MANY ERRORS OF lRRIGAToRS
New, as Well as Old Hands, Make
Mistake Of Not Watering Thor
oughly 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. II
takes time to get enough water into
these soils TO supply the crop and
prevent drying out quickly enough to
cause burning or airing" When cor
rigations or burrows are used 1t Is
often necessary TO let the water run
from twenty.four to fortiy-eight houi }
to sufficiently soak the ground. Salt
sage land is usually easier TO bring
into 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 small amount OF
humus OF vegetable mold in such soil
and, contrary to the usual recon-
mendation, we advise shallow blowing
or merely disking the land for the
hrst crop These heavier soils are

BAR WOMEN AT HUNT

women who would pound any twelve
men of any hunt gives point to the
lament raised by contributor to the
Weekly Nation over the decadence of
British sport The games which call
for grit and determination. he says,
are dwindling in popularity. He espe-
cially refers to the fact that while fox
hunting attracts larger fields. the
standard of horsemanship has not i'm.
proved among men. This, he thinks,
due to the fact that In the rising
generation men for the most part de.
vote their attention TO motoring
rather than horsemanship
Fortunately" he continues. "the
women seem, upon the whole. to ride
better than they used to do. and t.
be growing keener about It. Plenty
of men will, of course. tell you thai
women who ride across country quite
fearlessly do so In almost every In
stance through ignorance of the
danger
THAT theory is a false one. Dozens

English Sportsman Shows lndig-
nation at Cancellation of Race.
Reference to "Marsports" Demon
strates Fact That Games Calling
for Grit and Determination Are
Dwindlina In Popularity.

London.-The woman's role on the
hunting field has been continual
source of discussion among English
fox hunters. but the close of the pres.
ent season sees the subject crop up
In new light.
Point TO point races are a regular
feature of the winding up of the hunt.
Ing with most of the packs, and of
late years women's races frequently
are included In the program. This
year the Essex hunts point to point
races were TO have included a woman s
race, but that event was Cancelled at
the last moment, although FIVE women
had entered.
The incident caused speculation In
hunting circles, and now the affair
gets additional interest from a sporting
challenge by Sir Claude de Crespigny,
who, although over sixty years old, is
fine, all around sportsman and an
adept with the gloves. Sir Claude has
sent the following eplstle to an Essex
paper:

any hunt.

Irrlaate Grain Fields.

II sometimes occurs that grain
fields must be irrigated in order TO
terminate the seed. This is generally
considered as bad practise The ir.
rigating Of land after 1t has been sown
and before the grain comes up gem
orally causes the ground to crust and
the young plants have great difficulty
In breaking through. This may be
obviated by narrowing after the irri-
eating. The narrowing breaks the
crust and pulverizes the surface nice

TOO MUCH WATER INJURIOUS
Excessive Irrigation teaches Soil or
Fills II With Water to Exclusion
OF Air-TIllaee Remedies.

The lavish use OF water is the
direct cause of many serious irriga,
ton difficulties. In fact, some of the
irrigation farming in this country
owes its existence and prosperity to a
scarcity Of water supply, SO long as
farmer has an abundance of water
he almost invariably yields to the
temptation to use II freely, even
though he gets no increase in returns
as result. Where crop production
is dependent on rainfall and particu.
larly when rainfall is barely sufficient.
farmers soon learn the value of care.
fu. and thorough tillage both in pre-
pairing the land for a crop and later
whenever intertillage is possible. says
Field and Farm.
But the irrigation farmer with an
adequate water supply is slow to APP
preciate the fact that thorough tillage
methods abundantly repay their cost
In our new regions particularly the
tendency to neglect tillage is pro
nounced. Weeds are usually not
abundant, and one of the most obvious
reasons for good tillage is lacking
The fact remains. however, that in ir-
rigation farming good tillage pays
whether the water supply is abundant
or scanty. Excessive irrigation
teaches the soil or fills II with water
to tho exclusion of air and conse-
quently interferes with the activities
OF the heterogeneous upon which
plants depend for their food supply.
Good tillage produces opposite re-
suits. A wet soil remains cold while
well-tilled soil warns up quickly
and favors plant growth II is not
sufficient to keep down the weeds by
cultivation. With inteTtilled crops
cultivation should follow irrigation
and the land should be irrigated no
more frequently than is absolutely
necessary. This much is true even
with abundant irrigation water. When
the water is scanty there Is the added
advantage that II can be made vastly
more effective II supplemented by till
age.
AS people we have much TO learn
In the way OF water economy. With
proper use the irrigation supply OF
the great majority of our irrigation
| districts could be used for much
| larger areas than II covers at present.
A more Judicious use OF the supply
would also in many cases result In
larger yields to the acre and would
permit the use of large areas now
kept too wet for crop production
through the excessive use of water on
adjacent land. OF course no one who
has water right will part with any
of 1t without a big compensation and
this may be done in time, but as II Is
we have splashed all around alto
gether too much and have wasted our
v ater in riotous irrigation.
