THE SAN LUIS VALLEY
GOES IN FOB DAIRYING

The San Luis valley of Colorado has
raised 100000 and has put on a five
year dairy program. Max Cranky, a
graduate of the Colorado Agricultural
college, has been employed to direct
this work and will be located at Ala
mosa. Many farmers in this region
have had little experience in dairying.
He will help them select their cattle,
suggest ratfons and farm equipment.
The money was procured through a
campaign for five-year memberships in
the newly organized San Luis Valley
Dairy association. This campaign was
suggested by representative of the
extension service of the Holstein-
Friesian Association of America. The
local leaders were assisted by this as
sociation as well as the extension de-
partment of the Safe Agricultural col
lege, and a representative of the D. &
R. G.. railroad.
The San Luis valley has an ideal
climate for dairying. 1t grows every
thing cow needs to eat, has artesian
water; in fact, it needs just two things
to make this inland empire, which is
as big as the state of Massachusetts,.
great dairy center. These are cows
and dairymen. The San Luis Valley
Dairy association proposes to remedy
these.

SOME SUGGESTIONS ON THE
ECONOMIC USE OF WATER
Mhp4S
SJGARoE

Irrigation is the artificial applica.
ton of water to the soil for the pur-
pose of sustaining plant life. The ac-
tual process of applying the water con-
sists of various methods, such as caus-
ing the stream to flow over the ground
surface, spraying from pipes or nozzles,
or by adding water beneath the sur
face in porous stratum and by capil-
larry action bringing the msisture up
to the root zone of the plant. The
most common and practical method is
that of surface application, while the
sprinkling system is only found prae-
tical under special conditions where
crops of great value are raised The
sub-surface method of sub-irrigation
can only be practiced where under
ground conditions are favorable.
No definite statement can be made
as to the amount of water necessary to
produce crop, because of the various
factors involved which influence the
result. The idea of the amount of
water necessary for the crop must,
from a practical standpoint, include
the principle of economic use; that is,
the amount of water required to give
the maximum yield. This amount of
water applied is reckoned by depth per
acre IN units of inches or feet, usually.
however, in acre-feet per acre.
Experience and attention are prime
FACTORS in the proper application, as
well as the approach to the economic
use. 1t is obvious that variation of
SOIL type and subsoil conditions are
important factors. Slope of field.
method of irrigation, rate of appl;ca-
ton, waste, length of growing season,
etc., are points to be observed nde.
termining the economic use. The ex.
tent of rainfall must be considered in
THIS problem, but involves the question
as to what per cent of the total pre-.
clpftation could be credited as irripa.
''oh' showers, as usual thing, add
iittle or nothing to the soil moisture
and only serve to clean and stimulate
the foliage. Instances are known
where shower of one inch of precip.
