The Dry Land Orchard

A number of homesteaders on the
plains east Of Denver want to know if it
will pay them to try to grow fruit with
out irrigation. We should very much
dislike to locate with family where
fruie of some kind could not be grown
on the place. One cannot make real
home in the country without fruit and
we would not locate in such place, nor
stay if we were located. But fruit can
be grown in far drier situations than
many suppose. Right up close to the
foothills, and in sight Of irrigated lands,
we have seen fine dry orchards we'll
loaded with apples. plums, etc. There
is such an orchard near Denver that has
never had artificial watering and it
bears fairly well. No doubt these or
chards would produce more fruit if irri-
gated and 80 would nearly every field of
perly dynamiting and working the soil
before planting and carefully tilling it
afterwards surprisingly good returns
can be had even where the subsoil itself
is not very moist. First, the land must
be plowed deep, from eight inches to
foot, and we'll worked. This extra till
age must be followed with planted
crops well titled for one or more years
and then plant only varieties which are
known to do we'll in such lands. After
the planting the tilling must be kept up
and no crops. weeds or otherwise, must
be allowed to sap the land. This heavy,
or rather continued clean tilling Of or
chards and small fruits is we'll under
stood by most of our fruit growers; still
some folks will not do it, thinking 1t an
expensive and unnecessary thing. We
do not advise of course going into COM
mercial growing in dry country, with
out irrigation. although there are ia
vorably located lands where this can be
done very successfully. y.-The Denver
