crumble, and retains an open" passage
long after the fiber has decayed.
One method of construction is shown
in Fig. a, Where two boards about
.six inches wide are- nailed together in
a V. shae and laid in the bottom as
man narrow strips among
them, they may be nailed together
JJJS
shown at b. .
P or either of these the ditch need not
be over a spade wide on the bottom.
The fall required for a board drain i3
greater than for round tile. It is well
to estimate same on the basis of three
inches per 100 feet of drain. The deep
eT the drain the farther it will dTaw.
It is not considered, however, good pol
icy to make unusually deep drains in
stiff clay soils. In such soils the drain

11 In 'laying board drains be careful to
have them closely put together, cover

board to prevent the entrance of dirt.
'Cover the outlet with wire netting :to
keep -ct mice, - rats, rabbits and other
vermin. Take particular care to haye
the 'hottom of the ditch perfectly even
and on the proper grade, otherwise it

Ditching grades can Ije easily se

SINGLE J GERM, BEET SEED.
An Improvement That "Will Mean a
Saving 'df ?l,0O0,000 Annual
4y":to Our Farmers.
' The .experimental patch jif single
germ beet eed which was grown on the
Saratoga iarm near LehL Utah, has
Joeen harvested. Prof. Townsend found
that cerlain;. sugar-beet flowers had a
tendency tto (develop seeds of fewer
-germs than mothers. Following this
;bint, he took the pollen of hundreds
of these Bowers and placed it in -similar
flowers of ther beets and tted little
paper bags over'them till they i-ipened
into seed. By -.this method he secured
quite a number tof seeds with but a sin-
gle germ. These' seeds ha planted last
j-ear in Washington, and while they
were growing infto mother beets, he
again pursued the paper-sack plan; and
gathered several thousand others of: the
single-germ variety, and siloed tthe
beets grown last winter in Washing
ton. This spring, -owing to the eminent
suceess attained by Utah in the produc
tion of sugar beets, the experiments
were transferred to Utah, and the sin
gle-germ seed and beets produced from
single-gerth seed were planted. The
closest attention was given to the beets,
and there were no otiter seed beets
grown within five miles, which Insured
them from receiving pollen which might
b carried by insects from plants of
multiplegerm seed. Later, experts will
carefully examine the seed produced
this year and will separate the single
from the multiple-germ seed, and it is
expected that from the beets which re
ceived special treatment SO per cent,
will preve to be of single germ. Prof.
Townsend believes that beets produced
from the seed grown this year will pro
duos seed that will be-more than SO
per eenu aingte-germ seea. ana mat
ultimately he will get a species that
will Invariably produce bat a single
slant, and which wiU mean a saving to
