FOR SAVING MOISTURE
Type OF Soil Should Determine
Depth Of Flowing.
Certain Kinds Of Pows on Market
Which Have Tendency to Thor
oushIy Mix Soil From Bottom
and Top Of Furrow Slice.

CBy ALVIN KEYsER. Colorado Agricul-
tural College)
The question OF whether land
should be plowed deeply or not is
largely a question of the type Of soil
with which one has to work. II the
soil is quite sandy. much shallower
plowing will give better results than
II the soil is a silt loan, a clay loan
or adobe. Deep plowing should be
performed for certain definite pur-
poses; chief among these is making
deep reservoir to catch the water
that falls. A sandy soil does not need
such treatment because water pene-
trates very sandy soil with very
little difficulty without the deep plow-
ing. Such a soil is also sufficiently
loosened and aerated for crop grow
ing purposes. On heavier soils. how
ever, such as the silt loans, clays.
clay loans and adobes, deep plowing
is Of decided advantage. 1t enables
the precipitation obtained to pene-
trate the soil In which humus is
blended. AS consequence deep plow-
ing on the heavier soils is always OF
advantage II II is done sufficiently
long before the crop is put In to allow
nature through time and rainfall to
properly compact the furrow slice.
Such deep plowing is usually best ac-
complished by gradually increasing
the depth. although there is no great
damage done on ordinary soils by
going down deeply at once.
There are certain types Of plows
on the market which have a tendency
to thoroughly mix the soil from the
bottom and the top of the furrow
slice. Such plows can be used with
safety to plow as deep as desired and
do It at once. observing the precau-
ton given above. viz, plowing a con-
siderable period prior to the planting
OF crops.
Flowing is best done when the soil
contains a degree OF moisture which
is Just right to cause It to pulverize
we'll when thrown out by the plow.
II plowed In this condition deep
plowing works no serious injury on
the soil; in fact, It usually works a
benefit. Deep plowing when the soil
is very dry and lumpy unless fol-
lowed by propitious rains. usually

INCREASED VALUE OF FARMS
Census Bureau Gives Aggregate In tho
Arid and seml-Arld Regions az
s1o,4ss, 10000

The arid and semi-arid regions make
remarkable showing In farm values,
according to the census taken last
year.
A bulletin recently Issued by the
census bureau shows that the aggre-
gate value OF farm land in the sec
tions named is s1O,4SS, 100000. This
enormous value is all the more re-
markable because Of the contrast with
the $3,249, ,00O.0 indicated by the CEN
sus of 1900.
The value of farm land in the arid
and semi-arid regions in 1910 was
nearly half that of all the farm land
in the United States ten years before
that year. Whether values OF this
kind In other parts OF the country
Increased In the same proportion or
not, II is evident that they made a
big advance; and from II all one may
form an Idea Of the vast growth In the
country's wealth from this source.
The census report should open the
eyes OF people In the east and middle
west to the Importance OF that part
OF the country which lies west OF the
ninety-eighth meridian. II forms
nearly half the area OF the national
domain outside Alaska and the insular
possessions: and the great increase In
farm land values In ten years sug-
gests the Importance OF the part It
will play In the national development
Of the future.
