Down in Nemaha county, soil conservation district representa tives got out to make checks on the depth of moisture penetra tion, at several points over tne district. A test made on Marshall silt loam soil with an eight percent slope in heavy wheat stubble and first year sweet clover ground showed moist soil to a depth of 43 inches. Between 43 inches and 78 inches the soil was dry. From 78 inches down sub-soil moisture was again found. Last 'fall's dry weather depleted sub-soil mois ture to a depth of six and one half feet. Moisture from winter rains and snow replenished sub soil moisture to a depth of three feet seven inches. J In a second test on terraced winter wheat with almost no ground cover, sub-soil moisture was found to a depth of eight feet. A test on Pawnee silty clay loam soil with a six percent slope showed sub-soil moisture to a depth of eight feet. This land was planted to winter wheat and had no ground cover. A similar test on sodbound, over-grazed brome grass showed sub-soil moisture as down to a depth of four feet. Apparently, says County Agent Robert Wilson of Nemaha coun ty, frost delayed moisture pene tration on fields with heavy cover. The situation seemed ripe for a good flood when the snow banks started to melt, but the expected heavy runoff and flood ing failed to materialize' since apparently most of went into the soil. the wauT To increase minerals in dairy rations, add two pounds of a mixture of equal parts of iodiz ed salt and steamed bone meal to each 100 pounds of feed.
