FORTUNE IN THE PUNcTuRE

A puncture in an automobile tire
isn't always misfortune. according
to the recent experience Of an autolst
at Grass Valley. New. The reason
for his philosophy may be explained
in the fact that while driving he sud.
denly heard report, and. leaving his
seat, he looked upon the spectacle Of
punctured tire and proceeded to
fix It. During the course Of his labors
he had occasion to step near the lit
tie stream OF water that was close
by. His eyes we're caught BY q sud.
den CLINT between the rocks. and.
STOPPING over. he picked up a gold
nugget that proved to be worth SO.
The nugget exactly fitted the cut in
the tire and caused the puncture.

Dry Farming Brings Results.


Some complaints have been made
that dry farming methods do not sue.
coed In very dry years and that hence
these methods are wrong. Plants will
not grow without some moisture. and
the season Of 1911 vas unusually sev.
ere In Its heat and drought because 1t
followed two other similar seasons i'm.
mediately. The preceding seasons
were not SO bad. but the rain came at
such time Of the year that there was
comparatively little moisture In the
soil during the growing periods. This.
however, should not argue against
the dry farming methods, as they are
simply good farming methods which
are applicable in greater or less de.
gree to every section Of the United
States. Dry farming methods do pro-
duce good results In three seasons out
Of five and are more likely to produce
results every year than any other
method which has been devised.-Rec-

USING MANURE ON DRY FARM
Essential That There Be suffieIent
Moisture to Dissolve Out All the
Plant Food.

Inc question whether fresh stable
manure should be applied on land
where the rainfall is SO small as to
make dry farming" necessary cannot
be answered Internationally. One
thing is very certain. ordinary stable
manure. worked into the top soil. will
In very dry climate. make the land
still drier, says the Northwestern
Stockman and Farmer. Manure can.
not benefit any soil unless there II
moisture enough to dissolve out the
plant food SO that 1t can be utilized by
growing plants Of whatever Is planted.
To merely spread 1t on the surface
will make 1t do more to keep tho
moisture in the soil; but the plant
food In manure will have a very poor
chance to benefit the growth of any
crop unless there is water enough to
dissolve out the elements of plant food
that will give value to manure. Where
the land is under irrigation. however.
the crops will get the benefit of all
the manure put on the land.
1t will be better plan in using
manure on such land to bulk 1t, and
keep 1t wet by frequent applications Of
abundant water and forking 1t over
often. I'LL 1t is wet all through and
kept so till 1t is In a pretty we'll rot.
ted condition. and then 1t will be very
beneficial. II we'll mixed with soil. And
the working Of thoroughly rotted ma
nure into dry soil will help to retain
the little moisture that rises from be-
low.
To get the greatest good from the
manure. 1t should be piled up In alter.
nate layers Of dirt and manure. kept
thoroughly wet. and then mixed well
all together and applied to the land.
This can be spread on the land and
narrowed In we'll with q disk harrow.
and whenever anything is planted the
best plan 10 to run over the land with
land roller that will compact the soil
as much as possible. Well.rotted ma.
nure Is always better than fresh on
land that keeps dry most Of the time.
In matter Of this sort. however. the
character Of the soil and local condi.
tions must govern to large extent.
There Is considerable difference In
both the soil and the climate in the
various parts Of the country where
the rainfall is very small, and every
one ought to make some tests for him.
self to determine Just what method
Is best. But Of one thing every one
can feel sure; that is. that the plant
food In no sort Of manure can be very
beneficial to growing crops unless
there Is sufficient moisture to dissolve
out the plant food and put II In shape
to be assimilated by a growing crop.
But 1t is safe to adopt. az q rule.
not to work into the soil In any dry
section any very bulky manure. 1t
will pay to take some trouble to bulk
1t up. and keep 1t 80 wet that 1t will
get pretty well rotted. Even In humid
parts OF the country light, dry manure
does very little good to growing crops.
and 1t is impossible to incorporate into
the soil any sort OF fresh manure 30

easy to assimilate.
