Conserving Moisture.

1t is a well know fact that ground
which is kept loose on top will evap-
crate much less water than asoil
which is packed on top, says an
eastern exchange. The moisture
which escapes into the air is abso-
lutely lost so far as the plants grow
Ing that particular field are con-
cerned, and if anything can be done
to hold this moisture in the ground
so that it may reach the roots OF
the growing crop, it 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 farm
er in the country, and the farmer
showed him a field of wheat which
illustrated this by narrowing in a
remarkable manner.
A storm had passed over that Sec
ton of the country and about one
and a half inches of rain had fallen.
1t had been a dashing shower and
hadpackedthe surface of the ground
considerably. The grain was from 4
to 6 inches high and the farmer had
been advised to harrow the ground
20 prevent evaporation. He sem his
Tired MAI to do the work, who
h1cthed onto the harrow and dragge
it d%iagonally across the field of
wheat and then around the outside
of the field from five to six times.
He then became Disguised with the
work because it appeared that he
was dragging out SO much of the
grain and reported the fact to the
farmer who ordered the work discon
rued.
By the time the grain had head
ed the marks of the harrow could
lie plainly seen. The place where
it had been dragged diagonally across
the field produced grain at least s
or 10 inches higher than that on
either side which had not been har-
rowed, and along the edges of the
Held the grain was in a likecondi-
tion. The grain on the field hal had
MT been touched with the harrow
was not to be compared with the
narrowed grain, either in appearance
SIC of plants or heads of grain. The
yield from the narrowed portion was
PRACTICALLY double that from the UNI
portion.
1t simply shows that the harrow
ing and l%oosening of the surface soil
'hough it did destroy some of
the plants, conserved the moisture
and benefited those plants that wer
left in such Il marked degree that
1t greatly increased the yield from
that field and shows that the prac-
tice could be employed to advantage
by all farmers. Inter Mountain
