t. keep the water from flooding the
road. If when the plo Hlg and harrow
ing are completed, the farmer would
take a Fresno scraper and take down
the knobs and fill up depressions with
the dirt thus removed, in the course of
year or two he would change the
field from one hard to irrigate to one
exceedingly easy for irrigation, and he
would find that practically one-half the
amount of water that he was compell-
ee touse on the first place is ample
after the field has been smoothed in
this way. More than this, he will find
that his crops yield better. for when
an excess OF water is applied to the low
spots, the crop at these places in the
field $ always injured and it is oot an
exaggeration to say that as much
damage to the crop is done by forcing
the water up to the high spots as
would be done by aIowidg these high
spots to suffer from lack of
water.
A word of advice now, for the pre-
sent season will soon be upon US. As
you irrigatc your fields this spring and
summer stake the high spots, driving
the stakes down so that they will not
interfere with harvesting and
mark on these stakes about how much
too high the lend is at that point; then
after the crop is harvested in the fall
see to 1t that these high spots are re-
moved. and. after plowing, smooth the
surface with great care. When you
stop to consider that this work is per
,manQnt Improvement and need not be
done year after year, when once it has
been accomplished, and when you con-
sider that during every dry year the
cross are injured for lack of water, it
seems that every entalligent farmer
would realize the fact that it will be
paying proposition to thoroughly
prepare his ground so that it vii! irri,
in the best possible manner See tosit
that the p'owed field is in perfect
stgte Of tilth before the seeds plant
ed. for this careful preparation is what
will put the bushels into the bin in the
fall.

Inch has beea said concerning the
ind &SSed duty of water, and it has
be5X taid that the farmer has been
uAaah huch more water thar is neces-
Sc pst Of the articles concerning
the duty Of water take up the proper
ties of the soil the manner of cul-
tivation for conservation purposes, the
manner of applying water. and
show that in general way, all affect
the duty OF water, ana that proper cu!-
tiyation and, proper application of wa
ter will increase the duty Of water from
100 TO 2l0 per cent.
1t has often occurred to the writer
that this means very little to the aver
age farmer, in that it does not tell him
what he does that he should not do,
nor exactly what he might do to in
crease the efficiency of his water
supply.
The thing of first Importance to the
farmer is the preparation of the field
for irrigation. He should see to it that
the high spots are removedI and that
the low spots are filled; in other words
he should see thgt the surface of his
field is smooth, and here is where the
ordinary farmer falls down. After
blowing and narrowing his field he per-
haps runs a drag over it, and then
seeds it, leaving ridges and hollows,
holes aud knolls, consequently when he
irrigates the field it is necessary for
him to almost drown the low spots in
order to wet the high ones. Water
will often be found from one to two
feet deep i'll places in tbs field. In
driving along the road one Otter sees

JURY GETSF|CHT
To TAX RAILWAYS
City's Effort to Assess Right
of-Way of Seaboard and
Georgia Argued.

The city's long fight to assess the
right Of way property of the Seaboard
Air Line and the Georgia railroad along
DeKalb avenue has been taken before a
jury for the first time today in second
division Of superior court The action
was the Seaboard's injunction suit to
restrain the city from levying for sew
erage improvements
The case, or one similar to it. has
been to the supreme court and the rail
road company was returned a partial
victor. Temporary injunctions were
sustained by the high court.
While the actual tracts of the Sea =
board are not involved in the present
suit, James L. Mayson. city attorney,
expects to impress upon the court the
existence of the Atlanta charter
amendment passed at the last session
of the legislature, giving :he munich
patty the right to levy on portion of
the railroads tracks.
Judge w. d. Loving, Z. E. Pomeroy
and c. j. Simmons, Jr., appearing for
the Seaboard, argued that the railroad
company received no benefit from sew
erage improvements paralleling the
right of way.
