DAIRY NOTES

A very interesting meeting was
held at Springfield on February o.
Mr.. Fort, of the Extension bureau,
spoke ON dairying. c. s. Beebe, OF
this city, gave talk on creating es-
tates by means of life insurance.
Quite some time was devoted to the
discussion of establishing a cheese
factory to serve the Springfield,
Sterling and Grandview districts.
About forty of those present ex-
pressed their desire to own and milk
more cows. Dinner was served at
1880 by the ladies of the Spring
field Domestic Science club.
The Cow club have their buying
organization almost completed and
plan on buying carload of two-year-
old Holsteins in the near future.
This first carload will probably be
brought in from Washington and
Oregon.
There are constantly increasing
demands for this class Of dairy ami
NAL from farmers who realize the
advantages of buying only the best,
and who are able to pay for them.
The income from the milk products
of the Immediate vicinity of Black
foot amounts to between $4,000 and
$4,000 per month, and this amount
will be increased in proportion as
our dairy herds are improved.
The work OF forming this organi-
cation has been carried on by the
Commercial club, and the expense.

NEW BOOK OF INTEREST
TO BUSINESS WOMEN

To Women of the Business World
BY Edith johnson. Published BY
B. Lippincott Co., Philadelphia.
| In Miss Johnson's talks ito women
OF the business world" she has
stated some very pertinent facts that
should be not only vitality interesting
to the woman who has not progressed
satisfactorily in her chosen work and
to her younger sister just entering
the commercial neld, but are worth
the attention also of many employ
ers.
All of the varied problems which
confront the woman who thru neces-
sfty or by choice takes up business
or profession have been treated In
thoroly practical and common-sense
manner. The selection of vocation
with reference to the fitness. pre-
paredness and peculiar talents OF the
individual is most strongly empha-
sized by Miss johnson. She says:
Misplaced abilities mean a life
wasted-worse than wasted some
times and quotes the noted author
ity on business, Roger w. Babson,
who has stated, THE Growing work
OF an economical educational system
will be vocational guidance"
Care of the health, appropriate
dress, proper department for the Of
flee and cultivation Of personality
are also matters stressed by Miss
Johnson. She points out that there
is no place in an office for weep
ing Niobe-"Beauty' tears may be
lovlier than her smile in the eyes OF
the poet; but they elicit little else
than evaporation when shed by a
member of the blue serge brigade"
Not only must the business woman
learn how to increase her weekly pay
check, says Miss Johnson, it is just
as important that she know how to
spend it sensibly And she devotes
an entire chapter to discussing 1.-The
value of bank account" and to
the use of the budget system or
"plan for making the best use of
ones resources" Good, nourishing
food and pleasant lodgings, she
points out, are vital matters to the
woman who would increase her earn
ing power.
The fund of informatio nand prac-
tical advice here offered by Miss
Johnson out of her years Of expert
ence and observation should be
vastly helpful to the women who
seek to make their business careers
successful ones, proving that What
has been done, woman can do like
wise. Salt Lake Tribune.

| Excessive irrigation. or soyer-irri
CATION, may be corrected or avoided
FIRST and fundamentally, by better
understanding and familiarity with
the principles that govern the use Of
water In irrigation. Few farmers
really understand the vital and fund
amental principles which are brought
into operation when water Is used
by plants or when water passes thru
the SOIL There should be a more
thoro knowledge among farmers OF
the general relationship that exists
between plants and soils, and finally,
the farmer must govern more care
fully the amount of water which he
applies at each irrigation. He should
note how much he uses. In general,
when more than five inches in depth
of water is applied in one irrigation,
much water is lost by deep percola-
tion beyond the zone of root growth.
If all farmers can be made to under
stand that the quantity of water used
does not determine the quantity of
crops produced, much of the excess
sive irrigation now practiced can be
overcome. Above all, it should be
borne in mind that irrigation can
u6t6T LAKE Il0 PldCO VI o1tiF1eiOAs
Irrigated districts are constantly be-
set with the danger that many farm
ers believe that by applying water
they can escape the labor of cult1vat-
ing the soil. Irrigation cannot with
success take the place of cultivation.
Irrigation and cultivation, hand in
hand, give the best results.
Farmers now contemplating the
planting of wheat, oats, corn and
such other cultivated crops, should
consider the ACCESSIBILITY of planting
them as early as the season permits,
in order to have these crops well
along towards maturity by the time
the water shortage becomes acute.
1t is probable, as result of the
deficiency in water supply, that the
rotation system of irrigation will be
and enforced on the Fort
Hall Irrigation project. 1t is also, OF
course, probable that the necessity of
the case will require the adoption OF
this system on many projects and
under various corporation canals.
The rotation system is the delivery
at stated intervals, and within rela-
lively short periods Of time, of the
same quantity of water to which
water user is entitled under the con-
inuous flow method. For example,
( a water user is entitled to con-
inuous flow of one second foot or
water, under the rotation system he
nay be served with flow of seven
econd feet for one day of each week, !
which would give him the same total ,
of water that he would re-
GIVE under the continuous flow ,
method. 1t would, however, give him
lis water in such a quantity that 1t
would require continual attention on
he part of the water user while 1rri-
ating. 1t Is reasonable to suppose,
8 has been shown in actual prac-
ice, that the rotation system results
a a large saving of water as COM
ared with the continuous flow meth
d. In the continuous flow method,
or much of the time, and especially
uring the night time, the water Is
flowed to run on pasture lands or
frequently wasted into sloughs or
OOls.
