Irrigation Department
Check Moisture With
Soil Anger
BY JOHN E. FIELD

not developed.
But we were mostly concerned
with the amount of moisture in the
soil for sometimes we had to irri-
gate the land either before or o
after seeding. This was very I'M
satisfactory; it seemed to stunt
growth and bake the soil.
1t was much better to irrigate in
the fall, but we could not antici-
pate how much rain or snow we
would get nor how much the soil
would dry out. To irrigate alfalfa
in the fall was risky, as an early
freeze might kill the plants.
What we wanted was a very
damp soil such as would enable the
plants to grow and cover the ground
before irrigating. If the soil at plow-
ing time could be squeezed into a
ball in the palm of the hand, that
was considered very favorable. We
know that such a homely test means
the moisture content was more than
10 percent.
To irrigate or not to irrigate was
the question and when, where and
how to do it.
The Soil Anger
The answer is in the soil itself
and the determination of the mois-
ture content is of prime Importance
and can be quickly and easily de-
termined by the use of a ''soil
auger."
One can get a soil auger by pur-
chasing a two-inch wood auger such
as is used by bridge carpenters and
others framing timbers. Next Sc
cur some ~ inch galvanized pipe
and weld a short piece to the auger
with the end threaded. Cut the pipe
into uniform lengths, about 4 feet,
a length convenient to put in the
floor of the auto or in a tool chest.
The ends are threaded and a coup
ling is provided for each length.
However a T coupling is needed for
the upper end. A short length of
pipe can be thrust through the T
ends to make a handle for turning
the auger.
Bore down until you judge the
auger proper is filled with soil,
withdraw the auger from the hole
and place the soil in a can Oh bucket.
1t is well to keep separate the soil
taken from each boring in order to
get the moisture content at several
depths.
Now take the several samples
and weigh a convenient amount oa
each, place them in pans and dry
them in the oven at a moderate
heat. Next, re-weigh each sample
after it has cooled to tempera-
ture.
Calculating Moisture Content
The calculations are as follows
weight of moist sample, say *
ounces, weight of dried sample, say
As ounces, loss in weight 5 ounces
That is 10 percent of the mois
sample, and 10 percent is the mois
ture content.
The growth of a plant depend
largely on the available moisture

Pensioners Get


COLUMBUS, Feb. Sold age
benefits for Ohioans may reach
a record sum Of $61,3O0,00 this
year, the welfared apartment said
today.
Director Charles L. Sherwood
said $4,000 of the states $4,000
needy aged being helped would get
small increases in their February
checks due to larger %appropria-
tons by the 1947 legislature.
State-federal aid payment reach
a peak Of $4,000, 900. An average
of SAP each recipient, compared
to $40.z6 last month.
Karl R. Babb, chief of the state
division of aid for the aged, said
the February average represents
an IS per cent jump over August
1889. Government records, he said
showed a rise of 81 per cent in
the cost of living since 1889.
Record payments now reflect
the high cost of living rather than
an increase in the number of re-
cipients. fter reaching a high of
139,567 in 1912, the number of
old people getting pensions stead
lily fell off but began a slow rise
last year.
Payments totaled $46,546,884
in 1916 and $57,667,510 last year
with this years payments esti-
mated at $61,3OO,OOO.
The state pays about 60 per
cent and the government 40 per
cent. Ohio ranks second among all
east and central states in average
payment to needy aged.

More than 80 high school foot
ball seniors have been approached
by the firm of Gavin-Quinn and
Piloseno with offers to employ
their talent at the University of
Dayton next fall it was learned
recently. Eight high schools have
been contacted by the U. D. coach
ing staff in what is termed as a
goodwill tour for the purpose of
rebuilding their squad for the next
season. AS is the usual custom of
the HILLTOP" college, "Jim
Grow" set in and played his reg
ular part in the plans for talent
very much needed to bring the
school up to a winning combina-
ton on the 40 gridiron. Despite

Layman's Day Sunday
At Phillips Temple

The Layman's Council of Phil
lips Temple, colored Methodist
Episcopal church is putting on an
interesting program at the church
this Sunday afternoon at $3.50 p.
M. The program will be a celebra-
ton of %Interracial and Layman's
day Sunday. Churches all over the
nation are concentrating this
Sunday, February 8, as National
Brotherhood Sunday.
The Layman's Council has ar
ranged to have three interesting
speakers on it's program. They are
Professor J. Holmes, principal of
Wilbur Wright high school; Aev.
Coleman, executive secretary of
the Federated Council of Churches
of Dayton and Montgomery coun-
ty, and Attorney P. L. Hardin of
Indianapolis, president Of the Lay
mans activities of the Ohio An
nual Conference.
Attorney Hardin, a layman in
the CINE church, has been inter-
ested and active in the laymen's
group for a number of years. He
has aided in it's development and
growth. At present, he is practic-
ing law in Indianapolis, and Jack
son, Tenn. Professor Holmes is
president of the Layman Council

two of its players on the 1947 ALL
Star team by popular votes of the
citizens of Dayton.
They being Ed Spooner, with
2O,499 votes to take second hon.
+ back of AL Lipovsky, who
ranked first with 23,724. Spooner
ranked as the outstanding half
back in the East-West All Star
game played at the U. D. stadium
in the eyes Of the U. D. coach
ing staff, and then the perform
ance of Maceo Cofield, brilliant
end, who played the entire 60
minutes of the game and received
1926 votes and the trophy from
his school for the outstanding
player of the year.
On the second team, another
star was revealed in the play of
Peerless Washington with 1O,269
just a few votes behind Harold
Knoblock of Fairview who won
first team honors.
The value of these stalwarts
were seen and appreciated by the
Dayton population but not by the
coaching staff of U. D.
While Dunbar is not fretting
over the "snubbing," it is however,
the Un-American display of the
Democratic Way of Life" dem
onstrated by a school right in our
midst. These boys will and in
some high ranking college and will
do all right for themselves and
Dunbar will get the credit for
their success, thanks to the efforts
Of Jack Hart and his able assist
ants.

COLLEGE VETS TO GET
INCREASE in ALLOWANCE

Many West Siders will benefit
by the two bills passed by the
House yesterday by overwhelming
majorities. One of the bills was
already passed last summer by
the Senate and now only requires
the presidents signature to be-
come law. This is anticipated. The
other bill differs slightly from
the senate version and must meet
the mutual agreement Of both
houses. Both bills benefit veter-
ans; those in school under the
CT bill and those receiving gov
