DRY FARM POTATO GROWING
Conditions and Localities Where Il ls

tBy c. l.. FITCH. Colorado Experiment
StationD
Experience has proved that the dry
lander should plant both early and
late varieties OF potatoes. to catch the
season at one end or the other. Early
ohios have been most used for early
planting. but above the ditch are apt
to be rusty fieshed, from soil heat in a
dry summer. Irish Cobhlers arc bet
ter In this respect, and yield more in
a good year. Pearls are largely plant
ed for a late variety.
II is n good plan on dry land to
mark the field both ways and 10 plant
the potatoes at the cross mark, then
cultivate them both ways. so as tc
reduce hand work II Is risky to plant
on ground In a dry year with a dried
out subsoil. but with a good spring

spacing makes potatoes fairly sure
where leaf roll has not appeared.
There are many excellent dry-lant
regions for potato growing in the table

make careful inquiry regarding their
neighbors' experiences before giving
much land or work to potatoes.

OLDEST PIEcE oF WIRING
sumerlan Tablet In University Of
Pennsylvania Records Deeds Of
B~abylonlans.

A number OF ancient Sumerian tab
lets. recording the deeds OF the Baby
ionians thousands OF years ago., have
been deciphered by George A. Barton
at the University Of Pennsylvania mu-
scum. One of these tablets, which
tells how a farmer rid his field Of To-
Gusts and caterpillars, is dated 1900
y. c. and is the oldest piece Of writ
ing extant, according to IN announce
ment made by officials Of the museum.
The farmer. Doctor Barton's transla-
ton says, called in a necromancer,
who broke a jar, cut open a sacrifice,
a word Of cursing he repeated, and the
locusts and caterpillars fed" For this
service he received a tall palm tree.
That a canal was constructed In
B~abylonia nearly 5000 years ago IL
shown by another tablet dated "The
year the Divine Naram-sin opened the
mouth OF the canal Erin at Nlppur."
Naram-Sln was a king In Babylonia
and is supposed TO have financed the
construction Of the waterway which
gave Nippur transportation facilities
with the rest OF the world. A third
tablet, dated 1900 b. c., records the
transfer Of land and a quantity OF
grain for bronze money. Gold and sill
yer were known at that time, but were
not used as currency.

Supt. H~ertsgaard of Kindred was a
visitor at the Normal on Monday. He
interviewed some members of the sen-
ior class with reference to positions
for next year.
Spring work on the grounds has al
ready begun. The new athletic field
will be prepared for use and a number
of elm trees will be set out. The
snow fences did excellent service dur
ing the winter both in preventing the
snow from piling up on the walks and
drives and in stopping the sweep OF
the wind thus saving the lawn.
