nounced them good.
When this republic was born a
new order in the management OF
State affairs was proposed for Amer
lea. Democracy-the rule of the
people-had not at that time an
honored name. The story of its
career in France was no flattering
recommendation and the Liberty,
Equality and Fraternity Of the
French Revolution had produced
nothing but discord, disorder and
civil strife. Though 1t was then
stained bloody, the trainers of the
Constitution and the signers Of the
Declaration of independence in the
wisdom, courage and foresight saw
in what had been a disastrous expert
ment in other lands great possibiii-
ties for good. In accepting the
principle of a government by the
people they sought for means to
civilize it and to Christianize it and
thereby to control It; in finding
them them they secured for the new
republic the two great blessings OF
civil government, power without des-
potism and liberty without anarchy.
Washington declared that "of all
the dispositions and habits which
lead to political prosperity religion
and morality are indispensable sup
ports" Religion, then, according to
the Father of our country, Is an es-
sential to the prosperity Of the ma
ton. II is the element which added
to the authority OF the State and the
freedom Of the individual makes for
the general welfare and secures for
a people the due respect for law and
order. the reverence and obedience
to higher powers so necessary for the
harmony and peace and general
well-being of the community as a
whole. In granting and guarantee
ing the independence OF State,
Church and individual, in defining
their relations one TO the other, and
adjusting them so that they could
operate unhampered in their own
spheres, in protecting the constitu-
tional rights OF each and recognizing
certain independence for the pro-
motion of the common happiness and
progress, the government born on
the fourth of July, 1915, has secured
blessings Of civil and religious lib
erty for a free people In a free land.
The church has grown here In its
vigorous life and flourished into
grandeur OF proportion, and the
country has benefited thereby; II the
one feels in her heart Of hearts graft
tude for the freedom she enjoys, she
knows that her debt to the other is
more than repaid by her countless,
manifest contributions to the public
good, in temporals as well as In
spirituals.

the Champlain Assembly. His Ex-

A new CROP
FOR DBY FARMERS

In a bulletin soon to be pub
lished by the Arizona Expert
ment Station. Prof. R. w. Cloth
Ter introduces to the world a
new and extremely valuable
drouth resistant crop.
The Holbrook news., 1912-11-29

In the bulletin written by Prof
R w. Clothier, of the Univer
sity of Arizona and soon to b.
published by the Arizona expert
ment station. entitled DRY
Farming in the Arid Southwest, ,
Prof. Clothier will introduce tt
the world a new dry farming
crop which has wonderful posi-.
bilities for the arid section of the
world having a short rain peri
cd. This crop is the tepary bean,
obtained from the Papago In
dams by director R. A. Forbes,
of the Arizona experiment sta
ton, in the spring of 1909, and
placed in the hands of Prof.
Clothier at that time to be tested
for its dry farming possibilities.
Writing of this bean, Prof. Cloth
Ter says:
AFTER three years of expert
menting with it I am prepared to
say that it is one of the most
wonderful plants ever presented
to the dry farming public. If it
has a growing season of Is days,
it will make a fair crop and if it
has 80 days, it will make a good
crop. If it is struck by a drouth
it will ripen the pods already set.
and when the drouth breaks it
will set and ripen a new crop if
it has five weeks in which to do
it. 1t 1911, beans planted June
ID were struck with drouth July
20 after but 3.34 inches of water
had penetrated the soil. The
drouth continued until August
25 and was accompanied by ex-
tremely hot weather, the Fab
renheit thermometer frequently
reaching a maximum of los to
108 degrees and averaging SO
degrees as maximum for the
entire period.
BEANS YIELD WELL.
Notwithstanding these adj
verse conditions, these beans
ripened an average of 319 pounds
of seed per acre during this
drouth, Then, when the rains
required, the beans again began
setting pods and matured an adj
ditional 456 pounds of seeds be-
tween September 1 and October
Is, on 4.97 inches more of pene-
trating rainfall, making a total
yield of IT'S pounds per acre for
the season. Moisture determi-
nations in the soil made before
planting showed that there was
not over 5 inches of water avail
able for plant production in the
first four feet of soil, and none in
the subsoil below that depth,
when the beans were planted.
When we consider the extremely
dry character of the atmosphere
in the arid southwest with its
consequent great power to alb
sorb water from soils snd plants
these yields under such condi-
lions are remarkable. The pink
bean, which has a reputation it.
self as a drouth resister made
nothing whatever during the
drouth and only 100 pounds per
acre for the entire season under
exactly the same conditions.
AVERAGE YIELD LARGE.
During three years of expert
mentation IL plots of one quart
er acre each of tepary beans have
been grown and the average yield
on all of them has been 473
pounds per acre. Many of the
plots have had extremely poor
stands and on many of them the
soil was so dry at planting time
that the beans remained in the
ground six weeks before enough |
rain occurred to sprout them and
bring them up. Eleven similar
plots of pink beans grown dur
ing the same period averaged |
only lao pounds per acre under
the same conditions. Three
The Holbrook news., 1912-11-29

tepary beans averaged 467 pounds
per acre with a poor stand. In
1910 the total water penetrating
the soil during the growing sea-
son was 9.34 inches and the soil
had received no water other than
this since the preceding August.
Tepary beans averaged $40
pounds per acre with extremely
poor stands in that year. In 1911
a small amount of arin had pen
etrated the soil since the pre-
ceding August but it had all
dried out at planting time. The
penetrating rain during the grow
ing season was 8. 81 inches. Four
plots of tepary beans averaged
sgt pounds per acre on this rain
fall while two plots that had three
and one-half inches of irrigating
water added to the soil two
months before planting time
averaged TIA pounds per acre.
Pink beans averaged 81 and 100
pounds per acre respectively I'M
der similar conditions These
yields certainly give this new
crop an enviable place among
the dry farming crops of the
world.
DIFFERS FROM OTHER BEANS
The plant is entirely different
from the common cultivated VI
rieties of beans. The chief diff
erences appearing to the layman
are a small wiry vine and long
narrow leaflets. The botanist
finds other differences which
need aot be discussed here. Pro-
lessor G. F. Freeman of the Ar
iona Experiment station who
began investigations with this
bean in 1910 after the writer had |
grown it one year by dry farm
ing methods and director Forbes
had demonstrated its value as an
irrigated crop has written a bo-
tanical description of it in bulle-
tin 68 of the Arizona Experiment
station. He Identifies it as Phase
clus acutifolius, described by Asa
Gray and suggests the name la
tifolius for the variety we have
under cultivation.
The plant grows wild in noun
tain valleys and canyons of south
ern Arizona and northern Mex
leo, and was no doubt domesti-
Gated by the Indians in pre-his-
toric times. In the words of Di-
rector Forbes, 1T comes to us as
a bit of the wreckage of an an
Gent agriculture drifting down
from remote and unknown times.
