Every good mother wants her child
to develop mentally and physically at

Yet, a shocking fact is disclosed in
a recent survey Of 9,543 children: A
out Of 5 are not well fed according

Good for Growth and Energy
For example. growing children need
TWICE the protein per pound of body
weight as grownups.
Penny for penny, Wonder Bread
gives your child more bodybuilding
protein than the average of meat,
milk, fish and eggs.
Growing children require energy
for work and play.
Wonder Bread is substantial ener-

better than fat for children's growth.

Over-irrigation Will Result
In Low Yields, Low Quality
IRRIGATION Department
By H. I. DUSENBERRY

THE PEAK. of the irrigation sea
son is at hand and water is running
through the bitches and spreading
over the crop and hay land on most
of the irrigated farms in Montana.
About four fifths of the alfalfa, and
over one-half of the native hay in
Montana is produced on irrigated
land.
During June streams supply ample
water, and it is used on land in
large quantities, and applied con-
tinuously to some crops for long
periods of time. This is particu-
larly true of grasses and hay lands.
This kind Of application often re-
suits in low yields, low quality
forage, high water tables and low
fertility in the soil.
Where excessive water has been
applied over a period of years, it
becomes necessary to continue the
practice or reseed the land to diff
ferent crops. This is true because
those shallow rooted grasses which
need and will stand excessive mois-
ture replace all other vegetation.
These grasses are frequently not too
palatable and are low in nutritional
value.
Soil Changes
When land has been maintained
in a saturated condition for most
of the time during the growing sea-
son the soil structure gradually
changes. All the humus is concen-
trated in a surface layer Of one to
two inch thickness, and the soil be-
low that is largely void of organic
material. This makes the soil ex-
treme1y hard to work.
Most of the over-irrigated soils are
low in nitrogen. Since nitrogen is
very soluble in water, the water
carries it away quite readily
The object of irrigation is to keeI
moisture in the root zone. This roo
zone for most Montana crops is from
one to three feet deep. Water which
penetrates below the root zone j
lost to crop production.
The water applied in excess 0
what the root zone will hold be
comes sub surface water and travel
under the ground until it comes t
hard pan of some kind whicl
brings it to. the surface. When thi
happens, we have a Doggy condi
ton which reduces the value of tn
land Many examples of this oc
cur throughout the irrigated area
of the state.
Land Preparation Essential
Probably the chief reason fc
irrigation is that the land
not in shape to irrigate easily an
quickly. The labor required to i
rigate in Montana varies from abol
six man hours to one-fourth of a ma
hour per acre. This does not tai
into account the continuous wi
flooding with large heads of waite
When the labor required is as 10
as one-fourth man hour per acl
the tendency is to do a better j,
