Deep Flowing.

A great deal has been said and
written about deep plowing. Some
have advocated the system in season
and out of season. for all soils. all
crops and all conditions. and Others
have opposed the system.
Deep plowing certainly has its
place in nearly all systems of agri-
culture. but it has to be used with
discretion. Deep plowing immedi-
ately before planting crop. on the
dry land is almost sure to insure
failure of the crop. Unless rains
should come Immediately after plow-
ing. injury will surely follow because
of moisture conditions. If rains
come Immediately afterwards, no
damage is done. The moral of this
experimental fact is that deep plow-
ing should be done considerable
period previous to seeding time so
that the moisture relation and proper
compaction can be completed in the
soil before seeding.
Deep blowing is sometimes not
advisable in high attitudes because OF
the fact that growing conditions are
quite different, so that the crop does
not mature as quickly in the very
high attitudes. This is sometimes a
serious factor with such crops as the
grains. If the crop is delayed in ma
turity for ten days. it may be caught
by a severe freeze. running the crop
Deep plowing. especially short time
before seeding in these attitudes
sometimes has the effect OF delay
ing maturity more than that number
of days. 1t must. therefore. be used
with caution for crops where early
maturity is a desirable factor. This
caution only applies to the high al
titudes which have, normally, very
short seasons.

pen with alfalfa. The only way to
discover whether or not it will grow
is to try it inexpensively in an exper-
mental plot, get certain general facts
in mind, and then extend the expert
ment to promising local farms with
the help OF the farmer himself
Only recently the department had
requests for 10000 to 10000 pounds
OF alfalfa seed for distribution to
some Fifty or sixty thousand farm
ers. If the department had acceded
to this request, it very easily might
have encouraged the farmers in that
region to spend additional money for
seed when they should not have un-
dertaken the culture OF alfalfa at all
The mere furnishing OF seed is only
the first step. because its successful
, cultivation calls for special methods
of soil preparation. incubation, and
many other matters not commonly
understood by those who have had
no experience with this forage and
cover crop.
Alfalfa where it can be grown
properly is undoubtedly of much
value to the farmer. In regions where
lit is already grown the farmer can
gain valuable advice by consulting
those who are already growing 1t sue
ccssfully. Before becoming pioneer
in alfalfa raising in his district, how
ever. the farmer would do well TO
consult with his state experiment sta
ton and so gain all possible informa-
ton that will help him TO make sue
cess. or else obtain information that
will show him fully the danger of at
tempting to raise alfalfa and make
clear to him exactly the risk OF mon
ey. time, and use OF land he is taking
in attempting the experiment.

voters Of the state under captions SIMPLY
reading "For Better Roads" and Against
Better Roads.

TWO SPECIAL
ELECTIONS CALLED
City Will Vote Upon Water
Bond Reissue May II
SCHOOL DISTRICT BOND
ELECTION APRIL rs
For the Purpose OF Building and
Equipping Grade School on
South Eighth Street

AT an adjourned meeting of the
city council on Monday evening an
ordinance was introduced and
passed first reading calling
special election on Tuesday. May
12, for the purpose of voting upon
the question of refunding $l5, 900
of water bonds now due and issu-
ing like amount of refunding
bonds to redeem and liquidate the
old.
1t had been learned that it would
be illegel to vote upon an issue of
bonds for city improvement at
special election, SO the proposition
of voting additional bonds for fire
equipments and city hall building
purposes will not be submitted to
the people at this time.
At this meeting of the council
the esignation Of Fred l.. john
ston from the Office of city trea-
surer, because of his moving be-
you'd the city limits, was taken up
and accepted, and in his place
Clarence Govreau WAS elected, so
that the funds of the city will still
be in the safe keeping of Johnston
& Govreau.
School Board Calls Special Election
At meeting of the board Of
directors of School District No. a
on Tuesday afternoon resolution
was unanimously passed calling n
special election on Saturday, April
25, for the purpose of voting upon
an additional bonded indebtedness
of $25, 900 for the purpose of build
ing and equipping a grade school
upon the acre tract owned by the
district at the end of South Eighth
street.
AS every school patron is aware
there is vital necessity that the
congested condition of our schools
be in some manner relieved, but
whether the taxpayers will at this
time-when our burdensome taxes
is very sore subject-vote upon
themselves an additional tax for
school building to cost the sum
demanded, is very doubtful
question.
Another reason that Rocky
Ford citizens are advancing
against the proposal is that this
great improvement will be outside
the corporate limits and in the
main will benefit those property
owners who persistently resist the
appeals to come inside the city.

NOT A CURE-ALL.
Alfalfa Not Suited For All Soils and
Districts.

Many farmers have been led
through the excitement produced by
alfalfa trains, and other promotion
methods. to plant alfalfa when they
never should have attempted it, ac-
cording to specialists OF the Depart
ment. These specialists feel that
there has been an unnecessary
amount of talk about alfalfa and too
little actual attempt to demonstrate
the limitations that exist with refer
ence to growing that crop. As a re-
suit the department, while it is help
ing farmers to cultivate alfalfa and
other leguminous plants by prepar-
ing bacterial cultures, is also eau
tioning its demonstration agents to
teach the farmer 10 grow alfalfa
where it is desirable to have it taught
and where there is promise of sue
cess. These demonstration agents
are particularly warned not to en-
courage individual farmers to grow
alfalfa unless the climate and other
conditions and the soil OF the special
farm fully warrant the experiment
which involves an investment for
seed and cultivation. and If the crop
is not successful means waste of
the land over growing season. The
question OF whether alfalfa will grow
is not simple problem, but involves
frequently complicated group OF
problems which have to be consid-
cred from several different angles and
by several different groups OF special
lists. Mere examination OF the soil
will not show what is going to hap
