NOTES ON DRY FARMING Variations of Rainfall Among Farmers of Arid Region The present year in the intermountain states has been suited to try the hearts and the philosophies of dry farmers because the rainfall and snowfall have been small. In a recent issue of the Deseret Farmer, Prof. L. A. Merrill reviews the Utah dry farming enterprise from that point of view and makes some very important observations. First, as to the variations in rainfall, the following is the record: Year. Inches. 1879 13.11 1880 10.94 1881 16.88 1889 18.46 1890 10.33 1891 15.92 1899 17.57 1900 11.53 1901 16.08 1909 19.16 1910 (to Aug. 1) 5.39 Commenting upon the foregoing, Prof. Merrill says: "When it is recalled that the precipitation during the first seven months of 1909 was 12.03 inches and that during this year (1910) the total precipitation for the corresponding season was but 5.39 inches it is apparent that this uneasiness was justifiable. Even the most conservative and safe farmer felt, that under these conditions this was to be the crucial year; the year when a severe test would be given the system. The harvest season on the dry farms is now over and the returns from all sections of the state and of the inter-mountain country are at hand and confirm the doctrine of lows the farmer to secure 320 acres instead of 160 as originally. The objects sought by the fellow are: First—Conservation of soil moisture, so that two years precipitation may be available for one year's crop. Second—The eradication of weeds and volunteer wheat; the securing of a satisfactory seed bed and, fourth, increasing the available fertility of the soil. In a recent bulletin from the Utah experiment station (Bulletin No. 105) Dr. Widesoe points out as the most important result of his experiments the conclusive evidence that the amount of water actually required for the soil is increased. Fallow sets free plant food which enables the plant to reach maturity with the smallest amount of water. The profits of dry land grain production are much increased by using only pure seed, and a great many failures are due to the use of inferior seed. If the seed planted is of more than one variety losses are likely to follow on account of the irregularity in the time of ripening which results in the shattering of large quantities of the early maturing grain. Furthermore mixed grain never is as likely to command top prices as grain of one variety. The inadvisability of planting grain containing weeds is too well known to require extensive discussion: In selecting grain the farmer should obtain the best variety grown in his section or in a locality of similar conditions. He should see that the seed is as nearly as possible of one variety and that all weeds, seeds and light shrunken kernels of grain are removed from the seed before the time of planting. The cleaning is quickly and easily done by the use of a common fanning mill, which year (1910) the total precipitation for the corresponding season was but 5.39 inches it is apparent that this uneasiness was justifiable. Even the most conservative and safe farmer felt, that under these conditions this was to be the crucial year; the year when a severe test would be given the system. The harvest season on the dry farms is now over and the returns from all sections of the state and of the inter-mountain country are at hand and confirm the doctrine of scientific soil-culture promulgated in the last few years by the officers of the experiment station. Six years ago the state of Utah established and has since maintained a number of experimental farms for the purpose of testing the possibilities of Utah deserts in producing a crop without the use of irrigation. During these years a great many valuable results have been obtained and a wonderful impetus given to the industry. During all of this time, however, the precipitation has been normal, and above normal, up until this year. This year of drought has been the opportune time for a real test of dry farming methods. That these methods have succeeded is proven by the returns from all of the experimental farms as well as from the results secured from a large number of dry farmers in every section of the state." Prof. Merrill then proceeds to cite instances in various parts of the state to support his claim, but we do not need to recite them. He makes his own summary in these words: "It would be folly to attempt to give the names of the successful dry farmers because the list would embrace practically all who own dry lands. It is generally conceded at Nephi and elsewhere in the state, that the Grace Brothers are among the best farmers to be found in the West. These gentlemen have large acreage and their yield this year was between thirty and thirty-five bushels of wheat per acre." Accepting this declaration of success we find most interest in the outline of methods by which so much grain has been secured from so little water this year plus what has been saved from the heavier rainfalls preceding. Prof. Merrill says: "The principles of fall plowing, of thin seeding, of summer fallowing, and of spring harrowing have been shown to be essential and attention to these details of management have insured success even during this, the driest of years." He proceeds with more detail as follows: Plowing land in the fall and leaving one variety. The old idea that the part that women can play in journalism is limited to a narrow field is rapidly passing away. There is scarcely a newspaper office of any consequence in the United States today that does not have at least one and often several women on its list of reporters. Women are are no longer associated alone with the society column or the fashion department but they plant grain containing weeds is too well known to require extensive discussion. In selecting grain the farmer should obtain the best variety grown in his section or in a locality of similar conditions. He should see that the seed is as nearly as possible of one variety and that all weeds, seeds and light shrunken kernels of grain are removed from the seed before the time of planting. The cleaning is quickly and easily done by the use of a common fanning mill, which can be purchased for about $40. This simple machine should be included in the equipment of every grain farm. CURSE OF BEAUTY IN BUSINESS At last there is a promise of business opportunity for the plain woman. A firm in St. Louis which has lost too many pretty ones by marriage advertises for an "ugly cashier." We doubt if any woman will seriously acknowledge herself as ugly. We doubt whether any woman should. It is true, a French actress, lately in America, was heralded as the ugliest woman in her country. But her face did not back up the bills—she doubtless knew it wouldn't—and the perverse claim was soon perceived to be but the unjustifiable endeavor of an ambitious press agent. By a polite and necessary convention every woman has a certain share of good looks. There ought to be no ugly women. There are none. Any girl accepting a position with the St. Louis florists will do so with a mental reservation. Even if she feels herself less, in the point of comeliness, than she might be, she will be cherishing two or three means of redemption at the of her mind. She will feel that there is yet hope in the beauty parlor, or in dress, or in some one particular pair of male eyes that shall be capable of viewing her differently from all other eyes. If those florists fill their position they need not assume that the successful candidate regards herself as "ugly" or that, even if she does, she is without hope of passing to a higher and more attractive plane.

Prof. Merrill says: "The principles of fall plowing, of thin seeding, of summer fallowing, and of spring harrowing have been shown to be essential and attention to these details of management have insured success even during this, the driest of years." He proceeds with more detail as follows: Plowing land in the fall and leaving it in a rough lumpy condition all through the winter benefits the soil by weathering agencies and this reacts favorably upon the crop. It must be conceded, however, that fall plowed land is more likely to be infested with weeds during the fallow period than spring plowed land. The factor of weediness is met by the Grace Brothers of Nephi. They plow their land in the ordinary way and in the early June of the following year when the weeds and volunteer wheat are well started, give the ground a thorough plowing. They have very little trouble after that in keeping their fallow in good condition. Their yields are exceptionally good. It is generally conceded that the most successful practice is to plow to a depth of from seven to ten inches. In some instances plowing deeper than ten inches and subsolling to a depth of from fifteen to eighteen inches have given profitable results, but this of course involves considerable more expense and unless considerable difference in yield can be obtained would not be found profitable. The "fallow" as interpreted by dry farmers means permitting the soil to lie idle and it is recommended that this be followed every other year; thus the dry farmer has only half of his land under cultivation each year. It was for this reason that Senator Smoot secured the passage of the Dry Farm Homestead Act which al- WOMEN IN JOURNALISM The old idea that the part that women can play in journalism is limited to a narrow field is rapidly passing away. There is scarcely a newspaper office of any consequence in the United States today that does not have at least one and often several women on its list of reporters. Women are are no longer associated alone with the society column or the fashion department, but they come in for their share of hard reporting work. Hardly a day passes on any metropolitan paper in which a woman reporter can not be used to advantage in tracing up a story. Wherever women figure in a story the woman reporter comes in handy, and in these days it is hard to find any story in which a woman is not mixed up in it some way or other. Woman's coming in the field of journalism has been a gradual process. The first daily newspaper in the world was established and edited by a woman. It was the London Daily Courant, first issued by Elizabeth Mallet in 1702. The first newspaper printed in Rhode Island was by Anna Franklin in 1732 and the third paper established in America, the Philadelphia Mercury, was run by a woman with great literary and pecuniary success. The Maryland Gazette, the first paper in the colony, was established by Anna K. Greene in 1767. Charlotte Adams Cornellille, voice builder (Marchesi Method).

French, formerly director of the Idaho experiment station, has a very rational statement about dry farming in a recent issue of the Gem State Rural: In many cases farmers who are located on what is known as dry farming lands will not reap a very bountiful harvest, and in fact some of the unfortunate people will have to receive aid from those who are more favorably situated. It is not safe to depend upon spring crops under dry land conditions. Winter wheat is even this year producing a fair crop under dry land conditions, and this is the great staple crop people should endeavor to grow. In growing winter wheat, sown on land which was summer fallowed the season before, there is a reasonable degree of certainty; but in raising spring grain the land dries out more rapidly, and there is only one year's precipitation to depend upon. When summer showers come, it is not at all certain that every dry farming section will receive its share, so that here and there some one gets left, and the crops fail. That much land which was thought absolutely worthless for farming purposes a few years ago, is now growing good crops under better methods of cultivation cannot be denied; but more discretion should be exercised in selecting the land, and the location where farming is to be carried on under semi-arid conditions. Not every sagebrush plain will be suitable for this work, and knowing this it is part of good citizenship to THE AUTOMOBILE AND THE FARM Much has been said in the press recently regarding the alleged bad policy of the farmers of Kansas and neighboring states in the matter of borrowing money from banks to purchase automobiles, and mortgaging real estate to secure the loans. It has even been stated that a combination of bankers has been formed, and that the banks concerned will loan no more money for the purchase of automobiles, other than those used in the activities of the farm. A man who for many years has been familiar with country banking in Kansas and Nebraska was recently in Rochester, and in response to inquiries declared that this feature of farm business in those states had not been stated correctly. He declared it was true that farmers, within a wide range of a banking town, had driven to the money institutions in high grade automobiles; but that just now their business had more to do with making deposits than with negotiating loans. While it is true the gasoline chariots have at times been purchased with money loaned from local banking institutions, it is said that such cases are comparatively rare. It is plainly intimated that at present there are very few farmers in Kansas who are not in a position to borrow money, for any purpose they deem wise, with few questions asked. Incidentally, it was learned that the automobile is working a revolution in agricultural life in Kansas and Nebraska. Under present conditions a farmer living from ten to twenty miles from a town or city is, practically, a close suburban dweller, for at most less than half an hour's Nasal Catarrh quickly yields to treatment by the agreeable, aromatic Ely's Cream Balm.

That there be and hereby is fixed and levied a property tax for the fiscal year 1910-1911 of four cents on each one hundred dollars of the assessed valuation of all real and personal property within the corporate limits of the City of Anaheim, for the purpose of paying the annual interest of the indebtedness of said City incurred for the purpose of constructing a City Electric Light Plant, together with one-fortieth of said indebtedness. Section 4. That there be and hereby is fixed and levied a property tax for the fiscal year 1910-1911 of ten 1-2 cents on each one hundred dollars of the assessed valuation of all real and personal That much land which was thought absolutely worthless for farming purposes a few years ago, is now growing good crops under better methods of cultivation cannot be denied; but more discretion should be exercised in selecting the land, and the location where farming is to be carried on under semi-arid conditions. Not every sagebrush plain will be suitable for this work, and knowing this it is part of good citizenship to see that people do not place themselves under such conditions that will require public relief if the usual amount of moisture is not precipitated each year. There was an excess of rain and snow in some sections last winter, hence we might expect a decrease in precipitation this summer. The mean precipitation for a year, or for a term of years, will not depart so very much from the mean annual precipitation for that section, taken over a range of twenty to fifty years. The theory that settling up a country, and plowing up the land will increase the precipitation is not proven, and while for certain seasons it may seem almost certain that such is the case, another year like the present comes along and knocks the props from under our theories. We would not, for a moment, cause any undue alarm as to the possibility of succeeding under dry land conditions; but a word of caution to those who rush into places that were never intended for cultivation, unless water could be secured for the land, may not be out of place. As stated above greater care must be given to the character of the soil, and to local conditions, than has been exercised in many instances coming under our observation. No one should expect results year after year from a soil only a few feet, and in some cases, only a few inches above the bedrock. A loose gravelly soil,, with not enough silt to hold the capillary moisture will be a very uncertain soil for dry farming. Even this season, when the drought is pinching the crops in some sections, good cultivation is a saving factor. On account of fair results being realized during the past few seasons with meager or indifferent cultivation people have gotten into the habit of depending more on the chance shower than upon thorough cultivation. It will never do to relax one lota in cultivation, for that is the key present there are very few farmers in Kansas who are not in a position to borrow money, for any purpose they deem wise, with few questions asked. Incidentally, it was learned that the automobile is working a revolution in agricultural life in Kansas and Nebraska. Under present conditions a farmer living from ten to twenty miles from a town or city is, practically, a close suburban dweller, for at most less than half an hour's ride over the improving Kansas roads will bring him to the center of urban activity. This annihilation of the element of time has wrought wondrous changes.The farmers' families are no longer isolated, but can enjoy the privileges of town and city with less actual trouble than is experienced by a suburbanite without an automobile who resides a mile or two beyond the town limits. Thus the farm is brought to the city, and what is still more important, the city is brought to the farm. There are thoughtful political economists in Kansas and Nebraska who see in the automobile, as a farmer's possession, the solution of the problem of preventing undue congestion of towns and cities, for the automobile is banishing the loneliness of country life.

On account of fair results being realized during the past few seasons with meager or indifferent cultivation people have gotten into the habit of depending more on the chance shower than upon thorough cultivation. It will never do to relax one lota in cultivation, for that is the key to success in raising crops where there is a lack of moisture. Deep fall plowing, and the dust mulch made in early spring are the all important considerations. Fall grain instead of spring grain, and enough land so that one half is summer fallowed each year will insure good results where only failure is now experienced.
