In growing grain for fodder, more
applications of water will be given
during the early growth, as the object
is to secure a rank growth of straw,
and the fodder is cut when the grain
is in the milk. The number of irri-
cations for this purpose varies from
one in the colder climates to twelve
or fifteen in the hot, dry climate of
Arizona.
The quantity of water to be applied
at each irrigation depends upon the
number of irrigations, depth of soil,
nature of subsoil, the purpose for
which the grain is grown, the condi-
tion of the crop, climatic conditions,
and, from practical standpoint, the
length between water turns, the avail
able supply, method of application,
the requirements of other crops, the
expertness of the irrigator, and the
length of time the field has been un-
dei irrigation and cultivation.
The amount of water applied to the
crop for the first irrigation varies
greatly. As a general rule, the soil
is driest at the time of the first ir-
rigation, and more water will be re-
ouired to irrigate properly at this
time than subsequently. 1t is al
ways safe to assume that the ranker
the growth of straw the greater will
be the quantity of water required
at the time the head is making. Wa
ter for irrigation is always plentiful
during the early spring, but at the

will bring multiplied returns for
months. Not only is the driver who
is entered into such a competition
after the particular monetary reward
offered, but personal pride prompts
him to continually strive for a better
record than his fellows This spirit
will effect great saving in his work,
for he is unconsciously learning that
conscientious effort is his one means

The bonus system for motor truck
drivers, such as Is now in general
use in England and parts of Europe,
is meeting with favor among Amer
lean truck owners and manufac-
turers. The system is a simple one,
merely providing extra compensation
for those drivers who establish good
records of economy and efficiency in
the operation of their vehicles. Many
manufacturers have gone on record
as being in favor of the adoption of
the plan in this country, declaring
that the extra cost to truck owners
is more than made up in lowered
maintenance costs and longer life for
the vehicles.
The truck driver Is a mighty i'm
portant factor in successful motor
truck operations. and any system
whereby his carefulness of his en-
ployer's interests and his efficiency
are increased will surely be well
coined by American business men.
While motor truck drivers are, as a
class as high grade workmen as can
be found in the world, they are
bound to do better work with the
added incentive of a reward for
greater efficiency and economy The
same rule holds true in every bust
ness-the well-paid, appreciated en-

CAMP FIELDER, Sea Grit. Aug. s..
The division organization, as we'll as
that of the Second Brigade of the New
Jersey National Guard, is to be wiped
out entirely, as far as recognition by
the war department is concerned, If
the provisions of circular issued by
Secretary of War Lindley Garrison
are enforced.
According to the circular, the war
department, after January 1, will not
recognize militia organizations In any
State unless they conform to the re-
quirements of the regular United
States army. Neither will 1t continue
it's appropriations to such organiza-
items.
The Dick act, which was passed by
Congress about tt N years ago, carried
with it an annual appropriation OF
50, 900, 600 for militia organizations of
the United States. This money, &C
cording to the act, was to be appor-
toned only to State militia whose or
gsnizations conformed in every re-
spect to those of the regular army.
Full enforcement of these require
ments was found to be impracticable
at the time of the acts passage, and
extensions of time in which to bring
the organizations to the set standard
were granted.
Secretary Garrison has decided that
ten years has been ample time III
which to effect the changes desired in
the various States, and he has or
dered that no further appropriations
be made to those organizations which
do not now conform to requirements,
and that no official recognition be
taken of any organization until 1t
does so conform.
The First brigade, composed of the
Newark. Paterson and Jersey city
regiments, will be unaffected by the
order. None of the regimental organ
izations will be affected, except that
the number of the commanding OIL
GERS staff will be slightly cut.
