feeds on alfalfa and on six varieties
OF clover, including red and crimson.
1t is probable that the weevil was
first brought to this country in hay or
straw used In packing c~rockery or
nursery stock. 1t has no doubt been

that many western fruit orchards are
surrounded by fields of alfalfa or
sweet clover. The insects crawl into
the fruit packages, and are in this
way carried about. They also travel
IN hay or feed, and in this way are

means larger crops. Through the
use of smaller tracts the country dis

maintenance OF SOIL MULCH
important Operation After Land Has
Been Piowed to Prevent Mols-
ture Evaporation.

After the land. has been SO well
plowed that the rains can enter cas-.
lily. the next operation of Importance
In dry farming Is the making and
maintaining OF a soil mulch over the
ground to prevent the evaporation OF
water from the soil. For this pur-
pose some form of harrow Is most
commonly used. The oldest and best
known harrow Is the ordinary smooth.
ing harrow. which Is composed of iron
or steel teeth Of various shapes set
In a suit1bie frame. For dry-farm
purposes the implement must be so
made as to enable the farmer to set
the harrow teeth to slant backward
and forward. 1t frequently happens
that In the spring the grain Is too
thick for the moisture In the soil. and
II then becomes necessary to tear out
some of the young plants. For this
purpose the harrow teeth are set
straight. or forward. and the crop
can then be thinned effectively. At
other times 1t may be observed In the
led to the formation OF a crust over
the soil. which must be broken to let
the plants have full freedom Of
growth and development. This is &C.
complished by slanting the harrow
teeth backward. and the crust may
then be broken without serious in
jury to the plants.
