HARDPAN

That the hardpan occasionally
found at various depths in some
Of the soil in Harney Valley is
not serious fault is certainly
gratifying, not only to the farm
er but all who are interested in
the development of the country.
Prof. H. D. Scudder of the State
Agricultural College has exploded
the "bugaboo" that has caused
timid people who are not familiar
with said conditions to hesitate
about taking hold of farming in
localities where hardpan is found.
The so-called hardpan in this
section is formed by particles
washed down by the precipita-
ton from time to time and the
small amount of alkali together
with lime has formed a cement
that can be broken up or
melted" in a very simple man
ner. Conservation of the moist
ure is the solution Of the prob
lem. AS the moisture is saved
and penetrates deeper, this hard
pan is dissolved and with con-
slant cultivation it will dissap-
pear entirely. 1t is not a serious
matter at all and by simply pre-
pairing the soil properly this
drawback is overcome.
t. B. Hill, who is farming 140
acres near Waverly has found
that the hardpan varies with the
seasons. At one time he found
the hard pan at a depth Of a lit
tie over six inches, but the next
season after cultivation and a
greater rainfall he found it on
the same ground to be at a depth
of Ia inches.
1t will be seen by this demon
stration that the success of far
mers in Harvey county is a mat
ter of water conservation and
cultivation. That's the secret
