ATTEND TO
THE FALLOW

The practice of leaving the portion
OF the farm which is to produce next
years crop, uncrOpped during the
present season is now very generally
followed by dry land farmers. Since
these fields yield no returns while fall
low, 1t is important to SO handle this
land that the full advantage may
come with the succeeding crop.
The chief advantages which result
from following are: The accumula-
tiOn of moisture, the bringing into a
disable state of certain amount of
plant food in the soil, and the oppor-
tunity to kill weeds which may he
present. If the method of fallow
management on any farm does not
improve conditions along these three
lines, the practice ought to be re-
vised in some of it's particulars.
The first and most important bene-
fit to be sought is the accumulation
of the seasons rainfall. On the dry
farm, the moisture reservoir is the
lower soil layers. and this reservoir
ought to be stored to furnish the wa
ter needed for large yield the fol-
lowing year. In clay and loam soils,
it is easily possible to store seven or
eight inches of rainfall in the first
eight or ten feet of the soil. This
moisture, along with the early sum-
mer rainfall. practically insures u
good yield.
In order to prevent the loss of mois.
ture from Natures reservoir, a dam
has been provided, in the soil mulch.
A loose, dry layer on the surface pre-
vents the water from evaporating in
to the atmosphere. When the land
has been cultivated and a mulch es-
tablished, rain packs down the sur
face and re-establishes this contact
with the lower layers and the loss of
water is made possible as soon as
drying begins. After each rainy per-
iod, and as soon as the soil is dry
enough to pulverize properly, the fall
low should be given careful surface
tillage. This stops the loss of mois-
ture. as it prevents it from getting to
the surface where it can evaperate in
to the atmosphere. Tillage Ought to
be promptly given. When The dam
breaks. allowing the water to escape
from the storage reservoir, it is
promptly repaired. The surface
mulch is the dry farmers dam, and
Judith Gap journal. [volume] (Judith Gap, Mont.) 1908-19??, 1912-06-28

when its usefulness has been de-
strOyed by being packed by rains, it
ought to be repaired by cultivation
as soon as it is in condition. by all
means, carefully cultivate the fallow
at the close of the rainy season.
The fallOw condition is ideal for
making available the plant food in
the soil. With ample moisture pres
ent, we have all Of the necessary con-
ditiOns, heat, air and moisture, and
the organisms which make plant food
available are active. Conserve the
moisture in the fallow and so insure
the presence Of ample available food
to build next seasons crop.
The question OF weeds is rapidly
coming to he serious one on many
recently broken farms. Those pests
fail to get started on the native sod,
but increase rapidly on cultivated
land. Frequent and thorough cult
vation is the most economic method
of killing the weeds. The young
plants are easily destroyed and where
they are killed when small, there can
be no increase from seed formation.
Keep the weeds down OH the fields
and look out for the weeds around
the bitches and fences.

New settlers coming to purchase

to the agricultural possibilities of
this country. Now the new conner
can settle in the midst Of proven
farm country, where the farmers ask
AS high as $45 for their lands, and are
not anxious to sell. Every portion Of
this Bower ranch has either living
springs or running water OH it, and it
is therefore considered more valuable
for general farm purposes. All Of it
is fine land for grain and alfalfa.
