DRY FARM 1ILLAeE SYSTEM
Principles Upon Which Il Is Basel
Are Of Prime Consideration In
Any Region Of Drought.

tBy o. N. OLSON. Minnesota Station,
In regions where the amount o.
rainfall IL quite limited, though tn,
soil is Of desirable character fol
agricultural purposes. . system Of
tillase known n "dry farming" hal
been put in practice. Such . system
Is not entirely applicable to regions
Of heavier rainfall. but the principles
upon which It is based are Of prime
consideration in any region where oc
casional periods Of drought are known
The practice Of diskins Immediately
following harvest to at the soil to alb
sorb possible rainfall and to CHECK
evaporation. Is desirable one In any
locality; and ~ principles that 10
derlie subsurface packing and surface
cultivation are applicable, in q meas
ure. to every locality.
The dry-land farmer must keep IL
mind that his gravest danger lies in
an insufficient amount Of moisture to
mature his crops. He must save and
store In the soil as much as possible
Of the moisture that falls. and care
fully conserve It until It is needed by
the growing crop. Wherever sea.
sons rainfall is not sufficient to ma
ture crop. or the amount is very un.
certain. It isspossible, with proper till.
age. to carry over a greater portion OF
one seasons rainfall to the following
season. and thus strengthen the assur.
ance Of profitable crop.
Under such q system OF tillage
crops are not grown every year. and
in extreme cases the plan contem.
plates crop only every alternate
year. The important consideration
In all dry farming. no matter how
frequently the land is cropped. is a
careful conservation OF all moisture,
and the system of alternate cropping
will serve to illustrate the general
principle. After crop has been har.
vested the land Is either plowed or
disked. This puts the surface in a
loosened condition, which readily alb.
serbs any rainfall that may come. In
stead Of allowing It to waste by run.
ming of. With the disking method, a
portion Of the grain stubble is chopped
up and mixed with the surface soil.
which establishes a better connection
between the furrow slice and the sub.
soil below. whenever the land is
plowed. Where the land is disked In
the fall 1t is usually disked again In
the spring. and then plowed in the
early summer. Subsurfsce packing
usually follows spring plowing. and is
used for the purpose Of firming the
lower part Of the. furrow slice and to
unite 1t with the subsoil below.
The land Is given frequent surface
cultivation during the summer, hav-
Ing in mind two effective modes Of
conserving soil moisture, namely, the
keeping down Of all weed growth,
and the preservation Of an earth
mulch to check loss by evaporation.

FIND CAUSE OF FLAX WILT
Experiments Made by Expert at
North Dakota College Leads to Be.
lief Disease Attacks Wheat.

Prof. Bolley Of the North Dakota
Agricultural College has for a mum.
ber Of years been experimenting to
determine the cause Of flax-wilt. and
to find remedy for It, The result
has been the production Of fax seed
surprisingly resistant to disease. Far
ther investigation has led him to be-
lieve that diseases similar to flax.wilt
attack wheat. and may be controlled
largely by the methods he suggests
for the treatment OF flax.
Prof. Bolley's experiments lead to
the conviction that the flax disease
brings about immunity to its own at.
tack, and that extremely resistant
seed can be obtained by the careful
selection Of seed which each year
natures on "fax.sick" soil. Seed ia.
ken from diseased crop and run In
the usual way through the farm fan.
ming mill, until all lightweight seeds
are blown out. has been found by
Prof. Bolley's experiments to be de.
cidedly more resistant to wilt than
the seed ordinarily sown. The adop-
ton OF this procedure for several sea.
sons on flax-sick soil has developed
such immunity to disease as to make
1t seem probable that a continuance
OF the process. year after year. will
enable the farmer TO secure satisfac.
tory yields.
This process, however. should not
interfere with a proper rotation OF
crops. especially when the farmer
uses his own homegrown seed. Re.
sistant seed thus obtained from any
OF the standard sorts, however. will
lose Its power Of resistance to dis.
ease upon failure to follow the plan
outlined. The Importance Of persis.
tence In such following year after
year is shown In the fact that in most
cases resistant seed will develop
some weak plants each year. which
produce lightweight seeds: and these
must be dislodged each season by the
tanning mill. Otherwise the power
Of resistance gained In the original
effort will be lost. The experience OF
the Minnesota experiment station
shows that homebred seeds Of all
grains are more likely to produce
better results than seeds brought
from q distance or from regions where
climatic soil and conditions are dif.

BUSINESS OF the flood situation at
Shawneetown was indicated when
Governor Dunno and Adjutant Gen.
eral Dickson received a telegram from
Assistant Adjutant General D. ].
Shand. in personal charge OF the situ-
alton at that point, reading as fol-
lows:
Warning notices signed by chair
man local committee and myself have
been sent to every house for all worn-
en- and children to leave the city;
water rising very fast"
Colonel Stands message followed
one which road:
Water raised 6 feet 6 inches since
arrival late Friday night. Troops
guarding the levee and assisting in
habitants in moving to higher ground.
Water is now 50 feet inches"
Adjutant General Dickson, at the
direction Of Governor Dunne, placed
an order with Springfield bakers for
10000 loaves Of bread, which will be
hurried to Cairo and Shawneetown.
Believe Situation Relieved at Cairo. ]
Cairo. Ill.-Inhabitants Of Cairo
have been given renewed hope for
the safety Of their city. Before night
fall strong current was noticeable In
the Ohio river. This gave rise to the
opinion that something had given way
south Of here and that the situation,
which had been growing more and
more desperate, had been relieved.
The leyee here is still holding
strong, though the water has been
creeping steadily upward.
Damage at Cincinnati Is $2,ooo,o 900.
Cincinnati, Ohio.-When the Ohio
river here reaches stage of 69.7.
the crest Of the, flood at this poin.
will have been reached. The stage
late yesterday was 69.5 feet. The
river rose less rapidly than at any
time since the yellow flood began its
course of destruction. At points east
Of here the river already has begun to
recede. but the western reports are
replete with stories Of destruction and
desolation.
The direct and indirect damage
caused by the flooding of the rive.
front section and lov.lying residences
will be great. The direct loss is estl.
mated at moro than 100000.
Relief provisions locally and also In
the nearby inundated territory is
more than adequate and a statement
was issued by Mayor Hunt to the ef.
feet that no more supplied were re.
quired here.
The supplies are being turned over
to the Red Cross authorities for dis.
tribution.
Across the river from here, in the
several Kentucky cities and towns
that practically form one large city.
conditions still are deplorable. All Of
them are without lights.
In Newport the property loss was
declared to be larger than any hereto.
fore inflicted by flood waters there.
Relief is adequate In all the Ken.
lucky towns across the river from
here except Dayton. where the au.
thorities have appealed to the federal
relief officials for assistance.

Deafness Cannot Be
Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that's by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian tuhe. When this tube is
infiamed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing
but an infamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness-caus by
catarrh-that cannot be cured by Halls
