SPRING FLOOD WATER
INSURES GOOD ALFALFA

From County Agent Warden)
A luxuriant growth of alfalfa 25
PAGES from a spot where there is
practically no growth Is the con-
trast to be found on the Oscar
Nelson farm east of Bainville. The
luxuriant growth Is explained by
the two dams constructed by Mr..
Nelson a number of years ago to
retain spring food water on part
of his farm and the small growth
is explained by the lack of water.
The watered part gives a good an
nual hay crop while the unwatered
portion may or may not produce a
crop worth cutting.
Mr.. Nelson states that his
spring flood irrigation project was
constructed in 1917. He usually
floods so acres and by making
some improvements hopes to irri-
gate at least 200 acres in the fu-
ture. Due to the small amount of
flood water in 1881 but 25 acres
have been covered. This is pro-
ducing a good crop while the I'M
watered parts r practically
bare.
Flood irrigation is possible on a
number of farms in this part of
Roosevelt county where spring
run-off provides abundant mois-
ture for hay crops. Several farm
ers are now considering this as a
means of providing more abund-
ant feed supplies. A few we'll
placed bitches and dykes are all
that are necessary to hold the
water where it will be OF real
value TO the farmer.
