CORN SHOW OPENS TODAY
All Roads Led to Bismarck a.
Visitors Began Flocking to
Exposition
Perfect Weather Conditions
Expected to Bring Exhibits
to 700

Corn came into it's own today
with the opening of the sixth an
nual State Corn Show.
For weeks and l,lonths members
of the arrangement committee have
scurried about the city and state,
perfecting arrangements for max
ing the corn show the best ever held
in the state.
Today, the opening day Of the
celebration, every indication was
that the work of the committee had
not been in vain. Even Old Sol out
did himself for the occasion, and the
perfect Indian summer day was ex-
pected to bring exhibitors and visi-
tors from all parts Of the state.
Although the official opening
date Of the show was set for TODAY.
judging of the exhibits will not start
until tomorrow. Sponsors of the
show reasoned that exhibitors will
be busy the greater part Of the day
in arranging their specimens and
the work Of placing the corn on
racks for exhibit would be ham,
pered.
700 Exhibits Expected
Late arrivals Of corn early today
brought the total number of exhib-
its to approximately 600, with an ad-
ditional 100 specimens expected to
arrive today. The exhibits, sponsors
Of the show Geclare, represent prac-
tically every county in the corn
growing regions Of the state and
many sections that were not repre-
sented in previous shows staged
here.
Exhibits casually inspected by
members Of the group at the Inter-
national Harvester Building, where
the show is being staged, indicate
that the quality Of the corn is bet
ter than for several previous years.
Farmers Tho gathered at the
building early today expressed the
belief that although corn in some
districts was hit BY an early frost,
the crop as whole was very profit
able this year. They pointed to the
high prices prevailing for hogs and
livestock, and expressed belief that
farmers marketing their corn ION
the hoof' will have . most profit
able season.

Cut Worm Bait

The cut worm in some places in
the county has become a serious
pest and methods of control are
rather difficult due to high winds
at time of greatest damage. If the
bait will be distributed late in +he
evening when best results may be
ootalned from the control stand
point. it will also be found that
the wind will cause less destruc-
ton of the bait except in the case
Of heavy wind storms.
The following bait has been rec
commended: Coarse bran 16 lbs:

quarter h.; salt, quarter h.: mo-
asses, l pint; warm water to make
crumbly mash.
1t is best to mix the pint of
molasses In to 10 quarts of wa
ter. Mix the bran and calcium ar
senate and salt dry, then add the
molasses solution to the bran and
poison mixture. This will probably
leave the mixture too dry and e.
nough water can then be added to
make a crumble mash and care
must be taken that the mash mix
ture is dry enough that it will not
stick together or form a ball when
squeezed in the hand but still re-
main crumbly.
II this bait is spread as late as
possible in the evening few birds
will pick it up. This bait must not
be used where chickens have the
run of the area to be treated. The
above amount should treat one
acre of badly infested ground.

Poultry Brooding Meeting
Poorly Attended

The poultry brooding meeting,
held last week in four commune
ties by w. D. Buchanan and the
county agent. were poorly attended
without a single exception. We re-
alize that it is busy time but we
can not expect to secure the as
sistance of specialists unless peo-
pie are interested enough to attend
meetings. 1t is probable that the
county agent was the one at fault
in scheduling meetings at this sea-
son. At any rate it is probable that
the poultry specialist will not be
scheduled for further work with
poultrymen until at least late in
in the fall and possibly not until
the next winter schools.

THE DUTY OF WATER

In spite of the completeness witt,
which the subject "Duty of Water" has
Eeen treated, there still seems to be
Gems derable confusion especially among
farmers as to the correct meaning of
the phrase.
The DUTY of Water" strictly speak
ing, is the relation between the water
USED and the area of land served. L.
the amount OF water used per acre
is low the duty is high. If the a.
mount OF water used per acre is high
the Duty" is low Or, to put it cor
elsely, the higher the use per acre the
lower the duty" and vice versa.
The average duty Of WATER under
the Sunnyslde canal in the Yakima
Valley at the present time is three
acre-feet per acre on the Wapato pro-
1ect the average duty is between six
ana a. seven acre-feet Per acre. Hence,
II only three acre-feet per acre were
used on the Wapato project it would
e. considered high duty" while if
SIX or seven acre-fcet per acre were
used on the Sunnyside the duty"
would be considered very low.
The first and most important stem il,
any water control work is to determine
the proper duty of water for the land
.tryed. The Irrigation Branch Exper-
lnnent Station at Prosser has exper-
mental work in progress which It is
hoped will furnish needed information
on this point. Among these expert
merits are water measurement Of sur.
face run-off, the requirements of diff.
rent crops, losses in farm fumes anc
bitches, evaporation losses, percolatior
losses ct cetera. The most promising
results so far. obtained have come fron;
the experiments on, the "water 1,oldins
cali acity" Of the SCI. It has been
found that most Of the soil on the
Station farm holds about two inches
OF water per foot after irrigation. and
that under normal conditions it is need
less to apply more. than one inch per
foot at each irrigation. However. It 4,
necessary to apply, in addition to this
enough water to provide for surfacs
run-off and also enough to OCCASIONAL
ly reach the root zone of the soil.
