SURFACE DRAINS

On fiat land that allows the water
to stand on the surface, the crops are
being set back and in many cases in
jured., In many cases small surface
drains can be run from such standing
water to a road ditch or other drain
that will allow the water to run off,
If the standing water can be removed
it will be great help to the crop. In
many cases this can be done by plow-
ing furrow or two through the slight
ly higher land that keeps the water
from running off the field.
Now is good time to locate the
low places. In many cases the dead
furrow can be left where it will serve
as drain. It is often good practice
to pillow low-lying land in small lands
so as to have many dead burrows to
facilitate the water running off when
they can be run in the right direction
The road machines and especially
the light ones that can be run with a.
team are excellent for making shallow
drainage bitches with very gradually
sloping sides so that all farm MAJ
chinery can be run right through
them.
Anything that can be done now to
remove standing water in the field
will do much to help the crop. It will
be sloppy work but better try it and
plan to have permanent drains with
sloping sides that will take care Of
the surplus water as it comes where
this is possible.
The experiment station farm is very
level, yet in most cases by blowing a
furrow or two it has been found pos
sible to make bitches that will carry
the water from the low spots in the
field to the road bitches.
