ANNUAL FARM BUREAU
MEETING, TOLEDO, JAN. 26.

Farmers Of Lincoln County will be
interested in the annIa. meeting Of
the Lincoln County Farm Bureau to
De held at Toledo, January 26th. This
is an especially important meeting, in
that on This day the officers will be
elected for the year and it is important
that the very best possible men be
selected, as the directors of the act
ivities Of the Bureau and particularly
the carrying ou3 of an important pro-
gram in agriculture will be under their
direction At this meeting also the
program to be followed during the
year is to be adopted Since the men,
bership in the Farm Bureau covers a
period of three years the program ad-
opted will not be arranged with an
idea Of getting wonderful results the
first year, but a start On a program
which has to do with the improvement
of the more basic industries is intici-
pated For instance, q nurebred sire
campaign will be started the object ui

this 1t will be necessary to organize
breed associations in the different
classes of livestock and arrange dur
ing the next three or four years, pos
sibly for exchanging purebred sires
Tor the grades or scrubs. In livestock
disease control it is planned to put
into effect ruling which will require
that all cattle coming into the county
be both tuberculin and abortion tested.
1t is planned also to continue the T. B.
testing work and to abortion test all
the cattle in the county. The value of
this project can hardly be estimated.
So far as known at the present time
there is only one case of contagious
abortion in the county, while thorough
oua tie United States this disease is
causing the largest loss to dairy stock
of any disease. tuberculosis is nex,
At the present time this county is
practically free from both of these dis
eases but with the putting on of live
stock improvement project through
which as a natural consequence a
great many animals will be imported
into the county, unless a special pre-
caution is taken to prevent, this county
as has been the case with other count
les, would soon become badly infected

principle Of dry farming, upon which success or failure
depends.
The question may arise as to how often and how deep
we should cultivate. In answering the first question. it is
the writer's opinion that one cannot cultivate too deep.
In our dry Wyoming lands, the soil should never be
.plowed less than ten inches in depth, and with a cult
waited crop,such as corn, sunfower. potatoes, etc, a mulch
of at least 2 or 4 inches should be maintained. 1t is inn
possible tc state how often a crop should be cultivated,
mulch loose.
Not only is it necessary to cultivate the common Guilt
waited crops, such as those listed above, but fall rye and
wheat can be greatly benefited by the use of a spring
tooth harrow on the crop in the spring before the plants
have made much growth. Alfalfa should be cultivated
well each spring, as the surface of such fields become hard
and packed. especially if pastured in the fall. Such a con-
ldition prevents quick absorption of precipitation and is in
furious to the plant crowns.
Dry farming on our Wyoming land can only be sue
cessful by deep blowing and deep cultivation. The main
tainance of a deep mulch to conserve moisture is of utmost
importance. and in order to maintain such a mulch the
crop must be cultivated frequently. especially after each
rain.

A NOT Pillow TOO DEEP IN r WYOMING
SAYS AGRICULTURAL EXPERT FOR COUNTY
BY G. M. PENLEY
County Agricultural Agent

Dry farming or farming without irrigation is a science.
which, to be successful, requires careful thought and
study together with experience.
The prime motive in all dry farming operation is the
conservation of moisture. When ground is kept broken
on the surface by a cultivator, harrow or other implement,
the moisture in the soil does not escape into the atmosphere
Sc readily, as does soil whose surface is allowed to become
packed and baked. The reason for this is the breaking
up of the capillary attraction below the surface, or the
plugging up of the holes from which the moisture e-
capes into the air.
Ii has been shown by numerous experiments of various
agricultural experiment. stations that the deeper the mulch
made by a cultivator or other similar implement the less
the loss of moisture. The depth of this mulch must de-
pend upon the depth of the blowing; therefore the farmer
who plows shallow must cultivate shallow in order to leave
room for the top roots of the plants. On the other hand,
the man who plows deep can also cultivate deep and will
consequently conserve moisture much more effectively.
The soil as a-whole acts as a huge reservoir for tie stor-
age of plant food. and in order that this reservoir MAJ. not
dry up, a loose mulch, the deeper the better, must be main
tanned on the soil surface, which prevents largely the e-
cape of moisture into the air. This is the fundamental

EDITORS NOTE-Herber Adams Gibbons, author,
correspondent and university professor. has spent more
than 10 years in Turkey, the Balkan states, Egypt and
other parts of the Near East. For three years he taught
in a college at Constantinople. Much of his time has been
spent as a correspondent, in interviewing the big political
figures of those countries.
Gibbons is just back from Constantinople. He was
asked to write, out of his long life in the Near East and
his frst-hand knowledge of conditions, the inside story"
of what is happening on the B~osphorus, the political battle
among the powers that are behind il, and world at large.
And here Gibbons has written the stvy as few other men
