A gain of thrco buntialH of grain por ncrn was obtained nt tlio Moro branch Htatlon by early plowing and a slmllnr benefit by clean culti vation. "Introduction of tlio strip method or Irrigation, the determination nf hIco and length of run saved much time, water and money.

Bomo C000 acres havo been converted from wild grass to clover and tlmothv meadows. "A saving of 50 por cunt of thtn water now used would about double tho Irrigated nreaH In sections where cultivated areas tiro limited by tho available water for Irrigation." Dust methods, of tiling white lands In western Oregon havo already boon ascertained. An experimental drnln iiip r'steni has be,en Installed at the Astoria branch station and data has been obtained on reclamation of tldo and overflow lands. Drainage and Improvement of Irri gated, wator logged and alkali lands aro also bolng studied. Tho .1,000, 000 acres of wot lands In Oregon aro said by Professor lowers to offer promlfio of Increasing production. Agricultural and soli surveys havo been nindo on most of tho Irrigation and drainage projects to determine tho extent, properties and adaptabil ities of different soils. Altogether 2 million acres have been reported oh as feasible. General soil surveys havo been made by tho station on ti reclamation project of 2' million acres. Six aroAB havo been soil survoyed by tlio federal bureau of soils. Detailed Burvoy by tho government nnd col lege has been completed for (lvo counties.
