with delight by farmers, automobiles
and travellers generally.

The increase In evaporation is very
marked as we proceed southwark
through the Great Plains, the seasonal

fall In the two states, This line in
North Dakota passes through the
head Of the. Red River valley, where
the rainfall has been ample for the
successful growing of wheat upon the
same land year after year. In Texas
the 20-inch line passes through eoun.
try which is still largely grazing land
and where agriculture is confined to.
the most drought-resistant crops, such
as kafir and milo. It is evident, then,
that in dry-arming sections having
equal rainfall the north has decided
advantage oyer the south-owing to
the lower evaporation. &
+. DR.. H. L.. shantz Of the bureau OF
plant industry finds that the distribu-
ton Of native grass lie a good index
of the rainfall required ia different SEQ
ittons Of the Great Plains. Short
grass, which consists chiefly Of buffalo
grass and grama grass, is well suit
led for this purpose. since it occurs
from Montana to Texas. In each Sec
ton the grass grows as far west as
the opposing Influences Of rainfall and
evaporation will permit. Its growth
to the east is checked by competition
with the prairie grasses. Thus we have
a strip Of short grass extending from
Montana to Texas. limited on the west
side by drought and on the east by
competition with other grasses. There

Panhandle OF Texas Is therefore peally
no better for growing crops than Is
inches In Montana or Dakota, owing
to the greatly increased evaporation
on the Texas plains.
The influence OF the amount of
evaporation in different sections of
the Great Plains upon the effective
ness OF the rainfall In crop production
Is illustrated In the accompanying
chart Zig. u. The heavy curved line
marked "20" passes through points In
the Great Plains states having an an
uual average rainfall Of 20 inches.
From what has already been said. it is
evident that the conditions determin-
ing crop production become more and
more severe as we pass southwark
along this line, owing to the increase
In the evaporation. It would there
fore be necessary to move more and
more to the eastward from the line
representing an annual raineall Of 20
inches as we go southwark Though
the Great Plains, in order to find con-
d1t1ons that are equaaly favorable for
crop production so far as rainfall is
concerned. The broken line which Ia,

inches In North Dakota. The actual
rainfall along this line increases as
We go south through the area until the
