Some d you raited ten bushels 10 uie fere, omers niieon, a lew twenty, and one or two got thirty. There are no good reas ons why all of you should not have harvested, at leant, twenty, five bushela this year, if you had farmed properly. Every man can make a crop here; the soil is the moat productive I know of. It is good farming that you want here. It Is a matter of proper tillage. You must conserve the rnoiature. . Cropping will pre serve the humus in the soil and wili'tacrcaM it Professor Scuddor made a atate , ment "which at first seemed ' rather startling.

Put a lid on; and conserve this moisture in your wonderful soil." To do this,, the college farmer sugges ted mulching. - He explained the theory of capillary attraction or the upward ' motion of moist Am out or the ground.

Whttt Wants rarmtrtto wick of a lamp illustiats illary attraction. cap- j The expert suggested that in some sections it may be necessary to prevent surface washing but what is needed here to insure good yields is the preservation of the humus. This may also be brought al out by putting decayed vegetable and animal matter on the land. Humus is an absorbent and re tains moisture and is a producer of nitrogen an element needed for crop growing. continuous wheat growing will burn out the humus quicker than any one thing. You may increase the humus, by crop ro tation, by green manuring, that is the plowing under of green crops such as peas and alfalfa. The growing of corn and of cer tain grasses will build up your soil. Corn , will prove doubly profitable. - ' Use : the legumes; wild pea, alfalfa, etc., they are rich in nitrogen. It takes con tinuous, persistent efforts to get a good stand of alfalfa but it pays. Down in Kansas, some farmers tried for seven years to get a stand of alfalfa and were finally successful. ' r Mr. Scudder is oposed to farm ers persisting in sowing forty- fold wheat He advocated the growing of turkey red for it is better adapted to stand the test of dry seasons and will grade higher at the mills. ' This has been demonstrated by experi ments conducted in , Sherman county by progressive farmers, said the speaker.
