Each Spring thaw starts rivulets to fill the potholes and sloughs in the fields, sometimes taking this good botttem land out of produc tion. Farmers are too often resigned at the wastage of this Spring run off. Everyone has noticed the green spots in scorched grain fields where snow had drifted into weeds or trash during the previous winter. This small amount of additional moisture WHERE IT HAS NOT RUN OFF has added several bu shels and a grade or two to the returns from these green spots. The Spring run-off comes usually from ALL-STEEL BUILDINGS AT LOW COST Adaptable to hundreds of farm and industrial uses, Stran-Steel “Quon ■ set” buildings are filling a steadily ■■ increasing need for low-cost, all purpose structures. Available in a variety of sizes, “Quonsets” are framed with Stran-Steel nailable framing mem bers for strength and rigidity and the simple attachment of exterior H and interior collateral materials. — Features include clear-span con struction (except in the “Multiple"), for 100% usable floor space . . . all steel materials, for fira-safety, per manence, and freedom from weather and rodent deterioration. The Stran-Steel framing system permits the easy addition of sections or the " demounting of the entire building ■■ for re-erection elsewhere. Stop in today for details and prices.

To prevent this run-off it is necessary to cultivate the stub ble ground soon after harvest. This cultivation must be done with an implement that leaves all stubble standing so that snow is not blown away. Spring tests for moisture penetration show a greater depth of moisture in land so cultivated. The run-off is absorbed . by the land with little of it going to the sloughs. There is another important way in which farmers are wasting mois ture reserves. In attempting to get by with the fewest possible strokes to complete are delaying their first Spring stroke until the weeds get a good start Of course this is wasteful because it takes moisture to grow weeds. However the great risk is that of running Into wet weather in June so that it is dif ficult to kill weeds and some will will go to seed before they can be killed. Weed control is so import ant in moisture conservation that an early Spring stroke for Sum mer-fallow is essential. Dry weath er is more Ifkely to prevail in April and early May when weeds are tender and easily destroyel. Late May and early June, when wet weather usually occurs, should see the first fallow stroke already done. This would mean the difference be tween success and failure to many farmers. Timeliness of work is most im portant in any program of mois ture conservation. An abundance cf tractor power is essential to ac complish work on time and many large scale farmers could pay for an extra tractor every year through improved crops due to timely work, where acreage is greater than the tractor power available. Night work and double shifting of tractors is extremely profitable on a farm that is underpowered and no good far mer can afford to overlook it Bantist Church Rev. H. D.
