What Is a Fair Rats/ We do not know what constitutes a basis for rate making and have never heard of anyone who did claim to know much about it, but if the pros- perity of the farm is a factor to be considered and the railroad commis- sion concludes that an increase in :ates is necessary, , we would- prefer that It conic to us through articles of consumption on their journey from the factory to the farm. We would, for example, prefer that the rate on flogs remain as at present and the rate on meat bear the increase, for any farmer can then avoid the burden by raising his own meat, and a farm- er who will not try to raise his own meat ought to be penalized. We think the rate on coal and brick can much better bear an Increase Jima the rate on cotton and flour:' We would prefer that the rate on plows remain the same, and machinery, pianos and such articles as the poor er farmer cannot hope to possess bear the burden of increase. The Increase in rates should be so arranged that the farmer who lives at home will bear no part of the bur- den, but let the farmer who boarda iii other states and countries and who feeds his stock in foreign lands, pity the price of his folly. Several Points Necessary In Order to Insure Success -Prepare Soil In Thorough Manner. For growing peanuts under dry farming conditions, a few points are essential in order to insure success First, the land should be fitted in a thorough manner, plowed about the same depth as for corn, harrowed Im- mediately and firmed down to con- serve moisture. If possible it should be gone over shortly after plowing with a disk harrow set straight, to subpack firmly the lower strata of soil. The point of next importance Is good seed and if possible this seed should be secured near where the crop Is to be grown rather than from some distant section. Many of the experiments In the use of peanuts on the semiarid lands have failed because seed was procured from some region where there was an abun- dant rainfall. Locally grown seed Is preferable even though the Quality Is not so good as that which may be ob- i tained from some other section. ‘AmiimsaismnicamswanrasawaszazardienvumnmmemnoszwYsFew.wr.vazo;.• - •awAorazas .--- FAilflivitf 'MR ' or 'mkt.

Still more striking differences were made at some of the substations, and the one great gospel we heard from Indian Head and from there alt over western Canada, was dry farm- ing by summer fallowing one-third to one-half the land under cultivation. As a rule the man who tried to get around this failed to get much of a crop. To be sure there were excep- tions to this certain seasons, and in certain slightly more moist sections, but they were exceptions, one year with another, in these parts even. This same way of handling soils In aur own semiarid parts is being prac- ticed and advocated by many, al- though our scientists tell us that this unnaturally exposing the dark surface of the soil to the heat of summer suns and winds is ruin to it in the long run, and that this unnatural way of accu- mulating moisture, getting rid of weeds and \resting\ the soil, should not be encouraged where there is a possible way around it. This we firmly believe. Right here many come In and ad- vocate corn -either for grain or Tod - tier -rape, when there is moisture enough to start it, etc., etc., but a whole lot of people, among them some of our experiment station men, say corn, for instance, takes an enormous amount of moisture from the land - as much as almost any grain crop - and ask how in common sense we ean conserve two years' moisture for one year's crop by any such subter- fuge. Some of those in charge of the work in South Dakota tell us that while the moisture goes out of the soil a little slower with the corn -as it takes a longer time to grow and ma Sure -that when it is matured we will find the moisture has been taken. This looks reasonable, sure enough; but our experience and iibservation go to show it isn't so. That the forest condition, shaded roil, cool air circa. lilting at night and other times, in some way retain or actually accumu- late moisture, and that the rightly - handled cornfield will actually show as much, sometimes slightly more moisture In the soil, than bare sum- mer fallow right alongside of it Just as there is more moisture in deep forests under the leaves, no matter how much moisture the heavy foliage has taken to grow, than in the bare treeless field near by. DRY FARM POTATO GROWING Conditions and Localities Where It is Cheaper to Purchase Tubers at Store Thar) Raise Them. tEly C. I.. FITCH, Colorado Experiment Station Experience has proved that the dry lender should plant both early and late varieties of potatoes, to catch the season at one end or the other. Early (Milos have been most used for early planting, but above the ditch are apt to be rusty fleshed, from soil heat in a dry summer. Irish Cobblers are bet- ter In this respect, arid yield more On a good year. Pearls are largely plant- ed for a late variety. It Is a good plan on dry land to mark the field both ways and to plant the potatoes at the cross mark, then cultivate them both ways, so as to reduce hand work it is risky to plant on ground in a dry year with a dried. out subsoil, but with a good spring and a subaoll in good condition, wide spacing makes potatoes fairly sure. where leaf roll has not appeared. There are many excellent dry -land regions for potato growing In the table lands of the Northwest. New settlers in the plains should he cautious, as potatoes have been a complete failure In most places in that region. Dry lands. notably the Arkansas di- vide, have suffered severely from pota- to leaf roll, and new settlers should make careful inquiry regarding their neighbors' experiences before giving much land or work to potatoes. Nearly every newcomer seems to have to learn for himself that we have conditions and localities a -here it Is cheaper to purchnse potatoes at the store than to try to raise them. PLENTY OF FINE TOMATOES Best results Obtained by Use of Hard. Wood Ashes as Fertilizer -Keep Off Black Files. According to a writer In the Dar- den Magazine plenty of fine tomatoes can be had without any thouble if hardwood ashes are used as a fer• ttlizer, and are also sifted on the leaves to keep off the little black flies. Do not set the plants in the open g round until all danger of frost is past. Dig large holes a foot deep, place a pint of ashes In each hole, and cover them with at least Iwn inches of dirt, on which set the plants. The best time to do this is at twilight or on a cloudy day. Protect each newly set plant with a paper bag (the bottom having been cut out of sufficient site to slip round the plant easily. Three or four stakes driven into the ground hold these In place.
