DRY FARMING AN
ASSURED SUCCESS
Expert Discusses Subject and
Refers to Success in Utah
For Past Two Years

In view of the past two years
of drought and the resultant 'ail-
ure or partial failure of crops,
some doubt as to the feasibility
of dry-farming in Wyoming has
been expressed. 1t is note
worthy fact that in those states
where dry-farming has been
practiced for a period of 40
years, the past two years of
scanty precipitation have been
followed by no especially disoc-
trous results. The reason Tor
this is not that they are more
favorably located than Wymoing,
but that they have reduced their
dry-farm methods to a science.
In fact, the State of Utah. for
example, has a lower annual pre-
cipitation than Wyoming. Then,
too, the larger part of this pre-
cipitation comes in the winter,
while in eastern Wyoming rs
per cent. of our moisture comes
when we need it most--that is,
during the growing season.
The past two years in Utah
have been exceedingly dry, and
yet comparatively few crop fail
ures have been reported. To the
contrary. yields of winter wheat
ranging from 20 to so and even
40 bushels to the acre were very
common. This ability to secure
, good crops under adverse condi-
tions, however, has not been ac-
quired without severe losses in
the past. In fact, former
J droughts were the school-mas-
tiers that compel the dry-farmers
of those sections to adopt the
D very best methods-in their farm
t practice. They learned that dry
farming was safe in regions
Y where the annual precipitation
t averaged IL inches. Some year,
it might be more; some years i
might be less. When moisture
came in excess it was stored vi
y for future use in time of drought
and when the drought came goo'
crops were raised. They learned
, too, that deep soils were essen
: tial to dry-iarming and that tn
= summer fallow and careful cuI
" tivation were vital par of tn
practice. Thus they have Sc

ERROR MADE IN
COUNCIL REPORT
Concerning Granting Of Pool
Hall License. James Robb
Discusses Amusements


granted to Jas. Robb and Robt. |
A. Thorley to conduct a pool hall
and bowling alley in this city.
Since the article was printed,
it appe rs that there was a mis-
understanding of the real facts,
the city council not having
granted a license for pool hall.
However, it granted a license
for an amusement place of some
character, some persons saying
it was for a skating rink others
that it was for a bowling alley.
The report as given in The
Record last week was from notes
taken from the minutes of the
city council, and were written
near the hour of IL o'clock p. m.
and very hurriedly. The city
recorder was present and made
certain statements regarding
pool tables, but he says that he
was commenting on a previous
application filed by other parties.
We have been unable to ar
range to see the minutes of the
council proceedings since the ar
ticle was published, to ascertain
if anything appears to make the
matter clear as to how the error,
if it was made by this paper
was brought ab2ut, but as the
question is one in which The
Record is not concerned, and as
the applicants themselves say
that it was not their intention to
apply for a pool hall license, we
gladly give our readers all the
Information at our disposal, and
take pleasure in giving space to
a letter from Mr.. Robb. who
takes the opportunity to discuss
the amusement question at some
length and in a common-sense
manner.
Mr.. Robb's letter follows:
Paragonah, June II, 1912.
Editor of Record,
Cedar City, Utah.
Dear Sir:
In the Record, issue of June
14th, | notice that the City
Council of Cedar City has grant
ed a license to Rob't. A. Thorle,
and me to conduct a pool hall ant
bowling alley in your city.
| wish you would correct tn
error, and make the matter clea
in your paper that Mr.. Thorle,
and | never apple for such
license. We lid, however, appl
for a license to conduct skatini
rink which we contemplate
building. In your columns yp
did not make mention of thi
fact. Either the city counc
misread our application or 20
were misinformed. While al
of the opinion that a pool hall c
bowling alley would not be OF
of place in your town and
properly conducted would be n
more harmful than dancing
checker playing. baseball, baskt
ball or any other game, shout
like the correction made with I'll
understanding that | am M
ready to go into that occupation
The pool hall. as you know, hi
been connected with the saloo
for such long time that mos
people think it disgrace to /
associated in that kind of bus
ness. This feeling, howeve
should not exist, If were
conduct such a place in you
town | should make it just a
respectable as the dance hall, Il
theatre, or the base ball game.
Yours truly,
