BLOWING WHEAT
MAY BE STOPPED
BY LISTING BURROWS
Sowing at Right Angles to Wind Helps
But Best Method is TO Cut a
Furrow Every Few Rods.

Many inquiries have come in ask
ing how it would be possible to pre-
vent soils blowing and thus save the
loss of winter wheat by blowing out.
Accordingly, Professor Kezer of the
Colorado Agricultural College was
interviewed. He replied:
Most of the damage from blowing
has already been done. Blowing can
be controlled, however, if it is taken
in time. Possibly another year there
will be more growers taking the sit
uation in hand in time to make pre-
parations for preventing blowing, and
thus reduce losses.
"If the Land is dry, any Of our soils
will blow. Some protection can be af-
forded by drilling the grain crosswise
the prevailing direction Of the winds.
On new lands, full Of organic matter,
this protection will probably be suffic-
lent in most cases. On lands that have
been under the pillow for several years,
in which the organic matter has been
reduced, or on sandy lands, this cross
drilling will not furnish sufficient pro-
lection. The trouble with blowing Is
that the winds start the soil to move
ing. Moving soil loosens up more soil,
pulverizes it, and soon heavy damage
and soil movement results. A few list
ed burrows put in crosswise the direc-
tion of the prevailing winds will al
most completely control the blowing
The blowing can be stopped, even af-
ter it is started, by throwing in the
burrows, two or three, then leaving a
space of a few rods, then throwing in
few more. The sander the land, the
more frequently must the listed fur
rows be thrown in.
"Good farming and the rotation Of
crops will reduce the danger But
when blowing commences, the throw
ing in of listed burrows constitutes the
best protection for the immediate sit
uation. Often a few listed burrows at
the windward side of the field will pro-
tect the whole field. Sometimes it is
necessary to put in burrows more fire.
quently at intervals of from 4 to 20
rods. OF course, the listed burrows
will kill out some wheat, but only n
relatively small amount, and will pro-
tect the wheat that is left which might
otherwise be killed"

WASHINGTON NOTES
Merit Unappreciated

Washington, Apr. 21-(Special cor
respondcnce)-In the resignation of
Carter B. Keene, as director of the
United States postal savings system,
is seen a result of the exercise of ty-
rannical power by Postmaster General
Burleson. Mr.. Keene had been con-
sidering the step for several months
and dissatisfaction with :he attitude
of the Postmaster General towards
employees of the Post Office Depart
ment finally determined his action.
Mr.. Keene had been with the Post Of
flee Department for more tl-an twenty
years. He was appointed Director Of
Postal Savings in June, 1913. Mr..
Keene's resignation is another evidence
of the unfavorable conditions under
which officials of the present national
administration work.
