PUMPING Plant
FOR b)GPURPOSE
Continued on Page 49,
(Sneclal to The 1rihune.l

WILLISTUN, N. D., Feb. 24.--The
director of the reclamation irrigation
plant here said: "The big pumping
plant built by the government here
cannot be operated for few acres.
The government said it would operate
at low cost for 1000 acres in 1911,
for 5000 acres in 1912 and for 1000
acres this year. If the water-users
do not pay up on the 1000 acres this
spring the big pumps will not take any
water out of the Missouri river and
the alfalfa and other crops can burn
up if the rains do not come timely.
The coming summer will be the sixth
since the project was completed, and
it is required that half of the irrigable
area either take water or pay small
toll toward the cost of operation. If
the farmers of community. commit
ed as many offences against the laws
as they are committing against them
selves in wasteful management and
poor financiering, and unscientific
farming, they would all be in Jail. The
Williston irrigation project will con-
vert your Ignite coil into briquettes
of golden butter, hams bacon, beef,
and reduce the cost Of living while
making money for the farmer at the
same time. !"

Experiments with fertilizers for po-
tatoes have given a large amount OF
data from which the conclusion is cas-
lily drawn that each potato field is q
problem in itself. Barnyard manure
has been a detrinent when applied
Immediately before planting, but one
year previous to planting as high as
twenty tons per acre have given good
results. On the college farm on good
soil in 1911 manuHed land produced
rs bushels and the unmanured land
80 bushels. In 1912 the land MANFRED
in 1911 produced 210 bushels-unma-
nured. 100 bushels. At Lawrence in
1911 a MANFRED field produced 81
bushels and no manure 81 bushels,
while this MANFRED field in 1912 pro-
duced 225 bushels, no manure, IT'S
bushels. At Alma, in 1912, -manure-20
loads per acre-produced 1853 bushels
and no manure 17S bushels. The ex-
PLANTATION seems to lie in the fact that
nitrogen, the first element liberated
from the barnyard manure stimulates
q heavy growth Of top at the expense
OF. the tuber. In every case, manure
applied one year previously has given
an increased yield. With the COM
mercial fertilizers, the results have
been much more valuable. In one
field in 1911 the average Of the check
blocks was 81 bushels. Two hundred
pounds Of potassium sulfate at a cost
Of $50 produced So bushels; zoe

WHAT FERTILIZERS FOR THE POTATO FIELDS?

yielding block of-any fertilizer was
but an increase Of less than two bush
els over the check blocks. Fields in
other locations have given valuable
results, but the one fact that seems
to stand forth In taking the entire
number Of tests as whole is that
phosphorus is likely to be lacking in
Kansas potato fields. With the evil
dence now in, the best recommends
ton for potato growers Is a rotation
which shall include the manuring Of
the soil one year before the potatoes
are to. occupy the field.
The fight against insects has been
a. hard one. In 1911 the bugs were
SO numerous whenSthe potatoes came
through the ground that hundreds
could be counted in the fields during
the blind plowing." The voracious
beetles attacked the potatoes as soon
as they appeared, and they were In
such numbers that many times after
spraying many dead beetles would be
found about the badly devoured stem.
Spraying did not serve to control the
insects at this early stage, as there
was not sufficient poison tissue to
feed the myriads of insects, and hand
picking was a very profitable invest
ment for the potato grower. After the
potatoes attained a little size, arsen-
ate OF lead applied as strong as 4
pounds to 80 gallons Of water de-
.stroyed practically all Of the insects.
Being much more adhesive than Paris
green, arsenate Of lead is much supe-
rloP In seasons Of normal rainfall, al
though in 1911 and 1912 Paris green
was fully as efflcacious. In 1911 and
1912 there was little need Of sprays
Cor early blight. but in other seasons
the blight has been well controlled
by using Bordeaux mixture In com.
bination with the arsenate Of lead

must gather food and nourIshment to
support its top. To Offset this loss
of roots, 1t is common practice to
cut back the tops Of the broad-leaved
species in about the same proportion
as the roots. Cutting back has two
fold benefit 1t reduces the demand
upon the roots, and also retards the
tree from coming into leaf, giving the
root system an opportunity to develop
before the leaves require a large
amount of moisture. Evergreen trees,
on the other hand, should not be cut
back except in few instances. In 9th
er words. they are planted with their
full amount Of foliage, and the drain
upon the roots Is as great as before
the tree was transplanted. Under
these circumstances, 1t is clearly seen
that the most favorable conditions
possible should be provided for the
newly planted tree.
The conditions most favorable for
tree growth is q loose, well.aerated,
moist soil. To secure these conditions,
cultivation is very necessary from the
time the trees are set out, until they
reach such size that they shade the
ground, thus protecting themselves.
The kind Of cultivation required is
the same as that required by any 9TH
er growing crop. The surface Of the
ground should be kept loose and mel;

the first Of August, they are counted
as dead. The loss Of these trees is
largely due to the fact that they are
attempting to grow under unfavorable
conditions, and the roots are not able
to supply the tops with the necessary
moisture. The best remedy for this
condition is good cultivation.
There are very few soils in the state
that do not possess Sufficient fertil-
ity for successful tree growth. Trees
utilize but a small per cent of the
mineral elements. Wood is composed
very largely OF carbon. This, the
plant secures directly from the air
through its leaves. Its principal de-
mand upon the soil Is for moisture.
Pouring water on the surface of the
ground, however, during dry seasons,
does not fully provide for the require
ments Of best growth.
The ground must be kept mellow by
cultivation, spading or hoeing. This
must be done while conditions are
favorable, and not after the ground
has become dried and baked, either
through surface evaporation. or be-
cause of the growth Of weeds. Now
is the appointed time. Do not de-
lay cultivation until the corn is laid
by, or until the alfalfa is cut and
stacked. 1t will then be too late to
save your trees.
