BARE. .FALLoW IN ARID .REAs
Experiments at Indian Head Show
Possible Yields That May Be OBJ
tained on FaIlow Land.

The experiments conducted at In.
dian Head. Sask.. at the government
experiment station. show In a very
striking manner the possible yields
that may be obtained from growing
wheat on fallow land under dry condi-
tons. The figures submitted below
cover period Of 20 years. They are
field returns. which are always
smaller than returns from plats.
The period covered begins with 1891
and ends with 1910. The average
yield OF red fife spring wheat for the
said period was 1896 bushels. The
average precipitation during the en-.
tire period was 1909 inches annually.
This. however. does not include the
snowfall. hence SO far the record Is
incomplete. But the snow fall at In.
dian Head is usually light.
In 1892 on rainfall Of S.92 inches
the yield was 1920 bushels. In 1894
on a rainfall Of 3.s inches it was IT'S
bushels. and In 1899 on a rainfall of
s.H inches the yield was 1920 bush.
els.
During the same years the oat crop
on summer fallowed land gave an av.
erage Of s2.33 bushels per acre. Dur.
Ing three Of those years 1t went over
the one hundred bushel mark. In
1903. on rainfall of 1856 inches. 1t
was 1882 bushels per acre. These
facts are very striking. They show
what may be expected In dry areas Of
the semi.arid northwest where the
best OF cultivation is given to the land
In 1892. on rainfall OF 6.92 inches,
the yield was 51.6 bushels. In 1894
on a rainfall Of 3.s inches It was "a
bushels. and in 1899 on rainfall OF
9.44 inches 1t was "a bushels.
1t should be stated. however, that
the returns in wheat were not exactly
proportionate to the precipitation. In
1900. for instance, with precipitation
OF l7.74 inches the yield Of wheat was
only li.i9 bushels. and In 1907 with
rainfall OF 1917 inches the yield was
IL bushels per acre. Other factors,
therefore. play an important part In
determining yields in dry areas.
1t should also be borne in mind that
the yields given relate to crops grown
on summer fallow land. This would
mean that a return OF 16.4S bushels
was the return for each year In wheat.
and that 4l.l6 bushels was the return
In oats. The one crop grown In two
years would involve considerably less
labor than two crops grown In the
same period. The summer following
OF the land also prevents 1t from be-
coming foul with weeds.

II is the same old story over again
this year. II seems to take a tre-

OF Providence. to get 1t into farmers

thing. The Hoards Dairyman herd
