Irrigation as yet is n comparative
ly new enterprise in the United
States. In the "old world," how
ever, it has been practiced f r at
least 3,000 years. I jirge canal sys
tems have there been constructed
Irani time to time as far back ns we
have record. Sonic arc still in op
eration others alter centuriesof tue
have tor muuc retail unknown to
us been abandoned Since we do
not know their histories we can not
profit by the experiences of the peo
ple that (armed under them. We
have had scarcely any tradition to
guide us, hence our methods and
our institutions are very largely our
own product
Irrigation in the Inland Umpire
is a recent development. Though
we have made a remarkable prog
ress, we are still short of having
iltaincd to well ordered niauacc-'
incut iu irrigation farming. We
have as yet but little definite infor
mation in regard 10 the proper use of
irrigation water and there yet re
mains much to be worked out.
Irrigation problems arc rendered
especially complex because of the
tfreat variation iu climate and soils.
Our methods must be adapted to
particular conditions. There is too
much divergence in opinions and
ttfacjices even in the same locality,
hence there is great tieed of placing
irrigation on a more rational basis.
The United States Department of
Agriculture and our western exper
iment stationsaretuYcstlgaling these
matters. The effort is to ascertain
the real facts in regard to soil, mois
ture conditions and thccarnini; val
ue of irrigation water1.' In Idalto
we arc taking up this1 liiic of work
on the auxiliary experiment (arm
lo.ated near Caldwell.
The experiences of irrigators and
the results of experiments have
freely enough for the needs of the
roots.

Not only should there bo thor
ough cultivation of such crops as
permit of it, but attention should
be given to fields after the crop is
removed. I maintain that the soil
on an irrigated turui should at 110
time in the year he allowed to dry
out below n depth of n few inches.
A soil is constantly at work and
gains iu fertility. A drv one is
dead. If kept moist and in it state
of good tilth, plant food is being
elaborated for the use of the coin
ing crop. It is quite ns essential
to cultivate after a crop is re
moved as it is to prepare n good
seed, bed liefore sowing. In other
wordt), we need to introduce a
little of Mr. Campbell's thorough
tillage system on our irrigated
lauds.
So often we see stubble fields al
lowed to lie klle and dry out after
harvest. This Is poor mintage
incut and means that the yield wilt
be less than it need be Such
fields should cither be disced im
mediately after harvest to prevent
the escape-of moisture or should be
irrigated and then plowed Last
November I saw a stubble field
that was being plowed The soil
was dry ami hard as deep as the
plow ran. Maximum results can
not be expected if irrigated laud
is handled in that way.
VALA'lt OI WINTKK I'KltCll'ITATION-
Generally, in irrigated regions,
we pay hut tittle attention to rain
fall. We irrigate when we have
planned to do so, irrespective of
nny showers iu the meantime.
That is all right, at least as re
gards the summer months, for in
Southern Idaho there is rarely
enough rainfall at that time of the
year to be of value. The rainfall
in the spring, however, does vary
to such au extent ns to effect the
carliuess of the first irrigation. The
summer rainfall is -of little conse
quence on an irrigated farm for the
reason that it is so small and be
cause we cannot conserve it. If it
simply wets down to moisture it is
a detriment, for by restoring capil
larity to tuc surtacc moisture is
by buying ihb

generally neglected on irrigated

Irrigation has seemed such nn all

it appears that water "does it all.
To be eminently successful it must
combine with it good 'methods of
cultivation and must take into ac

than water. A good physical con

Cl'IriVATIOtf.
It is a" 'c6mm'6n sayinir anion c
fruit grftrttrs that more cultivation
will take the place of some irriga
tion. It will do that, but irrigation
cannot take the place of cultivation,
which is beneficial jn other waya
than conveying t moisture, for it
opens the soil and promotes those
activities (hat render plant food
available. It should, therefore, U

Cultivation should go hand in hand
with irrigation. It will mean larger
yields; and hence dollars in your
pockets.

plants to throw 6ff the excess

AMOUNT TO'AI'W,Y.
The amount to apply will de
pend upon the particular crop and
the character of the soil. The re
qtiiremeut for water is in the fol
lowing order, beginning with crop
that needs the most alfalfa, wheal,
oats, barley potatoes, corn. The
last two leave mote' water iu the
soil at the time of harvest than the
other crop.'
Hw much t6 apply at one ir
rigation is often asked. Chief
among the things to b.- considered
is the rimbu'nt bf available water
that the soil in question can hold.
Not all the water that a soil may
take up is available for the use of
the crop. Any iu excess of that
which capillarity will retain ' is ' of
,no use to plants. They, do not
thrive iu a saturated soil. Again
crops cannot remove all the water
from the soil, for even a dry soil
contains some water. An plauts
