Show Purpose of Dry Farming Congress. It is a fact (that is fast being ao cepted) that any excess of water Is injurious to plant growth and that field crops in order to give their maximum yields and choicest qualities quali-ties should have neither a lack nor excess of water. This condition can best be obtained In many sections of the dry farming area, in under drained fields of the humid area and In the Irrigated sections where great care Is exercised in the application of Irrigating water. To teach the farmers of the world these principles and how to apply them to get the best results is the mission of the Dry Farming congress, which brings together to-gether delegates from all parts of the world once a year. |
