It is necessary to do this for the reason that mail! working at his highest powers can only accomplish about so fninch. If Ills energies and time are ex pended on non-essentials the iuipoitant things must go undone) or bo done by some ie else. Concentration on the one esse.itiai object and the elimination of unimportant matters which waste tlmu and energy is the true road to success, Thu nutter of paramount Importance to every resident or this section at this time is the production of a good crop, and ns tins is naturally a farming country the .production of a profitable crop will always -stand first in importance. Unless this can Do done, there can be no bright hopo for the future, We have heard it said that a , railroad line into this district is the most desirable thing at present, in order to take our products to market. But the fact remains that the crop must be produced before it is hauled to market-, and quite naturally we must look to our farmers to produce it. Tho expciicncoof the past two years has .been-ilw. theprop production was not satisfactory. ""With a continued repetition officii a yield no great degree of prosper , ity cnild ever be attained here. With a dozen railroads and poor crops there would be no progress. A country, like a man, inuit be developed from the inside ;outwaid. The construction of a railioad line has never been known to change a climate, but they can't be kept out of a country that produces a big sure crop .me ureai, me iie.sirauie the necessarj pn uiein lor uie people of tins section to solve is how to raise good crops. This is the only tiling that will build us an em pire. . And mat this can be done easily by the application of proper methods is being proven by thousands of successful farmers ,tlie in f end-arid regions every year, under '.nr.. .1 I I I .1 . iLr,,iiLiuii3 jcss lavoraoie man Here pre sented.

If the name scares a fArmer he .Should get better acquainted with it, or nuiLi.uiuujg. snouiu understand Ms business as a crop producer or else apply niiiseit to something that lie loves better than the farm. . And there is every opportunity for every man to know all that has been learned ,tilong tills fine by the most scicntifi: far- .niersof the world. The department of agriculture is constantly issuing bulletins on these deeply interesting subjects, wnicn may be had for the asking. Men like 11. W. Campbell, who are giving their lives to tlie work, are publishing books .and pamphlets which can be purchased for a few cents. The application of the principles taught in this literature is making millions of dollars annually for the progressive farmers. ine all-important thing is to get the iarmers interested along the successful 11.. e. a- . lines oi larnnng and the upbuilding of their homes. While the advent of a raii roa 1 line, a moie convenient ai.d econom ical community government-, the improve mentof roads, the solving of the water .problem, efficient mail service and all these things are needed-, too, for the full est enjoyment of life, they are not so vital to the development of this creat wheat em ,pire as the successful raising of a profita- . Die crop ot wheat. Until this is done .every year, and the matters of luck and insufficient rainfall are eliminated, it will ,be a hard row to hoe. With a sure crop erery year everything else will tome easily And the subject is one of deepest inter cscanu strong attraction. Thousands of .the uejt brainy hi the world are being de voted to science agriculture. The com- nion clods unc',er our feet-, the air we , breath, the waters, we drink and the sun shine furnish a laboratory the possibili ties or wiiteli are rally beginning to be .realized. In no manner whatever can -mnn coins so near being a creator as by plant propagation. JSvery growing or liv ing tiling is only a form or combination oiiotnis or me natural elements. One form is a flower, another is good wheat. .another is delicious fruit, another a spir ited norse, and even the body of man him self is composed of the same elements. But v ith his knowledge man handles all these elements to Ills own advantage that is, if he has the ambition and desire with in him to gather to himself this knowl edge, which It requires no more energy to get than it doe3 to read political "dope" or the tale or sony atrocious criin.o or some , abnormal lack ot moral facultios which cause people, to E9 wrong. , The standing of, "xvoik" lias risen re markably In tire estimation of tho civilized world In recont dears. , People are begin ning to Jiava moro rcape-:t,fpr it, Jt Is not u iiieccssary evil..

It is .iheatbfuj. noble From the Scientific Farmor Deep plowing conduces to a moist sub soil, When laud Is first broken the sub soil is usually dry, In the arid region, but after a season or two of scientific tillage there Is usually a surplus over and abovo tho amount used by the crop. which in times of plentiful precipitation, will leak into the subsoil for future use. Although the roots of tho crops may not come in actual contact with said moisture, the top soli, by the action of capillarity in damp weather, and evaporation and condensa tion In the mulch In dry wcathcr will ab sorb a portion of it, and the full effect of a damp subsoil underneath the plowed ground on a crop may equal from one-half an Inch to an inch in precipitation. In dry weather, when tho ground is not wet enough for caplllniity to act( the moisture still continues to rise, but in the form of moist air or vapor. Cultivation prevents this from escaping into the at mosphere audi during the cool nights, it c 'iidcnscs in the sort topsoll and forms a kind of underground dew, a great help sometimes In days of drouth. The best argument in favor of good work on the farm is that it fills the farm er's pocket and enhances the value of his estate a hundredfold. Since the advent of deep plowing and scientific farm methods, land has increased in value all over the West and will keep on increasing for years to come, for nowhere else in the United States can land be bought for les than ?50 an acre that will produce the crops that our lands produce under our system, which is more economical than irrigation and therefore produces larger profits with a much smaller capital. eaily nil cultivated plants get their Mtipplyof moisture from the soil. This fact shou'd be remembered when nlowlne and fitting the land. The part which the plow plays in assisting moisture to riso by capillarity to the rootlets of the plant, and in modifying the evaporation of the water fiom tho mrface of the land, should be thoroughly understood. If thcsollbe very poi us, the air circulating through it carries off a large amount of inoisturo; if too compact, t e interstices would be so largely closed that capillarity would be weak. In neither case could the best re sults be obtained. The aim of the farmer should be to place the soil in such a physi cal condition as will best promote the movement of moisture from the subsoil to where the roots of the thirsty plant can use it in the hour of need. To accomplish this, the soil must be made fine and then compacted to a considerable depth. Here again, the plow plays an important part, for in order to be mado fine and compact, the soil must firt be lifted so that the in ert mass may bo twisted ami hrnVm, up into small particles. Water tonds not only to ri?e,but to diffuse Itself throuch tne sou, moving from the more moist to the drier parts: and every opportunity to do so tliould be given It. until It reaches the surface of the soil; when it should ba checked. Otherwise the effect of plowing is to dry the land.
