Iowa An Alfalfa State

It is announced by the Ames
college authorities that Iowa
will this year produce four
times as much alfalfa as she
grew last year. Moreover, the
crop is declared to be of excel
lent quality and experiments
show that Iowa can produce
alfalfa the same as any other
state. It has been but a few
years since it was thought that
this state could not grow sugar
beets. Yet there are now
many farmers in Iowa who
make heavy profits from this
crop. Iowa will have similar
experience with alfalfa, only it
will be on a much larger scale.
The value of alfalfa as a feed
and as a money maker is well
recognized in the west. But it
is taking some time to convince
the Iowa farmer that alfalfa
will do as we'll in Iowa as it
will any place else in the world.

Weather Crop Bulletin
For the week ending July 81
Des Moines. Iowa.

Des Moines, Iowa.
The past week was unusually
cool; the average daily deficien-
cy of temperature ranging
from 6 to 10 degrees. The av-
erage precipitation was much
above the normal, except over
the three southern tiers of
counties, where it was very dry
up to Saturday night. La the
three northern tiers of coun-
ties, and in portions Of the CEN
trail sections the rainfall was
heavy; nearly all stations re
porting more than 200 inches,
and several more than 800
inches. The first four days of
the week were, however, clear
and dry, ard rapid progress
was made in haying and har-
vesting. Threshing is now
general in the southern coun-
ties, and early reports indicate
yields much in excess Of the
average of past years. In the
northern sections where the
late rains were heavy, oats are
badly lodged and will be diff
cult to harvest. The rains will
also prevent work in the fields
in that section for two or three
days, but they have been Of
great benefit to corn. pastures,
potatoes, spring sown grasses,
gardens and fruits. Corn
made good growth during the
week, even though the weather
was cool, and the crop is in
good condition and improving
daily.

TYPHOID Turks
United States Geological SUR

port OF "Underground
Waters for Farm Use"
WELLS

The rural sections, long con-
sidered ideal so far as concerns
che health of their inhabitants,
nave been dealt a blow by ply
sician Investigators who main
tain that two. thirds, of the
cases of typhoid fever in the
city owe their origin to insani-
tary conditions in the coun ~
and to polluted water supplies.
Farms, which are generally
remote from towns, cities, or
other areas Of congested popr-
lation, would seem to be almost
ideally situated for obtaining
pure and wholesome water, but
in reality polluted water is ex-
ceedingIy common on them and
typhoid fever rates are usually
greater in country districts
than in cities. Typhoid fever
is now almost universally be-
lleved to be transmitted solely
through drink or food taken
|into the stomach, and is es-
pecially liable to be communi-
Gated by polluted waters obtain
ed from shallow wells near
spots where the discharges of
typhoid patients have been
thrown upon the ground and
subsequently carried down
through the soil and to the
wells, and it is doubtless princi-
pally this fact that accounts
for the disease being so com
mon in farming regions.
On g great many farms the
we'll is located at a point that
may be convenient to the dwell
ing, without any regard for the
possibility of the pollution of
the we'll water through seepage
from barn or cess pool CT
through the circulation of wa
ter underground. Information
relating to the underground
movement of water is particu-
larly valuable, and on this ac-
count the United States Gaolo-
gical Survey is distributing a
report on the suhjsct-W Water
Supply Paper 255 -"Under-
ground Waters for Farm Use,"

mand for this publication has
