Narrowing Wheat to
Conserve Moisture
Written by E. 3. House, Engineer,
Colorado Experiment Station,
Fort Collins, Colorado.

II is a well known fact that ground
which is kept loose on top will evap-
crate much less water than a soil
which is packed on top. The mols-
ture which escapes in to the air is alb.
solutely lost, so far as the plants
growing in that particular field are
concerned, and II anything can be-
done to hold this moisture in the
ground so that 1t may reach the roots
OF the growing crop, II Is OF course
the thing to strive for, and will prove
a benefit to the plant growing in the
field
Some years ago one of the repre-
sentatives from the Agricultural Col
lege was visiting an up.to-date farmer
in the country, and the farmer showed
him field of wheat which illustrated
this narrowing in a remarkable man.
ner.
A storm had passed over that sec.
ton Of the country and about one and
half inches of rain had fallen. It
had been a dashing shower and had
packed the surface of the ground con.
siderably. The grain was from four
to six inches high, and the farmer
had been advised to harrow the
ground to prevent evaporation, He
sent his hired man to do the work,
who hitched on 10 the harrow and
dragged 1t diagonally a2rosS the field
of wheat. and then around the outside
of the field some five or sly times
He then became Disguised with the
work because ii appeared that he was
dragging out so much of The grain
and reported the fact TO thu farmer
who ordered the work discontinued.

across the field produced grain a
least eight or ten inches higher thai

Il simply shows that the harrowin

plants, conserved the moisture an

These diseases arise almost wholly
from the process of straining the
human machine. They may be due to

The cemetery committee Of the Civic
Club, of which Miss Teckla Fundenberg
is chairman, deserves much credit and
praise for the tremendous amount of
work which has been done there in the
past week or two. Much of the accu-
mulated leaves and broken limbs and
twigs from trees have been removed,
lots cleared and paths cleaned, which
has greatly improved the appearance of
the city of the dead.
Mr.. Edgar W. Young, an attorney of
Baltimore city, will be one of the speak
ers at the Memorial services at Deer

speaker, and one of the rising Young

John W. Young, Clerk Of the Circuit
Court for Allegany county at Cumber-

will act as chairman.
Tha most astonishing report that the
current campaign, remarkable in so
many respects, has developed is that
which accredits Hon. David Z. Dick,
formerly of Homecoming, now Of Balti-
more, with leaving his republican,
party and mounting the democratic
stump for Champ Clark. His friends
here do not admit that it IS a sign of an
early call bv the millennium, but if Clark
should not be nominated Dick will again
be found licking the democratic party.
1t is reported that his brother-R. A. L.
Dick, now of New York, is promoting
the candidacy of eX-Gov. LaFollette for
the republican presidential nomination.
