lnlsy FARMING.

What Is III or many people, few
know the meaning Of the owrd dry
farming, Defined, Dry-fal ming is
the profitable production OF useful
crops without irrigation on land that
receives annually rainfall OF TWEEN
~ inches or less.
It's a problem that must command
very much attention agriculturally.
IT. is a world problem hat Is com
handing the attention of the lead
inE agrieulturists of the nations of
The earth. Fifty-five per cent. or
more than one-balf or the total sur
face of the earth, receives All annual
precipitation OF less thar twenty per-
precipitation OF les than 20 inches.
Al least ten per cent more receives
from 20 to 80 inches under condi-
lions that make the dry methods
necessary. A total OF about SIS per-
sent Of the earth's land surface Is,
therefore. directly interested in dry
farming. Only about 10 percent Of
the area "a be reclaimed by irriga-
ton. Dry farming Is truly a prob
lem to challenge the attention OF
she race.
We predict a few more genera
lions will find the worlds cereal
farm areas and the more intensive
crop as potatoes. beets. fruits etc,
grown only upon the irrigated sec
tions and these grown intensively.
The United States has 600. 0O0.-
900 acres OF dry farm land. Her
agrieniturists are working vigorously
the problems that dry farming
present While she Is not the first

Ger phase OF agriculture. The semi
