SUPPLY NOT ALL AVAILABLE. By P. B. Parker. Department Of Agronomy, ruiverslly of Nebraska. Loam and silt loam soils such as are common iu the corn belt region contain 12 or 14 inches of water lu the Upper lour feet of soil when crops ire growing most rapidly. One cubic toot of silt or clay loam soil contain Ing the proper amount or moisture for good glowing and tilling conditions contains about two aud one-bail gal Ions of wad r. The water contnlned in a soil la not all available for crop growth, in Other woids crops will wilt when there is considerable water yet in the soil. In the month of August, 1909. when the coin was wilted badly and beginning to dry prematurely, tbe Upper four toot of soil contained LB or lii per cent of water, which Is equivalent to 7 or 8 inches of rain lall. The unavailable water in u cubic loot of loam soil Is equal to about one gallon. Tin atOOUIlt of available water con tained In a soil, therefore, is the dif ference between the total water cou tent aud the unavailable water which would amount to about 5 or 6 inches in tbe CMC of the loam and silt loam si ils mentioned above This Is equi valent to about one and one-half gal lons per cubic foot. Crop Requirements for Soil Moisture. Glowing crops use a great deal of water. According to good authority from L"u to uOO pounds of water are required lor ever pound of dry mat ter produced. I'oi instance, If the wheat crop produced two tons of dry Wheat and straw per acre it transpires or evaporates (100 tons of water per acre during the growing season on the basis of 100 pounds of water for every pound of dry matter produced. This amount of water is equivalent to 5 or t inches of rainfall. The available moisture content of loam and silt loam soli in the upper four foot under good growing condl lions and the wheat crop require ments for wnter are therefore very similar in tUUOUIltS, This does not mean, however, thai the wheat crop can reach maturity and produce maximum yields without more wnter than thai contained in the soli whuu the crop was (-own, even if It con tained enough water for best growing conditions at I bat time As stated before, tho crop grows boat when the soil contains the op t'niiim content of moisture and the growCb. is gradually less as the wnter i i Dteatt is reduced below this point, lu order that the crop may make Its best growth at all stages of its grow ing per.oi, it is necessary that the soil in which Its roots art growing be supplied with the optimum molstura content at all times. There are several factors which tend to maintain this ttatO of equi librium between tile growing plants and the availan'p moisture In the root zene. Some authorities put great ttiess upon the repl uilshlng supply of moisture which moves up papilla 1 1 ly Irom below the ;-oot sone, thus en abling the plant roots to have a constant supply of witr continually at their disposal, 'or as the soli moisture la reduced n the vicinity o. the growing roots the water from be-!-w or otherwise mrroiinding the roots moves toward the dryer soil. rVom this viewpoint the depth to bottom water Is quite r.n Important consideration. Moisture Content of Soils. i lie continual iiiik m-'iit of grow ing plant roots no OOUht is a signi ficant factor in cons'-l ripg the water Upply for crop purpos-s. for as the rout. ami root hairs row. their ab sorbing portions arc contlniiall v reaching out Into new regions where the moisture supply has not as yet iieen greatly reduced and by the time fhe wheat crop reaches lull maturity the upper four feet of soil are pretty well occupied with wheat roots. When the wheat crop is nearing its full growth, but yet growln? most active Iv, its large area or roots permeating (he upper four feet of silt loam soils greatly reduce the moisture content in tb root rone. The crop require ments are comparatively large at this stage The moisture content !n the upper four feet of soil about the ruddle of June is ordinarily very near lbs limit of the available supply. The Jarniera of Nebraska and surrounding Hues are fortunate in that more rain tails aa a usual thing during the mouths of lune and tfuly than am uiher two months or the year. The crop yields have been greatly reduced many times by a few days of dry weather, although the growing condi lions may have been almost Ideal dur ing the rest of the growing period. Tliis critical period may occur at al most any stage. The ta. mt i plays a very Important part in maintaining the proper bal ance between the crop r-qiiir mtit s for water and the available iat lf bv proper UgnOffCttV nt f the land This requires rlose attention and proper and timely application of the prim P?es of roll management.

HYDE THREATENS ATTORNEY Prisoner Attempts to Attack Senator Reed in Court. While Senator Reed was making an argument for the state in the hearing at Kansas City of Dr. Hyde, charged with the murder of Colonel Thomas H.
