Supposing that man plow six or

be about three inches. becomes dry,
then the inevitable crust forms. one
or two inches thick; how much will
he have left for his crop? About one
inch. Is 1t any wonder the crop dries
out? On the other hand. II he plows
ten to twelve inches deep. he will have
six inches Of soil left for his crop be-

or eight weeks drought this crop will
have as much dirt to grow on as the
shallow piower gives his crops at the
start.
Packing or rolling increases the con.

promotes the formation OF crust in

new INCOME TAX
STARTS AT $4,000
Elaborate Provision for Gradu.
ated Payment System in
New Tariff Bill.

Washington, d. C.-lncluded In the
Democratic tariff revisit bill Ia an
income tax section. whi,L would re-
quire every resident OF the United
States who earns more than $4,000 a
year to pay tax Of ! per cent. on
his earnings in excess OF the exemp-
ton. This would not compel the man
who earns only $4,000 to pay tax.
but It would demand that one who
earned s4,l00, for example, pay into
the government treasury an annual
tax OF ! per cent on 500. or 81.
The bill also would provide higher
rates OF taxation for persons with
larger incomes, adding surtax OF l
per cent. additional on earnings In ex-
cess OF $4,000; per cent. additional
on earnings In excess Of $50, 900, md 3
per cent. additional on earnings In eI.
cess OF 100000.
How surtax Would Be Imposed.
Under the surtaX provisions the man
who earns $4,000 would pay to the
government each year at the rate OF
! per cent. on $4,000 $4,000 exempt) +,
or $3.50. II he earns $4,000 he would
pay per cent on $4,000. and 2 per
cent. on $4,000, making his annual
tax $3.50. The person with $4,000
income would pay per cent. on sl6..
900 and per cent. on 100000 total
tax OF $3.50. The man with an income
OF 100000 would be required to pay
per cent. on $4,000. 2 per cent. on
100000. and per cent. on $4,000,
which would be $1,000. bringing his
total income tax to s2,260. Anyone
with net income OF million
would pay this s2.2so on his first
500, 900 and In addition he would pay
per cent. on 100000. which would
bring his total tax to sSS,260.
This bill also would re-enact the
present corporation tax law. imposing
a per cent. tax on the earnings OF
corporations. stock companies, insur.
ance companies and the like, but II
would exempt partnerships. This is
a flat tax, there being no graduated
scale as the earnings increase. The
few changes from the present corpo.

DEFINITION OF DRY FARMING
Accumulation and Conservation Of
Moisture In Soil 10 Aim and Pur.
pose Of Arid Farmer.
tBy E. R. PARsoNs.)

By E. R. PARSONs)
DRY farming has often been defined
as the conservation of moisture. A
much like definition and a more &C.
curate one would be the accumulation
and conservation Of moisture. We
must acquire our moisture before we
can conserve 1t, and unless we give
due weight to each of these process.
ses we cannot live up to the highest
standard Of. dry farming.
1T is self.evident that In order to
make use Of the best form of mulch.
local conditions must be given seri.
ous consideration. Some Of the prob
lens are as follows: ~ In a coun.
try where the precipitation is more
or less evenly divided throughout the
year, will the moisture be able to pene-
trate the mulch sufficiently to get
down into the sub-soil? My answer
based on experience is that the mois-
ture at the end Of the season Is large
ly found In the soil under a mulch
from two and half to three inches
In depth. (2) viii the mulch crust
easily after a rainfall or the reverse?
A furrowed surface will never crust
or bake like smooth one after q
storm, the bottom Of the furrow be.
ing much better than the top. (3
When high winds prevail will the
mulch blow? The smoothest land
blows the worst everywhere. II we
could take the edge of the wind 1t
amounts to the same thing as tax.
ing the edge OF a razor-it cannot
cut. tD VIII crust form under the
mulch in very dry weather. and II SO.
how can II be prevented? Every dry
year a wall goes up from the shallow
plowers and surface farmers as to
combating this problem. There is
only one remedy. deep-plowing. but
not a preventive as nothing on earth
can prevent this crust forming, pro-
vided the drouth last long enough.
(5) In country like California.
which has rainy and wet season,
what Is the best type Of mulch for
conservation purposes after the rain
has all fallen and a farmer faces the
regular five months drouth? The
deeper and finer the mulch the bet.
ter 1t conserves moisture when pre-
cipitation is no longer factor. In
such country We find the best far.
mers using fine mulch. even dust
mulch from six to eight inches deep.
The evaporation from the sub.soil
with a mulch OF this kind is almost
nil. (6) Is the top-soil or seed bed
OF cultivated field mulch to the
sub-soil or does the sub.soil moisture
move up freely with It? This is more
question Of dry farm physics. In
actual practice, agricultural books to
the contrary notwithstanding, / have
never been able In my thirty.flve
years Of dry farm work to discover
any capillary or film moisture moving
up from the sub-soil into the seed bed
by capillarity, and therefore | argue
that the top soil acts as and should
be regarded as mulch for the sub-soil.
"As a general rule on the dry farm
all fields will yield more when plow.
ed and fallowed ahead of planting
time II only for few weeks or a
month A farmer who does this sys.
tematically will find that he can al.
together dispense with a packer for
the soil after being settled by a good
rain or two is in much better physi.
