A good fire was started, and the fu-

TO SUCCEED IN DRY FARMING
Farmer Cannot Prosper With Grain
Alone-Llve Stock Must Be Made
the Basis Of Production.

Dean E. A. Burnett Of the Univer-
sity OF Nebraska says dry farming can.
not prosper In the great plains area
as a grain farming system. The risk
on grain is too great In dry season.
Live stock must be the basis OF pro-
duction. 1t is true that grazing lands
do not produce as much revenue or
profit per acre as good crops Of grain.
but neither do they entail such heavy
losses in bad years. A large amount
Of water can be stored when 1t falls
in anything but light showers. At
North Platte water has been stored
as deep as fifteen feet in good years
and from four to SIX feet In drier
years. The season Of 1910 was. how.
ever. very unfavorable to storing wa.
ter and only thirteen bushels Of wheat
were harvested from land which had
previously grown from thirty to forty.
six bushels. No grain at all was
harvested from land that was cropped
in 1910 1t is likely that the best re.
suits will be obtained by keeping
three-fourths OF the land in grass and
devoting the balance to forage crops.
The farming unit must probably be
large but that does not mean that 1t
should contain much pillow land.
The homesteader as a rule is not
prepared to take advantage Of the
best scientific knowledge in the man
agement Of his land. Deep plowing
and summer following land take horse
power, frequently far in excess Of
that available to the homesteader.
The silo and the modern dairy COW
are frequently beyond his reach. and
for this reason again We should dis
count the largest possibilities OF these
areas when we seek to determine
