Corn as a Dry Farm Crop.

'' -
In all the dry.farming areas the con-
servation of the rainfall in the soil
where it becomes available to growing
crops is the, keystone ..of. successful
agricultural operations.
This is generally done by the cult
vation of the Soil during the entire
growing If no crop is pro-
duced'' on the land this operation is
called summer fallow or summer Gull
ture. Over most of the dry farming
area nearly If not as good as good
grain crops can be grown following
a cultivated crop as. after the summer
fallowed land.
When the bare fallow system is used
a whole year elapses without any re-
turns either on the investment or for
the labor performed. If a cultivated
crop can be grown with as good crops
following it should more than pay it's
expense which will consist of the cost
of seed, planting and harvesting; the
cultivation would have to be done
anyway SO this should not be counted
against the cost of production of a
crop of corn. Corn is prominently

abundance of cheap food; End, it

a heating influence on tile winds that
blow across it. This may have a
very beneficial effect on surrounding
crops when the temperature is near
the 100 degree mark.

Fifteen inches of rainfall is sufi-
Gent moisture for growing 40 bushels
of wheat and SO bushels of corn per
acre. That is, provided that it all
gets into the soil and is then kept
there till the wheat or corn needs it.
One.half pound of dried weeds per
square yard of surface takes up
enough moisture to reduce the yield
of wheat 20 bushels per acre and corn
"a bushels. The weeds take the mois-
ture that is in the soil where the crop
can get it. Examine the field of grain,
measure of a square yard, cut all tho
weeds, weigh them, and see if there
are not enough of them to very mater
tally affect the yield. Don't guess at
it but actually cut the weeds and
weigh them. The time to get the real
reduction that they will make is at
harvest, IS those that are growing
now will take up a good deal of mois-
ture before the grain is ripe and will
gain a good many pounds in weight.

afternoon when the Hope Nuts took

ball game by a score of Q to3 Burn
er for the Nuts pitched a good game
and, but for the rotten support of
Johnson at short and G. G.. Warner
at second, might have scored a shut
out. Farris did the receiving in his
usual capable manner. Hanson on
the initial sack and Fead on third
played major league ball. Hedding
starred in left and two of Fishers
team held down the other two fields
very creditably. The Nuts were es-
pecially strong with the stick, Hedding
garnering in four home runs (when
his pipe went OUT. The Man-Tigers
put up a very superior article of ball,
but the Nuts had it on them and
flched the hog-meat. Supper was
served at 6 O'Clock after which an
other game was played by the same
teams, resulting in another victory
for the Nuts, score q to 8. After
the ball game the large crowd ad-
iourned to Mr.. Jensen's barn where
the big event was held. Carpenters

wool, butter and eggs; commodities
that a always be turned into cash
or its equivalent. The b%y-products of
live stock (manure) should go back
onto the land to replenish the dimin-
ishing supply of humus and fertiliz-
ing elements to essential to large
yields.
The second essential to corn culture
is a conviction that 1t will pay to grow
live stock OF the corr crop produced
and a determination to grow corn as
their chief feed in spite of adverse cir
cumstanees. In order to be successful
in growing corn on a dry farm the &c.
lection of the proper variety is essen
tial. In western North Dakota and
eastern Montana, Squaw, Gehu, King,
Phillip and TRUMP will probably
prove the best flint varieties while
Golden Dent and Northwestern Dent
will probably prove the best dent var
ieties. Good seed is very important.
1t should always terminate strong
and IS percent or better.
The time to seed is from the 10 to
the IS Of May in a we'll prepared seed
bed which has been MANFRED and
plowed the fall before and which has
been narrowed at intervals from the
time the soil has thawed out in the
spring until the time of seeding.
Thorough cultivation is very import
ant as it warns the soil, decreases
evaporation of soil water, and forces
the corr ahead very rapidly. On dry
farms ri should be cultivated as
soon as possible after every rain in
order to bottle all water possible in
the soil. AS soon as the corr is cut
the land should be disced lightly but
it should not be plowed. Should any
heavy soaking rains come after this
in the fall the land should again be
narrowed. In the spring wheat should
be sown as early as possible but very
rarely should the Orr land be plowed
before seeding wheat.

Thinks |. G. Strike
Was Ill Advised
ARCHBISHOP KEANE HOPES
MEN WILL RETURN TO
THEIR WORK.
RADICAL CONTROL
Has Made Thorough Canvass of the
Situation and Is Persuaded That
Company Cannot Yield

ut Is unfortunate that men VINO
have local interest allow the IRE
sponsible to secure control. They DO
that by neglecting to attend meetings
and to elect the conservative and
careful to office" said Most Rev.
James ]. Keane, archbishop of Du-
buque, In an interview last night at
the home of Rev Father ]. j. Haniey,
when asked his opinion on the strike
OF the Illinois Central Railway shop
men.
II am exceedingly sorry that the
men have been persuaded TO go out,
he continued, las know from very
thorough canvass Of the situation
through the west, where the matter,
is being agitated, that the vast ma
jority of them were not in favor OF it.
Not only do the men neglect to elect
to office the conservative and care
full, but by their inattention to the
interests of the unions they permit
the radical element to advocate and
strive for the introduction OF i'm
practical principles which are unjust
to vested interests of unionism.
Some of the matters at issue in the
present strike are radical, so radi-
cal, indeed, that 1t is difficult to see
how the railroad company can yield
without captivating They demand
an an instance, the time of service
and not merit must determine
I whether man is to be promoted or
not; secondly, that mans personal
record should not at all influence
those who are to employ him; and,
thirdly, that the entire body should
be made to suffer in order to promote
the presumed interests of partieu-
lar craft
Il believe in unionism; believe
that men have perfect right to
unite to protect their interests, just
as capital combines to promote its
interests. Men have perfect right
to wage which will be sufficient to
support their families in comparative
comfort and to make some provision,
provided they be economical and In /
dustrious, for the morrow. But the
good which unionism serves to pro-
mote cannot possibly justify the In
PRODUCTION into the practical conduct
of unionism of principles which are
unjust. fear that some of the prin-
ciples with which they are contend
Ing are such, and | believe that the
superior minded, upon deliberation,
will have the courage to repudiate
what is wrong and to abandon a con-
tention for what is just | expect
that within a short time goodly
number of men who have local inter-
ests will have the courage to return
to work"
Archbishop Keane is an able mind
ed man and speaks upon the strike
situation after having made a careful
study of the controversy which Is
now so disturbing to the commercial
interests of the localities affected by
the strike. He spoke with firmness
which indicated his true convictions
on the subject, and was very en-
phatic in scoring the inattentiveness
OF the conservative element of the
union In not bringing their influ-
ence to bear to avert the strike. -
