Rock Stratum Causes
North Slope Alkali

AAN AA14SAE I'm tic MOuIdud d11lt-
er-Stockman of Sept 1, 1854, entitled
''Why That North Slope Alkali" asks
the following questions:
1. Why does it occur?
2. Why is it on North Slopes?
3. Why is it Increasing?
4. Why is it on Summer Fallow?
5. How Can it be Controlled?
There is always a solution to every
problem although at times it may elude
us. This is no exception. will attempt
to offer a solution.
To begin with, it is entirely mat
ter of geology. Practically all of the
cases of alkali mentioned by the author
of the above article, occur in the Colo
RADIO Shale on the north side of the
Highwood Mountains where the dip or
slope of the stratum is toward the north
and away from the uplift of the noun
tainS. Other similar alkali spots occur
In the Eden area, in the area a few
miles west of Cascade, and in the area
a few miles west of Gore Field. Also
In the area few miles southwest of
Conrad and many other localities. Most
but not all are in the Colorado ShaIe
with its water bearing stratum, such
as the KoOtenai formation, the Mowry.
and the Virgelle Sandstone.
1. Why does it occur? When we have
rain or other precipitation, the water
percOlates downward until it reaches
Shale or other impermeabIe stratum.
There is usually permeable sandstone
or limestone stratum on top of the i'm
permeabie stratum. The water travels
down the slope or dip through the per-
meable stratum and eventually appears
as a spring at its Outcrop. Or if
stream Or river cuts through the upper
OutcrOp of the permeable stratum. it
may feed great quantity of water
into it.
Giant Springs at Great Falls, the larg-
est spring in the world, is a good ex-
ample of this.
If the outcrop is covered by a few
feet of soil, the water is drawn to the
surface by capillary attraction where
it evaporates, leaving the salts it has
accumulated in its travels, and we have
an alkali spot, which is sometimes quite
Swampy.
2. Why is it on north slopes? The
slope or dip away from the mountains
is quite flat. When the slope of the
ground surface toward the river is
sleeper than the dip of the stratum,
the stratum outcrops, naturally on the
north slopes.
8. Why is it increasing? For the last
Is years we have had higher than aver
age precipitation, therefore, a higher
than average contribution to the flow
of water in our permeable stratum. 1t
may be remembered that during the
drought in the 1905, many of our larg-
est springs stopped flowing.
A. Why is it on summer fallow? For
the same reason that it appears on
hay or grass land or crop land.
S. How can it be controlled. In nu.
merous ways. If cost is no object, q
drainage system properly designed and
constructed, will accomplish the OBJ.
jective. Probably the most practical
way is to wait for few dry years

doing to ease the farmers burdens.
There is simple. dependable control
system which operates barn ventila-
ton fans according to interior tenn
peratures. They help keep barns cool
in summer by turning on fans when
the indoor temperature gets too high.
In cold weather. they automatically
smut OH ventilation systems when
temperatures drop below the comfort
point for cows.
Other controls are used in fruit
and root storage houses to provide
ventilation only when the outdoor
air Is cooler than that indoors. In
doing this. they provide maximum
cooling and eliminate the chance of
drawing warm outside air into build
ings. Also. there is q combination
humidity controller and water valve
which operate together to add mois-
ture to the air IN egg storage rooms.
High moisture content Of air is essen-
tial in such locations.

Livestock farmers, too, find that
automatic controls play an important
part in operating heating elements
70 warm stock waterers. TemDera-
ture controllers have many uses on
the farm. They watch over soil heat
ing operations; keep the hot blast Of
crop dryers in line, and operate mo.
tors, electric heaters and electric re-
quirements.
Another type Of control keeps a
weather eye" trained for frost
which might damage orchards or
crops. When the temperature drope
suddenly, 1t sets off an alarm to warn
the farmer to take emergency meas.
ures. Without these and other:siniIar
devices. the farmer, who thinks ho
should be at least two men to Get al
his work done, would have to divide
himself into several more personaiJ
tiles to handle the. jobs that controls
do Tor him automatically.
