ing and improved ditch or dixie layouts.
The most successful farmers seem
to be those who have included sufficient
money or time in their plan of operation
to irrigate according to a schedule.
Those who more or less hold to this
schedule are the ones who got high
yields and have very little loss from
drouth. In these cases the only diff
Guilty is from over irrigation on certain
+ soil conditions.
Crops Surveyed
Now we will review some of the spe-
cific crops which the survey included.
The data have not been tabulated yet
but some of the most common observa-
! tons can be reported. sa
PASTURES. Irrigated pastures are
usually too wet or too dry. A few are
irrigated properly every week. or ten
days during the peak water require
ment months. Sub-irrigated pastures
maintain fairly good uniform moisture
condition. Fox-tail is showing up in pas
lures all over the state It may be due
to moisture condition but it is more
likely that the trouble is lack of another
crop growing there. Probable reason for
losing the grass and legume seeding is
this extremely variable moisture con-
dition throughout the growing season.
GRAIN. Small grains get one to three
irrigations with one and two being the
most common. The first irrigation is
usually delayed until the plants shade
the ground. There is some tendency in
few cases to irrigate too late after
the grain is in the dough.
CORN. Corn usually gets one to three
irrigations, depending on the locality.
The first irrigation is usually quite late
if moisture can be held by cultivation,
etc.
POTATOES. Potatoes get two to five
irrigations in the season. Usually the
first one is delayed as long as possible.
After the first, the good growers irri-
gate every week or two to keep a uni
formly moist condition The irrigations
are light and the water level in the |
rows is kept below the seed piece The
common mistake in irrigation of pota-
toes is to space the irrigations too far
apart or to hold the water level too
nigh in the row.
BEANS. The first irrigation of beans
S delayed until the beans start showing
lrouth. From then ON they usually re-
,eive water every week or two until
hey are allowed to dry up for harvest.
some farmers irrigate every other row
o avoid getting on too much water.
n all. beans usually get from two to
i've irrigations, depending on the soil,
ainfall and the farmers conception of
eed.
SUGAR BETS. Most of the sugar
eet growers try to provide the kind
f moisture situation they think the
eet should have. The concept of proper
irrigation varies somewhat. Most farm
RS like to put off the first irrigation
S long as possible. The popular theory
that the roots will go down deeper
nd faster looking for moisture and
MS will make a better beet. Many
armers Intentionally let the beet suf-
sr or wilt down quite badly before
ne first irrigation is applied. It was
ound that beets will wilt down and
ave. dark or drouthy appearance
efore the moisture in the root zone

There is considerable variation be-

Survey Shows Irrigation

the labor or water supply is the limit
ing factor. In this case it is matter
of the crop waiting its turn for water
rather than application according to
need.
False Security
Rain has established false security
and induced many farmers to delay ir-
rigation. This moisture disappears
quickly when the rains stop and few
hot. dry days come.
Structures to give better control of
the water have improved materially in
the past 10 years but there is still much
to be done.
On the IS farms surveyed 1914 per
cent were using the wrong method of
irrigation. This does not imply that
those using the right method all had
perfect operation. Low irrigation eff
cheney is ordinarily the result of setting
water too long in one place. Long sets
arc usually the result of labor shortage,
poorly prepared land or running water
too far from the turnout. These are all
very common irrigation faults in Mon
Montana farmer-stockman., 1955-09-15

WE SPENT the major portion of the
irrigation season this summer on the
farms and ranches observing irrigation
methods and practices in the major Ir-
rigation countries of the state. This
was an effort to find out the problems
and to correlate research with farm
practice. The survey was also for the
purpose of finding the basic needs and
improving our recommendations for
irrigation.
The experience gained by this. sur
vey certainly points out the wide va
riety of soils and conditions to be taken
into account by the irrigators on Mon
tana farms. Some of the impressions
gained may be of interest, so we will
mention a few of the more common OBJ
servationS.
Those farmers who have ample labor
and water at all times either irrigate
when the top soil becomes dry or the
plant gets dark in color and shows wilt.
For some crops, irrigation is done some
what by the calendar or by the stage
of growth in the crop. On many farms

". {. Opposed TO Indignation In Schools

Raleigh, N. c., April 81
The North Carolina House
this week unanimously adopt
ed a resolution declaring that
the General Assembly is OPP
posed to mixing of the races
in public schools anywhere in
the state.
House action came after
both House and Senate Edu-
cation Committees had acted
to make more emphatic the
resolution introduced in both
branches of the Assembly
last night. Senate action ON
the resolution is expected
Thursday.
The resolution, backed by
Gov. Luther Hodges and re-
quested by Atty. Gen. Harry
Mcmillan, now declares 1.-THE
mixing of the races in the
public schools within the
state cannot be accomplished
and if attempted would alien.

it clear the Legislature feels
Indignation cannot be accom-

The House group felt that as
originally introduced the reso-
luton implied that integra-

places in the state.
Before passing the amend
ment and speeding it on its
way to the Senate, the House
overwhelmingly defeated an
amendment by Rep. Phil
Whitley of Wake. Whitney
asked that the secretary of
state be instructed to send
copies of the resolution to
each member Of the u. S. SUI

by Rev. John Johnson, : the
pastor, while the euIogy was
delivered by DR.. Charming III.

/, Walter White had been i'll
for Several months. and had
been oh, a months vacation in
an effort to recuperate. He
had visited Haiti and P1erta
Rica. Following his return
home, he visited his offices
for about two hours on Mon
day, a few hours prior to his
sudden passing. He died of
coronary thrombosis. He was
81 years old. His wife, Mrs.
Poppy. Cannon, and DR.. Ste
phens, a neighbor, were at his
bedside at the time of his
passing.

Spingarn, president of the
NAACP, expressed it thus:

ton for the Advancement of

sense of deepest regret the
loss of the sudden passing of

ployment of teachers on an
annual basis.
Under present law, teach
er's contracts are continued
unless they are notified to the
contrary by the end of the
school year. The attorney
general has told the Legisla-
ture that teachers contracts
are with school districts.
Since some realignment of
school districts is in pros
pect, there might be teachers
holding contracts with dis
tricts no longer i'm existence
if the law is not changed.
Maddrey and Hicks were in
structed to include in their
bill a provision that if the
job for which a teacher is
employed is terminated dur
ing a school year her con-
tract would be terminated.
This apparently was pro-
posed in case the Supreme
Court decision should Acome
down In the middle Of a school
year. 1t would make possible
the termination of contracts
before the year ended.-Roa-
