NARROWING HOLDS MOISTURE
One Of Most Important Objects West.
ern Farmer Must Bear In Mind,
Especially During Fall.

The proper method OF farming, un
like many trades or lines Of business
cannot be confined by any hard ane
fast rules.
Different soils require dlreren
treatment. and a treatment which
might be ideal for one season nigh,
not be equally so for the next How
ever. the conservation Of moisture I,
one of the most important. II not the
most important, objects the western
farmer must keep in mind and con
duct all his operations with that end
In view.
He must keep this In mind when fall
blowing, but opinions differ as to the
best method. Some say they harrow
down; others say leave 1t rough to
hold tho snow. I have observed and
tried both methods. writes Charles
W. N. Tinott In Campbell's Farmer
but always harrow well the ground
as plowed each day. and will try to
explain why this should give best
results. Almost every season some
rain falls during harvest or later in
the season. so that, as a rule, the
stubble ground turns quite moist: !:
and believing the old proverb, "A
bird In hand is worth two in the
BUSH" I think this should be har.
rowed at once. for 1t Is surprising
how rapidly newly plowed land will
dry out even in the fall.
Then regarding the holding Of
snow, We are told that 1t takes seven
inches OF snow to make one inch of
water. SO 1t can be seen that even
very roughly plowed land would not
gain a very great amount Of water.
and all snow falling In a melting con.
ditlon will soak In whether smooth or
rough. Then generally the snow.
when 1t does begin to melt in the
spring goes quickly. and the ground
still being frozen the water must
either run of or walt to be evap-
Grated.
! must admit that my experience
and observation has left me little
faith In snow as a source OF mois.
ture. Then. again. In our district we
are troubled with early frosts In the
fall. SO that having stubble land har.
rowed down all ready for the seeder
is most decided advantage In help
ing us to get our wheat early. thus
bettering our chances Of having our
wheat grade No. l hard Oats and
barley may be sown later and still
escape the frost.
My advice to farmers Is therefore to
harrow well each days plowing.

FARM NOTES.

The drains should be properly laid
out and carefully graded.
Be a manufacturer. by converting
the grain and hay grown upon your
farm into finished products.
Don't sell hay and grain from your
land. 1t is poor farming and will make
both you and your land poor.
When clover can be grown profit
able crops can be grown and the land
kept up by clover and lime.
II your plants are tall and spindly
thin them out. Do not be afraid to
cut--go at them courageously.
Rich horse manure and urine from
grain.fed cattle is far superior to fer
ti!izers and very much cheaper.
Truckers prefer rotted horse ma
nure for vegetables. as It is finer
richer and can be spread easily.
The only way to decrease the
amount Of smut In corn Is to pluck
of the smut.balls and burn them.
Good seed. good cultivation, good
comon sense are pretty good com
bination. II good crops are desired.
1t is a great thing to know Just
when a plant needs water. 1t Is q
matter that requires close observa
tion.
String beans should be drilled In
double rows six inches apart with
Just enough space between to allow
for cultivation.
Keep up the warfare on weeds In
the cornfields these hot days, when
soil moisture needs to be conserved
to Its utmost limit.
