8. On grain lands before planting,
where the normal moisture content of
the land is insufficient to mature the
crop without further irrigation. One
such irrigation before planting is us
ually worth two after planting.
Over irrigation of any soil is harm
full but under irrigation, when water
is available for use and when the
farmer claims a right to its use,
should be a misdemeanor punishable
by revoking the right to such use.
The early waters should be used
with just as much care as is exercised
in mid season in order that none will
be wasted. Water properly stored in
the soil means successful crops. The
longer it stored in the arid soils the
more producing power it has when
fought into action in the growing
plant. Therefore, the soil may be
considered a storage reservoir more
valuable than that constructed for the
impounding of flood waters in stor-
age basins.
In any normal Utah soil of average
depth, plowed in the fall or early
spring, then irrigated and thoroughly
cultivated before planting crop of
grain, corn, beans, or potatoes may
be assured, without further irrigation.
After irrigating an alfalfa field ear
ly, the spring tooth harrow should be
applied freely in order to loosen the
surface and insure the free circula-
ton of air, and the conservation of the
moisture thus stored When a field Of
plowed land has been irrigated before
planting it should be followed by a
thorough narrowing of the surface in
order that blanket of mulch may pre-
vent evaporation and insure plenty of
moisture organization and mainten-
ance of crop growth
If the cultivated area is to be plant
ed to potatoes, the surface mulch may
be made two or three inches deep;
but if alfalfa, grain, or other small
seeds are to be planted, this surface
mulch should be but one or not over
one and one-half inches deep. Failure
in the uniform termination of small
seeds on land irrigated before plant
ing are usually traceable to the fact
that the soil has been stirred too deep
after irrigation. In the spring the
soil will dry out just as deep as it has
been disturbed.
These are few of the points which
may well be considered if Utah is to
do her part in the great task of feed
ing the Nation or Nations in this great
world conflict.

In the crisis which c0nfronts Am

the mobilization of a gigantic army

DRAWING OF DRAFT IS
POSTPONED FOR WEEK

cation Servicel
WASHINGTON, d. c., July H.
The official drawing for the draft,
which was supposed to take place
on Saturday, will probably now not
be held until a week later. The war
department is all ready to proceed,
but in many places the local exemp-
ton boards are not yet organized in
such a way as to handle the work
before them.
Claims for exemption from service
under the terms of the selective draft
act may be made on behalf of any
who may be drafted by any member
of his family, or even by third party
who may have Information to lay be-
fore the exemption boards as to why
the person drafted should not be re-
ceived into the national service.
This explanation was made yester-
day by Provost Marshal Crowder, in
response to requests for further ex-
plantations of the exemption clauses
Of the act. It is explained that some
who should be exempted may not pre-
sent their claims, preferrfng not to
appear in the slightest as slackers
while to call them to the colors would
be to leave dependent relatives or to
prevent essential work for the gov
eminent being performed.
In such cases. as these, says the
provost marshal, the claims for, exemp-
ton may be made by others than
the ones drafted. even against the
consent of the drafted ones.
