MISS HAMILTON SLIGHTLY INJURED : MO ACCIDENT afEDFOKT) J.ki-lll.!.ii -UJ'.-l"-'- . IS (The first of a series of nrticlis discussing agricultural problems in the ltogur Jliver valley by n soil ex port.) Ily Y. W. WATSON. ' Tho water factor in agriculture is the most important phyHicnl fuotor in that busiuoHS. Water, soil, nir nnd sunshine eon stituto the one gront grou?) of phys ical forces tbnt dctttuiino the. growth of plants. Irrigation is the artificial applica tion of water to lands for the piirpoHo of producing large and steady Jields of crops wherever tho rainfall is in sufficient to meet the full require uieuts of commercial plant growth. In an earnest nnd most friendly way I desire to take tho fanners of this valley into my confidence in a discussion of thu three simple, yet very important, propositions set out above. To put the matter plainl" nnd effectively before those who till the soil in this fertile region will re quire a scries of articles. I trust that those who are so vitally mtorcM ed in this important matter will fol low the discussion closely, ft will bu offered in tho siucerest spirit of help fulness at n time in this otsunty when proper foil management is a matter of gravest liioinciil to those cotitomvd in soil production. This soil treatment cannot bo given effectively without tho tiso of water nt the proper tiwo and, in tho proper quantity. tfo Mystery AUylt It Tho operation of the laws of na ture for tho increase of the bounty of tho soil for man nnd bonst is not a secret process. Tho element of mys tery has been eliminated from the combiuntio'ns affected by soils mixed with wmtcr, Thu puvoruniont, through its agricultural department, tenches tho fanners how to uulooli this great storehouse of vast Qroalth.
