Show MOISTURE IS GREAT FACTOR Twelve or Fifteen Inches at Very Least Is Necessary to Insure Crop Every Season. (By M. J. GREELEY, South Dakota.) Those In the dry regions who have been so fortunate as to have had moisture mois-ture enough to grow a pretty good crop every year for the past few, should not be too sanguine that they may not have to summer fallow, and like other dry-farmers, attempt a crop only every other year. It takes moisture, mois-ture, and at the very least above 12 or 15 Inches of it, to insure a crop every Beason, and when this amount does not fall at about the right time, a crop cannot be grown and mature. Only from experience with one's own soil and local moisture can we know Just what and how we must handle it. |
