COLONEL R. C. JUDSON
GIVES VALUABLE REPORT.
Three Tests Mwle on Farm Near
Echo, to Prove the Value of Deep
Plowing Recites '. Statistics From
the Nebraska Experiment Stutiou
Showing Result of Deep Plowing in
That Stuto.
In the last Issue of the Climate and
Crop Service, a monthly publication
issued from the office of the Portland
weather bureau. District Forecaster
Beals has the following editorial on
the subject of sub-soiling:
Colonel R. C. Judson, industrial
agent of the Oregon Railroad & Nav
igation company, conducted an Inter
esting experiment on his furm located
In Umatilla county, where the annual
rainfall Is estimated to be about eight
Inches. The soil in this section Is
volcanic ash, and very productive If
well watered.
Colonel Judson marked three small
Datches of equal size, one of which
he plowed to a depth of four Inches,
the one adjoining was left unplowed,
while the third patch which was next
to the unplowed patch, was plowed to
a depth of eight inches. He then
waited until his foreman reported a
rainfall of half an inch, when he vis
ited the place, and found the rain on
the plat that had been plowed to
depth of four Inches had penetrated
the soil to a depth of 13 inches. On
the unplowed land it had only soaked
to a depth of five Inches, while on
the plat plowed to a depth of eight
Inches, moisture had permeated to a
depth of 25 Inches.
Trapped by Sub-Soiling.
From this experiment there Is
great lesson to be learned by the far
mers of Eastern Oregon, where near
ly always a shortage of crops Is laid
to deficient rainfall. It is to conserve
tlie moisture, and not to waste it
either- by allowing it to run off or to
evaporate during dry and windy peri
ods. The precipitation of winter and
early spring can be trapped by sub
soiling, or plowing deeply and allow
ing it to soak Into the ground, after
which the land should be mulched
by harrowing It as finely as possible
in order to lessen evaporation, then
you have your moisture where you
want It, viz.: around the roots of the
plant, instead of in the river as water,
or in the air as invisible vapor.
The soil of Eastern Oregon is por
ous, naturally retentive of moisture.
and many localities, that are now bar
ren and unproductive, would, with a
little cave und attention, become fer
tile, and blessed with abundant crops.
Bulletin No. 43 of the Nebraska
Agricultural Experiment station, gives
a large amount of valuable Informu-ti-in
relating to sub-soiling, and a few
extract therefrom follow:
"Potatoes in 1893 on sub-soiled land
yielded 125 bushels an acre, while on
laud prepared In, the ordinary way
the crop was practically a fullure.
Differences Noted.
In the case of rye, the sub-soiled
land yielded 3U 1-3 bushels an acre,
whereas on land not sub-soiled the
yield was only 2 1-2 bushels an acre.
With oats the differences were nearly
as great, being 44 1-3 bushels on the
sub-soiled land and only 17 bushels on
land not sub-soiled.
'To reduce evaporation to a mini
mum it is Imperative that rainfall
should soak quickly and deeply into
the soil, and this will occur best
when tlie soil and the sub-soil are
oose and porous.
"It has been demonstrated that by
plowing deeply crops can be raised
with much less rainfall than is gen-
erally supposea, ami to piow oeepiy
noes not require mucn niun: nine man
to plow the surface, and It can be
done ut very little additional expense.
Sub-soil plowing conserves moist
ure, but does not pronuee ii. wneie
there Is a hard, dry sub-soil, deep
plowing is recommended, but where
the sub-soil Is loose, gravelly or sandy
sub-solllng Is probably unnecessary.
Under ordinary conditions once In
three years Is often enough to loosen
the sub-soil.
Water Supply Important.
"Understand the nature and condi
tions of the sub-soil on your farm be
fore sub-soiling. It is better to sub
soli in the tall than In the spring. If
the effect of subsoil plowing Is not
apparent the first season, It makes'. It
self felt in the course of two or, tl)ree
years.
' All of the foregoing conclusions de
rived from the Nebraska Investiga
tions may not be applicable In Ore
gon, but It Is tbe available water sup
ply contained in the soil, rather than
the available .plant food, that is the
principal factor. In determining the
sixe of crops, and the conservation of
moisture needs to be studied from all
sides of the question in order that the
riches that annually spring from the
bosom of the earth may continue to
multiply In the right proportion for
the needs of our rapidly Increasing
population.

Trousers came Into use for general
wear with tbe French revolution. The
geutleuieu, the supporters of royalty
and sound constitutional principles,
wore breeches. The "sans culottes,"
who denouueed every one who wore
breeches, finally went beyond their op
ponents and wore twice as much cloth
around their legs In a 'word, adopted
the modern trousers and made them
the badge of a party. Napoleon, whe
was too thin at one period of bis life
and too stout at another to look uiv
best lu small clothes, nevertheless wore
them on state occasions after he hud
been crowned emperor. His army was
the first that wore trousers, and they
kept progress step by Btep with the
march of the French legions.
The French trousers were seen In
Egypt, In Spain, In Italy, In Germany,
In Polaud and lu Russia, and with
them the neat gaiter. People thought
that the manner In which a great con
quering nation clad Its legs was the
correct model, and when the trousers
wearers marched over the wearers of
pigtails and knee breeches at Jena und
Auerstadt a decision was given from
which the world did not care to ap
peal. -c
