Far back among the also-rans

may be an indication that farm

ton of an additional 100 acres Of
land above the ditch. This virgin
soil, cropped for the first time this
year, produced the best crop Of oats
(91 bushels to the acre. and wheat
ever seen on the farm and of course
paid for this installation many times
in this first year. The cost was
about 5000. The unit is mounted in
the ditch with concrete castings and
is belt-powered by a tractor when
the need arises.
Diversification is the key to sue
cess in modern farming, according to
George, and his farm is a living ex-
ample. This years cropland includ-
ed 35 acres of potatoes, 1875 in grain,
200 in alfalfa and the balance in
pastures. A good herd of 40 Hol-
stein grade milk cows puts him in
the dairy business. Two-year-olds
are sold from a 300-head Hereford
beef herd each year, which also puts
him in the cattle business. Then,
ordinarily, from 1000 to 5000 tur-
keys are grown for the holiday mar
ket, but last year only 200 were on
the farm.
This kind of Investigation calls
for plenty of hard work, but the
Georges have things organized to
take care of it. Mrs. George, with
daughters Olive, Leona and Gloria,
keeps the house and dairy under
control, while Guy Jr. has charge
of farm machinery and also works
with the cattle. Two of the girls
run the dairy and another helps
Mrs. George cook and run the house.
Everyone helps out during harvest
ing if necessary.
Electricity plays its part in the
farm and home operation also. The
large remodeled farmhouse is COM
pletely electric with electric range,
refrigerator, walkin freezer, dish
washer and washing machine. Cows
are MIXED by electricity and sepa-
rating and other dairy barn chores
are also taken care of.
Full use of modern farming meth
DDS is another reason the George
farm is one of the best in the state.
Artificial frost was used this year

The first frost didn't come until
Oct. IL, but the chemical frost was

Pumping Irrigation Pays
Deep Well System Waters 400 Acres
Irrigation Department
BY JERRY LESTER

DOES PUMPING irrigation pay?
The answer for Guy George, Madi-
son county, is an emphatic yes-de-
spite the fact that his irrigated land
is also served by a ditch. Supple
mental well water available by
pumping before the ditch was filled
this spring gave him a 70-bushel to
the acre yield on one small 8-acre
winter wheat field. Without this
water he estimates his yield would
have been not over one-third of
that amount. The profit on this
n small field was almost $1,000.
The 2,000-acre diversified farm
includes 900 acres of crop land of
which 400 acres can be irrigated
with this well pumping unit in
stalled five years ago. The well and
pump are located on the highest
point on the 400 acres, so any part
of it can be watered at any time
despite the condition of the ditch
that also serves the farm. Low
bitches and washouts, making the
water supply sometimes uncertain,
were the reasons for the installation.
Pumped IA Days
During one period of ditch trou-
BILE, George pumped water onto his
10n1 frnno tho xxyn11 for Id 1oyc
straight. The big pump is a turbine
type powered by a IS h. p. diesel
engine and has a capacity of $50
inches. The we'll develops about 100
inches of water, and George adds
that the pump would operate more
efficiently with a smaller, 40 h.. p.
engine. Water is lifted IS feet from
the 125-foot-deep we'll and flows at
1900 gallons per minute with the
diesel pump.
Cost of the well and pump install
lation was about $4,000, but having
water when the ditch failed has
more than paid for the unit in good
crop yields. The pump costs about
$3.50 a day to operate, using about
two gallons of diesel fuel an hour
One 23-acre field of alfalfa was ir
rigated last year for $46, or jus
So an acre-actually less than thu
cost of ditch irrigation on the farm
according to Georges own figures
1t is admitted, however, that main
tenance costs on this ditch are un
usually high.
Another small 4-inch submerged
type pump installation permanent,
mounted in the ditch allows irriga

Construction Forms Beneath Bridge
Burn, End To-day Fire Lull Here

building at the south end of the
bridge. Some of this building was
burned in the fire, but it had
already been condemned by Fire
Chief Henry Asman as fire haz-
ard and was to have been razed
soon.
Front end of the old blacksmith
shop is now unused, but Mr.. and
Mrs. Ted Dodd and Charles En-
inert reside in the rear.
Wednesday was the l07th day
since the last fire in Marysville,
according to Chief Asman. Last
fire prior to that was Aug 81
when some cork insulation in
walls of the old ice plant in the
Ohio Water Co. building caught
fire.
In compiling MS figures, Cffef
Asman had to go back to 1926
to find another fire-free period
equal to the one just ended. In
that year, there was a 108-day
period-July 3 to Nov. 3-With-
out fire. longest period on rec
ord, however, was in 1916, when
there were 165 days between fires,
extending from Feb 20 to Aug IL.

Marysville's longest stretch
without fire since 1926 came to
an end Wednesday. noon when
timbers underneath the bridge
being constructed on E. Fourth
st. over the Town Run caught
fire. No serious damage resulted
from the blaze.
Harold Hyland, assistant fire
chief, said smudge pots being used
beneath the bridge to keep new
ly-poured concrete from freezing
set fire to lumber in the bridge
forms. Since these forms were
merely temporary construction to
hold the concrete in place until
it had set, only damage was loss
of the lumber itself.
Flames crept from the bridge
work into the front end of the Old
Dave Blue blacksmith shop frame
