each year a few more chickens than

about thirty chickens should be raised.

agricultural editor. and w. r. Porter,
superintendent OF demonstration
farms, of the experiment station STAFF
OF the subject: Bringing Scientific
Agriculture to the Farmer.
How to best apply the results of the
investigations by the experiment sta
tions to practical work on the farms
is one of the great problems in the
advancement Of agriculture. The
primary method is through bulletins
and other publications. How to pre-
pare these to best advantage. how to
make them interesting and to present
pertinent facts in the most effective
manner is a question of fundamental
importance.
The application of methods OF culti-
walton and Of crop rotation Is shown
en- a small scale upon some twenty
demonstration farms located in vari-
Gus parts Of North Dakota where diff
ferent conditions are to be met. Upon
these farms small portion OF the land
is set aside to be handled according
to plan outlined by the station and
under close supervision by frequent
visits to the superintendent or his
assistants. This plan gives the expert
ment station opportunity to observe
conditions in various parts OF the state
and provides a local center for the
development of interest in such work.

"Pedigree Culture"
"A new method was suggested by an
epoch-making book which was brought
out in 1910 by DeVries of the Univer-
sity of Amsterdam. In his plan of
pedigree culture the record Of every
individual plant was kept with the
same care that is used in a breeding

seeds that could be imported were
used. For two or three years Nilsson.
of one of the Swedish experiment sta
tions, tried mass culture, but appar-
emily made no progress. When De
Vries' book came out it flashed upon
Nilsson that here was an idea which
might be applied to the problem he
had to face. AS the topography of
Sweden is so diversified, he thought
there should be twelve varieties of
oats, and he dreamed of these twelve
varieties until he said he would have
known them If he had met them in the
street. He found two varieties in one
oats field, for there are no two plants
alike, and before the season was over
he had not only the twelve plants he
set out to get. but $50 varieties. In
1910 the yield of oats in Sweden was
fraction over thirty-six bushels to
the acre; in the United States it was
fraction over thirteen bushels.

est enemy to crops is drought, but
pea1gfee culture has enabled us to de-
velop. drouGht-resisting strains ri
wheat and corn. and pedigree culture
has made disease-resisting strains
possible"
Prof. Coulter gave an interesting
account of the search. for the original
oped. The story of the discovery OF
this grain in Palestine by a young
scientist, Aranson, reads. as the lee
turer said, like Sherlock Holmes
an explanation that we wonder no one
had thought of it before" This orig
inal wild grass, perfectly drought-re-
ststing and disease-resisting, was dis
from which it derived its name. Wheat,
as he explained, was carried from PAL
estine in two directions, north into a
humid region and south into an arid
region, with the result that two kinds
Aranson's experiments have been de-
layed as all his helpers have entered
the Turkish army, but arrangements
have been made between the govern
ments of Turkey and the United States
and Mr.. Aranson is on his way to this
country. He told Professor Coulter that
Arizona and New Mexico are practic-
ally duplicates of Palestine in agricul-
tural possibilities and that If this
drought-resisting wheat were intro
duced into those states it would prob
ably take possession of everything.
In the same year that the drought
resisting wheat was discovered in Pal
estine, a drought-resisting strain of
corn was discovered in several prov
inceS of China by a missionary.
Speaking of the breeding of disease
resisting strains Professor Coulter re-
ferred to the ravages made by a dis
ease which attacked the cotton crop in
the southern states several years ago.
THE government sent three experts to
investigate" he said. Two of these
men had been so long in the govern
ment service that they didn't know
what had happened in their branch of
work for twenty years. The third
member of the party was a young fell
low, fresh from college. The older men
saw only the blight, but the young
man saw the plants that were per-
fect1y immune in the midst of the
plague. These plants were developed
and pedigreed and q tdisease-resisting
strain was the result Before advance
was made. in medicine this develop
ment of disease-resisting strains went
on unconsciously; the susceptible ones
died, the immune persons lived.
Although 1t is not exactly connect
ed with the subject / want to say a
few words on soil. We used to think of
soil as dirt from which plants get their
food. Soil isn't dirt and plants don't
get their food from 1t. That's all that
is the matter with the definition. Soil
is wonderfully balanced mechanism
into which we have been putting more
fertilizer than brains" IT,
