HOW THE GULLIES
CAN BE RECLAIMED

or Timber Recommended.
Farmers Should Build SolI-SaVina
Dams That Check Erosion and
Cause the Filling of Space
With Silt.
prepared by the United States Department

prepared by the United States Department
of Agriculture.)
Gullies are u source Of great loss
to the farmer. They ruin fertile
land, interfere with farm operations,
undermine buildings, encroach on pub
lie roads, endanger the life Of stock
and mar the beauty and lower the
market value of the farm. They can
be prevented by increasing the abb
sorptiye capacity of the soil by till
ing, protecting the surface from
erosion by proper cultivation, and by
conducting the surplus water from
the field at a low velocity. Gullies
can be reclaimed by plowing-in and
seeding to grass or timber, or by
building soil-saving dams that check
erosion and cause the filling Of the
gully with silt.
in checking outlying, the first thing
is to stop 1t at the head. If possible,
tie water should be turned into
natural water-cOurse before it reaches
the head of the gully. In shallow
gullies, a dam built close to the head
will give fill of soil in short time.
In deeper gullies, longer time is
necessary according to the condition
and amount of washing. Brush and
straw, firmly fastened down, make
good dam for stopping erosion.
In regions where timber and brush
are plentiful good results in filling
gullies have been obtained by the use
Of brush dams. In hillside gullies
where the flow of water Is small the
dams are commonly built Of loose
brush sometimes weighted down with
logs. Where the flow is enough to
oyertop the dam, the brush can be
held down by crosspieces and stakes
Simply dumping the brush into a gully
will not give good results.
Before beginning to reclaim gully
with sol-saving dams, the entire work
of reclamation should be planned. II
only a part of the work is planned
it may not fit into the complete re
clamation work which may be under
taken later. After the head dam II

ends in the side Of a deep drainag
channel, the lower end must be bull
up with high dam. The higher tn
dams the fewer will be required, bu
several low dams are less costly thaI
one high one and are more easil
constructed. A low dam also require
less care and attention than a hig

DODDER WILL HARM ALFALFA
Where Farmer 10 Planning to Let
Crop Stand for Seed II Is Wise
to Look for Weeds.

If you are planning to let alfalfa
stand for seed look your field over for
dodder. Once is not enough. It should
be done several times before cutting.
Alfalfa seed containing dodder seed is
unsalable In some states and is dis
crlminated against in all markets. It
Is impossible by any known method to
free alfalfa seed Of the large-seeded
dodders. The only practical procedure
is to see that the field is free from
this pest.

INTEREST IN BETTER STOCK
Purebred-Sire Movement Is Making
Rapid Growth; Enrolment
Passes 5000 Mark.

With the growing understanding Of
the utility value of purebred live stock
and especially purebred sires, the list
Of persons enrolled in the Better
Sires-Better Stock" campaign is rap
idly increasing. The middle Of Au-
gust it passed the 5000 mark, signify
Ing that many persons have filed
statements with the United States De-
partment of Agriculture that their
livestock breeding operations will be
conducted henceforth on a purebred-
sire basis. This includes all classes Of
domestic live stock, including poultry.
In some counties of limited area the
number Of farms Is relatively small.
Gordon B. Nance, county agent of
Oldham county, Kentucky, points out,
however, that although his county has
only 1,0S6 farms, 10 per cent Of the
farmers have signed enrolment
blanks, which signifies active particl
patton in systematic livestock i'm
provement work. Other counties in
which 10 per cent or more Of the
farmers are using purebred sires ex-
clusively are: Pulaski county, Vir-
ginia, SO per cent; Kittitas county,
Washington, 1S per cent; Greene coun-
ty, Ohio, 13 per cent; and Orange
county, Virginia, 10 per cent. In this
connection the bureau of animal In
dustry points out that the proportions
are for all farms and that the per.
centages for farms in which live stock
is the principal market product prob,
ably would be much higher.

only 36000,000 sheep in the country
as compared with 64,0OO,00O in 1903.
This is decrease of 43.7 per cent
during a period when the population
increased steadily. 1t Is hardly prob
able that dogs are responsible for
such a reduction, but, in the opinion
of the author, there would be many
more sheep in a great many farming
sections if there were more good dog
laws backed up by public opinion. The
possibility of producing early-matur-
ing lambs from a maximum Of pastur-
age and inexpensive roughages, and
the country's need for an increased
supply of meat and wool, he cites as
reasons why sheep production should
be one of the most profitable enter
prlses of the farm.

laws, the bulletin devotes some at
