Cultivation Necessary

:
"Several farmers have told me. =
says Farm Adviser A. L. Paschall,
'that their crops, especially vege-
tables, are no doing we'll, even
though frequent irrigations have
been given. On questioning and
after investigation 7 found that
very frequent irrigation had been
given, sometimes water sufficient
to keep the soil almost saturated,
and at other times small amounts
which would bake the top Of the
soil but not sufficient to penetrate
to the roots. In both cases cult
walton was neglected. Plant roots
must have air. Water excludes
air. Frequent and small irriga-
tions make the top of soil run to-
gether, thus excluding the air;
this is worse in a fine silt or clay
soil which is deficient in humus.
The proper method is to thorough
ly irrigate, soaking the soil well
and deep and then as soon as dry
enough cultivate. This will pre-
vent baking, conserve moisture
and admit air to the roots. 1t will
also enable the soil to take up water
much better at the next irrigation.
"a ine-toQth harrow cu1tivator,
riding oultivators with narrow
teeth or a Hallock weeder are ex-
celleut implements for this purpose.
A cultivator with small teeth to
run next to the plants and large
shovel attached for making a furrow
in middle of row for irrigating is
also desirable implement for irri-
CATION farming.

under cowpeas, sweet cloYer, etc.,
which will put the soil in better
condition for working, produce
larger crops, and bring quick re

suggestion that at least 1000, 600 Jews
from abroad should emigrate to the
country beyond the Mississippi river
aroused enthusiasm today among
those interested in the movement to
aid Jewish sufferers from the war.
He declared that the west was ready
to welcome them and that a land
of plenty awaited them there.
Mr.. Schiff's proposal was made in
an address to the educational alli
ance last night on his return from
a trip to San Antonio. San Francisco,
Kansas City and Chicago. undertaken
in part to discover the sentiment
toward the Jews in the west Every
where he went, he said, he found

a youth of 16 years, was convicted
Friday of cattle stealing.
On account of his tender years it
was thought by some that he had
been forced into the cattle stealing
business by more experienced rust
tiers. As the evidence was brought
out. however, it was found that the
boy was an old hand at the bust
ness.
He was sentenced to seven years
in the penitentiary. 1t is thought by
the authorities here that this con-
viction will aid in breaking up a

WILL OPEN
BANKING DE-
PARTMENT 7
TREASURER ALEXANDER CON-
PLYING WITH NEW LAW-WlLL
RECEIVE DAILY DEPOSIT FROM
STATE DEPARTMENTS

Oklahoma City, Okla, May 9.-State
Treasurer w. l.. Alexander is prepar-
ing to open his banking department
July | under the terms OF the new law
that makes the state treasurer deposi'
tary of daily collections by all state
departments that receive state moneys.
A banking room is to be arranged
and a regular system of deposits and
accounts established under the terms
of the law. Each officer of the state
receiving money for the state will be
required to deposit the money each
day in the banking department of the
state treasury. 1t will be Immediately
placed in the depositary banks at in
terest. At the end of each month the
funds thus handled, will be covered
int othe state treasury, as is done un-
der the present law.
Beginning July /, the state treasur-
er will also have custody of the vast
lundS OF tne state SCnOOl ldnu COM
mission. These funds will be deposit
ed in banks to be nominated by the
commission, however. The consider
able funds handled by the corporation
commission and the state banking de-
partment will also go into the state
treasury as a depositary under the
new law.
Banks will not be allowed to have
more public money in the aggregate
than the amount oftheir capital stock.
This means that the school land funds
the state funds and the depositary
funds in each bank, when added to-
gether, must never exceed the amount
of capital of such bank. This system
will prevent pyramiding of funds, as
has sometimes happened by the
moneys of the state being handled
through separate offices.
