HOW SCIENTISTS

Survey of important Work of One
of Branches of Department
of Agriculture.
STUDIED VARIED ACTIVITIES
Bureau Took Active Part With Geo.
logical Survey in Nationwide
Search for Deposits of Nj
trates and Potash.

During the twenty years of Its
existence. the bureau of soils. United
States department of agriculture. has
studied the chemical constituents of
the soils of all parts of the country, 1t
has Investigated these constituents
qualitatively and qunntltativcly, show
Ing their relation to one another and
TO plants. their solubllity and perma-
nency, and the manner of their func-
tioning. 1t has studied the problem
of alkali-that condition arising where
soils contain an excess of soluble salts
and devised methods for measuring
the content of aikali In the field and
for eliminating 1t under field condi-
tions. 1t has studied hnrdpnns, eN-
planned The manner of their formation,
and suggested the means Of improving
lands affected with the different sorts.
These various activities have involved
the making of thousands of analyses
and the devising of much apparatus.
Public Given Advice and Counsel.
Advice and counsel Is given by the
bureau to the public on all matters
connected with soil chemistry. The
bureau has also Investigated the phys
ical properties of soils. 1t has devised
apparatus for measuring the tempera-
ture of soils, the movement of water
and of air and other gases In soils.
The absorption of WATER the extent
and rate of capillary action, the eff
feet of pressure ON the concentration
of the nutrient solution. and on the
retention of that solution in the soil,
the relation of soils To erosion, and
many kindred problems have been
worked upon.
The bureau has also worked upon
the problem of the fiXation Of nitrogen
found in the air in It's experimental
factory ut Arlington. much advance
having been made. Carried to It's logi-
cal conclusion this move will result
in supplying easily all the nitrogen
the country needs IN agriculture and
industry.

the states of the union. The surveys
are of Two kinds; detailed surveys on

OATS ARE ECONOMICAL CROP
Not Generally as Profitable as Some
Other Grains, but Needed in
Good Rotation.

1t is sound farm business TO sell
some crops for cash. Farm manage
ment surveys have shown that the
safest and soundest practice is TO
have about one-fifth of the total re-
ceipts ON the farm come from sale of
crops. The other four-fifths will come
from the sale OF live stock or live
stock products.
The crop that can usually be sold
for cash most economically is oats.
Oats are not generally rs profitable II

good rotation needs this small grain In
it. 1t makes very satisfactory CON
Meeting link between the corn crop
and the hay crop. Corn. If sold as a
cash crop. makes a larger return to

more profitably than Il can be sold for
cash. 1t is ordinarily cheaper feed
than oats. Hence, If any crop Is to
be sold. 1t should be the oats.

HINTS FOR BUILDING
ICE HOUSE FOR FARM
Erection of Structure Depends
Much or Local Conditions.
Size Of Building and Difficulty of OBJ.
tanning Ice Are Important Fac
tors-other Details Must
Be Considered.

Construction of farm Ice house de-
pends 10 a great extent upon local con-
ditions, the size of the house, and the
difficulty Of obtaining ice. These fac
tors help to determine the sum that
may wisely be spent for such II build
Ing. Where Ice is expensive or hard
to obtain, better constructed and In
sulnted and therefore more expensive
ice house is advisable. Where natural
ice can be harvested and stored

and repairs and depreciation on the

Being Cut Rapidly.
The timber stand in California Is be-
ing cut at the rate of about 1.J00,OO0,-
600 feet annually practically all of
the cut, up 20 the present time, has
been in the most accessible stands,
whereas a considerable part of the re-
manning timber is comparatively in
accessible" the report says. logging
operations are removing annually n
little less than 2 per cent of western
Washington's and less than ] per cent
of western OregOn's timber. Yet the
reasonably accessible timber and that
in private ownership is going very
much faster; and, with decreasing
southern pine production. enormous
pressure to increase the cut may be
expected"
As an example, the situation in
Gray's Harbor county is cited about
20 years ago there were in this coun-
ty 100000 acres of timber and only
about 10000 acres of cuttings. Now
there are 355,oO0 acres of stumps.
One-siXtecnth of the county's private
timber land is being cut over annually.
In % years the supply of privately
owned virgin timber Will be gone"
1t has been found that in western
Washington about 5000 acres annual
ly, and in eastern Washington $4,000
acres annually We're cut over from 1909
to 1919. All things considered, 4 is
expected by an authority on tho hm-
Der supplies of Washington that the
privately-Owned virgin timber supply
of the state will be virtually gone in 20
years unless forest policies are
changed.
Local Consumption a Factor.
Forest depletion In Washington has
proceeded much further than in Ore
gpn, the report says; and while an ex-
pansIon of the industry in Washing
ton under the increased demands from
eastern markets may reasonably be
expected, by far the greater part of
tho expansion may be looked for in
Oregon. "The reason for the slower
development In Oregon lies in the in
accessibility OF its Douglas fir stands.
Many operations now being seriously
considered for Oregon will require
transportation and other investments
running into the millions of dollars be-
fore any timber can be taken"
Local consumption must be taken
into account in considering the de-

mand upon the forests, the report
points out. The situation in Califor-
MIA is cited as an example. That state
has been an important source of ex-
port material from the earliest days.
Large quantities of lumber are still ex-
ported from it to the east and to for
eign countries, but the states popula-
tion and agricultural and Industrial
development have more than kept pace
with the output of lumber, so that it
Is doubtful whether production has
exceeded consumption since about
1879. THE per capita lumber cut of
the state has been approximately
equal or slightly in excess Of the av-
erage per capita consumption of the
United States since between 1869 and
1879. while the average consumption
of the state is probably somewhat
creater than for the country as

Although the Pacific coast states
have large amounts of timber, the re-

on to supply increasing amounts of
lumber for the whole country. The
danger is that. Ike other forested re-
