CONSERVATION OF.
SOIL DEMANDED.
THIS is TO BE SUBJECT OF CARE
!. FUL STUDY BY FARMERS
OF IOWA.

| Des Moines, Sept. 14.-That conser-
walton of soil is to be a subject for
careful study and practice by Iowa
farmers is apparent. Reports come
from many districts of earth washing
leaving highlands without the fertile
coat Of earth that has made Iowa
farms such success. 1t is very likely
some systematic effort will be made to
| encourage farmers to study the mat
| ter Of soil conservation with view
Of keeping up the productiveness Of
| the state. Government statistics show
that between the five years ending
with 1904 and the five ending with
1909, the decrease of our wheat ex-
ports was over 40 per cent. In round
numbers the country's exports OF food
stuffs in crude condition and food ami
mails were $1O6, 100000, for the eleven
months ending May 81 Of this year,
1892 900 900, for the same period IN
1909 and $751; zoo, 900 in 1908.
Food consumption Is increasing in
America more rapidly than food pro-
duction, according to recent state
ment by an authority, and that is the
explanation Of the falling off Of ex-
ports. This same authority says this
country might easily double its wheat
yield per acre and make similar gain
in the quantity of everything produced
from the land. It requires better cult
walton, smaller farms. study of the
soils and their adoption to different
forms of plant life, rotation of crops,
selection of seed as careful as that
which the breeder. gives to the parent
age of animals, and proper fertiliza-
ton. BY these methods, from rs to 40
bushels of wheat per acre and a COR
responding yield Of other crops are
now being obtained. If all our farmers
could be educated to the same point,
25 bushels of wheat would be only a
fair crop; but this on our present
acreage would give us a surplus of
400, 100000 bushels for export.
This change could scarcely be
wrought without the assistance Of the
industry which deals with live stock.
The farmer and his land cannot pros
per until stock raising is an insepar
able adjunct of agriculture Important !
is the fact that of all forage fed to live
stock at least one-third in cash value
remains on the land in the form Of ma
nure that will aid in restoring ex-
hausted land to fertility and maintain
Ing good land to it's highest productive
point"
1t is considered very likely that in
Iowa some systematic campaign of ed
ucation and encouragement will be in
augurated to interest farmers in the
question Of soil conservation.

SURVEY IS NOW
HALF COMPLETED
GOVERNMENT ENGINEER IN OF
TUMWA YESTERDAY BUYING
SUPPLIES FOR CAMP.

The engineers surveying the Des
Moines river for the government, are
| breaking camp at Eddyville and pitch
ing their tents at Chillicothe while
prosecuting the survey of the stream.
They will be in Ottumwa, the halfway
post, in week or ten days. This much
was vouched by A. o. Sallee, in charge
of crew of the engineers, who was
in OttumWa yesterday purchasing sup
plies for the camp. The chilly days Of
| September and the chillier nights,
made it necessary that the tents in
which the engineers live, be heated,
and for the purpose Of securing heat
ing apparatus more than anything
else, the visit to Ottumwa was made.
Engineer Sallee is apparently .
young man who knows his work thor
oughly, and in conversation at the
rooms of the Commercial association
yesterday afternoon stated that one
half of the survey is now about COM
pleted. Mr.. Sallee states that the river
above Ottumwa is very crooked and
that while this helps the stream for
navigation purposes, it is not favorable
for the owners of land in the vicinity
on account of the overflow that results
from the retarding of the current by
the numerous crooks and bends Of the
stream. Notwithstanding the low stage
of the stream at the present time, Mr..
Sallee said that the volume Of water
is easily sufficient for navigation II.
controlled as planned by the lock and
dam system.
