Production Of Wheat
Doubled by Irrigation

Rocky Ford, Colo.-The wheat
production of irrigated farms may
be doubled if farmers follow the
method introduced by 0. H. Grow
Last season he harvested 60 bushels
of wheat an acre while his neigh
bors farm yelled only 80
Mr., Crow demonstrated that bv
planting wheat in rows like corn
and cultivatine it the weld would
be increased Planting wheat by
drill has always been the custom in
this district.
The wheat was planted in rows
10 inches apart. Il was cultivated
twice during the growing season.
The knives and duckfeet were used
on the cultivators. The crops was
planted in October and irrigated
once before frost Irrigation was
used twice in the spring. 1t was
necessary to irrieate every other
row.
One half bushel of seed per acre
was used, considerable less then
half the amount used in planting
wheat by any other method. About
a thire as much water was used for
irrigation purposes as when the
ground is flooded to irrigate the
ordinary wheat coop.
Weeds were easily DESTROYED by
cultivation Clean grain resulted
in ar almost pure wheat for seed or
milling purposes. Harvesting was
much easier than by other methods.
The only extra work on the row
wheat is for cultivation. which costs
about one tenth of the increased
yield. Other farmers are adopting
the method because of its success
in this trial.

 "The Departments principal inter ests is in perpetutity of the salmon industry and to protect this the sea- son must remain closed.

LOS ANGELES. August 20.-Radic
experts today were inclined TO dis
count a report made by +. W. Leroy

The message read:

In his opinion, Leroy said. the mes
sage came from within / 900 miles of
the Pacific Coast. aud if authentic it
was being relayed from one ship to
another at sea.
Both the Federal Telegraph Co. and
the Radio Corporation of America dis
counted the report. and the Federal
company pointed out that Leroy re
ceived the message on 40 TO AZ
meter wave length, whereas all pas
senger ships carrying radio have coo

Consequently. the experts main
tanned. it would have been impossible
for Leroy to have picked up mes
sage from a ship ! 900 miles or more
at sea. No passenger ships, the eX'
perts commented, are known to be in
the vicinity in which Leroy's mes
sage would place them.
Leroy declared that he regularly
