sense, the natural demands of nature
with respect to their farming meth.
/ DDS. Hundreds of acres have been
spring plowed where fall blowing
would have been more productive
of good results. Many acres were
fall plowed but some farmers then
neglected conserving moisture by
early floating and narrowing. Many
acres spring plowed alas have very
poor stand of beets, as it was diff
cult for the farmer to get a good
seed bed and retain the moisture,
especially on heavy lands because by
turning the cold soil to the surface
and the warm soil to the bottom of
the furrow, spring blowing has
proven very bad practice, more so
In dry seasons, such as this.
Mature this season, only provided
us with one opportunity, to secure a
full stand of beets. Those farmers
who took advantage of the winter
moisture available, by preparing the
land early, conserving the winter
precipitation, by early planting, pro-
perly done, are now rewarded with
full stand of beets.
The future growth and develop
ment of the young beet depends on
the fertility of the soil, its moisture
content, early cultivation, thinning,
wedding and proper irrigation. If
each farmer would calculate the pre-
ventable losses that he sustains each
year, through Indifferent or careless
farm methods, he would be astound-
ed when he discovers his beet field,
particularly anywhere from Is to 25
per cent short of full stand of
beets.
Let us take tract of twenty acres
that could with proper farm meth
DDS, produce twenty tons per acre
at $500, giving proceeds of $4,000
per acre. If on account of improper |
there is a 25 per cent |
loss, or five tons, this amounts to |
$4,000 loss per acre, or $4,000 loss

Duty of Water Users
to Assist Ditchriders

The distribution of the irrigation
water of Idaho gives employment tt
a large number of men. During 6
normal year these men have theil
full share of trouble. When water
is unusually scarce, every water
users anxiety about his crop makes
him very quick to suspect that he
is not getting his share of the scant
supply and adds greatly to the wat
er masters troubles
The organization charged with
the division of the water of the
streams of Idaho among its thous-
ands of individual owners, all the
way from the commissioner of re-
clamation in the state house at Boise
down to the humblest ditch walker
making his daily round with shovel
or fork, is doing it's very best to
make that division fair The har-
vests which will be gathered this fall
depend to no small extent on the
success with which their efforts are
rewarded.
Irrigator's Interests Supreme.
The individual water user is the
man whose interests must be served
in the end. 1t is only as the water
reaches him that it can be of any
service to the people of the state.
the whole system is ar
ranged TO serve the individual irri-
gator and by its success or failure
in so doing it must be rated.
On the other hand, the water user
has a duty in this respect When
ne feels that he is being given the
worst of it, he Should go to the
in peaceful frame of
mind and discuss the matter frank
y. 1t is very much easier to get
satisfactory results by all working |
.ogether than by working against |
each other. Before accusing the |
water master of unfair discrimina-
ion he should look around at his |
leighbor's streams. He will prob
lbly find that they are getting just |
IS small a proportion of what they
ould use as he is. If not, there
nay be some difference between in
Iividual rights. On many canals
took is held and maintenance paid
n different amounts per acre of
and.
Employ Competent Men.
The proper measurement and dis
of water requires knowl-
ldge of hydraulics and experience
l that line of work. Do not expect
man without both training and ex-
erience to be able to meet all the
arying problems which come up on
II canal systems. The competent
alter master can often help the in
ividual canal companies or farmers
nder his stream make better use of
lie water. He can so distribute the
alter that practically all the users
i'll feel that they are getting all

Student Suggests Way
to Improve Farm Life

Leroy B. Clark, Bingham coun
ty boy is attending the U. A. c. a
Logan and writes the Republican
that he has been studying economics
and sociology under leading Amer
lean authority. He has written some
suggestions as a result of his studio!
that he submits to those readers who
may be interested. His article en-
titled, Thoughts for Farmers" fol
lows:
Why do intelligent farmers leave
their country homes and move to
the city? This is an important ques-
ton that is puzzling leaders Of our
nation.
Over three millions Of people have
left the rural communities of our
country during the last ten years.
Many towns in the east have been
almost deserted. In the rich Mo-
hawk valley of New York about nine
ty per cent Of the rural inhabitants
have deserted their homes. Out Of
2100 voting precincts in North Car
olina, 500 are decreasing in popula-
ton. OF ITO homes In a certain
town in Massachusetts,, LOG have
been deserted.
At the beginning of the nineteenth
century only four per cent of our
nations population dwelt in cities.
Today only one-third of the people
live on the farm, and there is such
an overwhelming growth Of our
large cities that they are becoming
a menace to themselves and to CIV
ilization. Only one out of five Of
the people in England live in the
country. One out of every three
persons who die in London Is
buried in the paupers' cemetery. One
out of every seven in New York is
buried in the paupers' field.
The transient, migrating grass
hopper population Of today, dimin-
ishes civilization, causes agriculture
to dwindle, schools to languish,
churches to lose power, taxables to
decrease, civil services to disappear
and crime to increase.
Farmers are not satisfied with
country life. Agriculture Is not as
profitable as it should be, for the
labor and energy the farmer ex-
ponds. Returns do not justify the
risks he assumes, and the social con-
ditions in the country are far short
of their possibilities. The POSSIBLE
tiles of farm life can only be
achieved through highly developed
society of farmers. Farmers have
not successfully coopefated because
Of lack of knowledge, the lack of
for country life, its inability |
to make way against organized IA
cilities, depletion of soils, because
IF lack of new active leadership, lack
If agricultural credit, the inadequate
of public health and the
shortage of labor.
Every farmer should make
friends of his banker and friends of
he business men of his community.
Farmers must learn the "a. B. c."
principles of business. The time has
ome when business sense is funda-
mental to the successful farmer. A
ack of such knowledge is a contri-
uting factor toward the dissatis-
led conditions of country civiliza-
