see how they
succeed or fail, and why? Their problem
is our problem. and ours is theirs. Hence
it is that stories of Human Life have
formed the substance of the worlds
greatest literature since the days of
Homer.

In The Sweet BY And BY

LATE Young writes an editorial on the
high prices and takes fall out of the
politicians for the apparent lack of hon
esty with the farmers. He says the
farmers are the ones who are benefited
by high prices, but the politicians take
slams at the trusts, being afraid to men
ton the farmers and he concludes:
When will politicians learn to be
honest?"
The Democrat of Washington, Iowa,
answers by saying that politicians will
be honest when sunbeams are extracted
from cucumbers; when figs are gathered
from thistles; when spears are changed
to pruning hooks and swords into plow-
shares; when men give their children
stones for bread; when the leopard
changes his spots or the Ethiopian his
skin; when the cows come home; when
boys enjoy going to school; when girls
refuse to eat candy; when the drunlxards
refuse to look upon the wine when it is
red; when cats refuse to sip sweet cream;
when progressives quit running for of.
flee; when standpatters vote for Prouty
for congress; when LATE Young turns
democrat; when Uncle George Perkins
becomes q Cummins man--then, Oh then
men and brethren, but not until then.
