Interesting ,-experiment-of deep tilluge,1"which has been "suc cessfully tried in California, is be ing conducted on the Joe Cart farm located d few miles from La Grande on the Cove highway. This new method, which may prove revolutionary and far reaching In effects if proved successful, may solve a grave problem for many ranchers iu Kastern Oregon. The device used is a Klllofer . chisel which Mr. Carr and Mr. Herman havo purchased and is drawn by a- "Caterpillar' sixty tractor, which Is being furnished by the Bunting Tractor company. The, Ullage machine consists of flvo curved standards which arc drawn through unploWed ground, penetrating from 15 to 20 inches. Tho soil Is not turned over, but is thoroughly shattered and heav ed to such depth ' as to break through the plow pan. This will alhrw moisture and frost to pene trate to a much greater depth than has heretofore been possible. ' It Is believed that much land In use continually can bo worked Kticcefisfulty this way and that tlil yield will be materially Increased. The operation' is carried on in the I inn anu tnen hiut receiving moist- lire and frost penetration iu the winter, the ground is ready for t shallow spring plowing, then the 1 cultivations which continue, us on any summer fallow ground.
