If there is any one subject that the farmers of the Willamette valley need, above all others, to study, that subject is the drainage of lands. In localities where the matter has received attention it has been demonstrated beyond a denial that crops are accelerated in growth and yield by it more than any other agency that can be employed. .Indeed, wherever it has been thor oughly tried.' it has proved to be the most paying investment that a farmer can put on to his land. The lands of this country re quire the drainage system, per haps, mere than any other locality, not alone because of the excessive rain fall here, but also on account of the dry season that folio s, for it is an established fact that under drains not only draw off the super fluous water in the wet season, but they also supply moisture to the land by admitting the atmosphere through it during the dry season. The atmosphere during the dry season is laden with moisture, though not to the extent to cause precipitation, and by furnishing means for it to permeate the soil, it deposits its moisture by conden sation in the air coming in contact With the Cool soil, thus imrart:,,,,! . 1 ' If . to irive instruction ui drawing, also to the SOll moisture that cannot, be ! of and water color p.int;s.
