depth at first, gradually increasing
this at each subsequent plowing un-
til the final depth is reached. This
does away with the danger of bring
ing lot of raw soil to the surface
of the ground thereby decreasing
crop yields for the time being. The
final depth should be as far down
as it is possible to work the land.
Many sugar companies who are
farming their own land go regu-
larly to a depth of "a inches by the
use of power engines. The man de-
pending on horses should have suf-
ficent stock to plow IL or 16 inches
deep and implements heavy enough
to stand the strain.
If the land has not been packed
by the winter rains or SHOWS, this
must be done with farm tools. Fol-
lowing the plow will come the har-
row, drag and roller. The kind of
implements and the order and
amount of work each must do de-
pending on the natural conditions
of the soil. The whole idea in pre-
pairing the land is to secure we'll
fined, well-packed, and well-stirred
seed bed, and any method which
Will bring about these conditions
will be well repaid in the better
growth of the beet.
During spring work any plowing
or deep cultiyating must be worked
down Immediately so that by night
fall no rough open land is left. In
other words stop plowing or cult
waiting early enough to run the i'm
plements for fining the surface soil
before the doys work is considered
complete.
After the ground has been well
settled or packed the final operation
should be a light narrowing, so as to
leave fine mulch covering the
whole surface. Leaving the soil
dragged tends to make it crust II
rain comes and also causes too ex-
cessiye evaporation from the soil.
Time OF Planting
The time of planting will be
largely determined by local condi-
I'tions. For the San Luis valley the
writer recommends early planting,
that is April goth to May 18th. No
beets should be planted after the
latter date in any case. Once the
land is ready II should be planted
/ rapidly.
A frost or two will make no diff
/ ference. Small beets with two leaves
are known to have stood tenn
perature of Is degrees. Early plant
ing gives the beet more time TO de-
yelop and reduce the danger OF
damage from insect pests.

falfa Writer has stated before that
our soil needs nitrogen and humus,
and that in the absence of barnyard
manure, the cheapest way to get the
soil In shape will be to plow under
crop of green manure. The peas
shown in this rotation plan are
therefore to be plowed under in the
fall, this plan will be necessary until
the alfalfa has been thoroughly
established on the farm, that is to
say until such time when the farmer
is able to turn under field of al
falfa, three or four years old every
year. Where alfalfa is plowed un-
der, the farmer will take off the first
cutting, plow under the second crop.
1t is not necessary for a man to
take his whole farm into this rota-
tion plan at once. Take 60 or 80
Of 10 or Is acres to the plat. 1t
should be borne u mind that the
plat going into alfalfa should be
thoroughly leyeled, this will be
necessary to insure a good stand.
Besides an increased yield of farm
products, this rotation plan will
prevent congestion OF work in spring
as well as in fall, considering our
short seasons this is an item not to
be overlooked.

After months of earnest
effort, plans have been per-
fected by the San Luis Valley
Sugar company which posi-
lively assures the construction
and operation of railroad
from the Sugar Factory to
Center. All obstacles have
been broken down by this
group of men to whom failure
is an obsolete word, and the
great task of securing coop
Grafton and financing the en-
terprise is crowned with sue

means so much for the stable
prosperity of our people.
Mr.. A. T. Young, who is the
general engineer of the under
taking, stated in an interview
with a JOURNAL representa-

morning that he has instruc-

struction upon the road. The
general contract for the work
will be let the first of next
week when the bids are open

outside construction firm, the
team work, however, and all
that can be success full y
handled by local contractors,
will be given to Valley people.
Mr.. Young said: we are 60

we are not going to waste any

Hot Springs. June rs. - Every thing
is in readiness for the South Dakota
State FiTemen's turnament which will
be held in this city for four days, com
meucing Tuesday, June II. A few
minor details perhaps are yet to be
arranged but by that time everything
will have been attended to relative TO
the comfort Of the visitors during
their stay and the program arranged,
which is u of the best ever prepared
since the organization of the associs-
ton, together with the plunges and
other sights about the city should
furnish ample amusement and excite
ment for everybody.
A record attendance is predicted and
from the number of hotel eseIvations
already made both for the fire compan
les and visitors these predictions will
prove correct. Practically every city
of any size in the state will be repre-
sented either by running teams or by
delegates and in many instances
bands will accompany the teams
Rapid City, Pierre, Yankton, Lead,
Aberdeen and a number OF the other
cities which won prizes at former
tournaments will have big delegations
as reports from these places are to
the effect that the teams have been
practicing faithfully.
Many visitors from the eastern part
of the state are expected to take ad-
vantage OF the special rates to visit the
Black Hills at this time and this will
add to the crowd. The scenery here
is unsurpassed and most of those
coming here will make the trip up
through the Hills before returning.
