PROGRESS OF DRY FARMING
There Who, Followed Scientific Math
ode Last Year Had Good Crops
Othara Made Failures.
Br W. C. PAt-MKIt, North Dakota.)
The opposition to tho name "Dry
Fanning" Is dying out In North Da
kota. Tha dry weather which charac
terised tha last crop year has been
a good school master. Those who had
followed the dry farming methods had
good crops, while those who had not
often did not have crop enough to be
worth while cutting. It looked queer
to see a field of grain on one field that
would go 80 bushels per acre and tha
nest one go four or five, both having
had the same rainfall, tt la not hard
to understand, thouch. The evapora
tion from a water surface Is 30 Inches
la the state during tho spring and
summer months. This Is more than
the rainfall for a whole year amounts
to, which In the slate varies from 16
to 14 Inches. To have any left for the
crops It la plainly neceesarx to take
steps to save the moisture. Those who
had grown corn and potatoes, who had
disked after cutting tho grain, who
had summer fallowed, who had plowed
under clover or added organic matter
to the toll that Is, where It had been
done In accord with dry farming prin
ciples had from fair to very good
crops this year. It Is generally con
ceded that If there had been a two
Inch rainfall at tho critical time, good
crops would have been fissured all
over the atate. Dy cultivation, this
could very easily have been aaved,
and more, too.
At farmers' Institutes there Is more
call for talks on dry farming than any
other subject. The question often
comes In this way: "What shall I do
to be ready for a dry year?"
While some real estate men are
opposed to tho term "dry farming,"
yet the putting Into practice of
these principles Is what will asaure
the fanner of a crop every year, at
loaat aa far as moisture Is concerned.
It Is those who practiced dry farming
methods laa year that have demon
strated what the state can do In a dry
year. They have been the salt of the
earth.
CARE IN SELECTING CROPS
Those That Will Mature Early Should
Ba Chosen for Dry Farming Tur
key Red Wheat Leads.
The careful selection of crcps and
seed Is necessary for success In dry
farming. Crnpn must bo chosen that
wltl mature early.. Turkey Red wheat
has nreragrd a yield of better tbnn
thirty bushels to the acre for twenty
years, giving it easily the first place
as a dry land crop In this state, saya
the Denver Held and Farm. Other
promising dry land crops nre hulteas
barley, th earliest fairing crop to ma
ture; macaroni whent, a spring crop
which matures early, but for which
the market Is uncertain; some early
maturing oats, the Six Day variety
for Instance, although oats are not an
especially strong dry land crop. Corn
requires constant cultivation and rela
tively but little moisture and can take
the place of summer fallowing aa soon
as proper varieties are developed.
White Australian is the most satisfac
tory thus far discovered, but It lacks
In feeding quality. Alfalfa and Can
ada field peas, which put nitrogen Into
the soil for the grain crops and which
will mature a good yield with little
moisture, are very valuable. Broom
corn Is coming on as something of a
dry crop, while first rank must be
given to thenon-saccharlno sorghums,

One of the first and most Important

Eggs may hatch after two or even
three weeka old but every day will
reduce the vitality. By keeping oiks

There Is no longer any question but
that the modern method of artificial
Incubation has mauy advantages, oveu
In Oklahoma, over the natural ay.
We can hatch our chicks whou we are
ready and not Iocs valuable time wait
