Inc. irniintl. In 1SS2 I began to tell the
farmers that they could avoid the trouble
by storing and conserving the natural
rainfall In the soil by a slmplo method
of tillage and In that way conquer drouth.
The first announcement of ray discovery
was received with many aneera. but. un

experimenting. In 1S04. when the drouth
killed crops throughout the west. I raised

failure. In 1895 ,1 bsgan operating ex

the Rtatc agricultural colleges took up the
subject and the result today Is tho demon
strated fact that not only can good crops
be grown every year, regardless of drouth,
hut thnt fruit and ahada trees respond
with a remarkable growth and the fruit
trees with a liberal yield.
Turna Soli Bottom Upward
"What is the method? Well. In the first
place, there must be a complete rearrange
ment and pulverizing of the top six or seven
inches of soli, which must be turned aa
rearly bottom upward as possible each
5 car. Before plowing, the top four inches
should be thoroughly pulverised and made
t.m fine as possible by a free use of tho
i'iIsc harrow. This part of the work should
always bo done aa quickly as possible after
a crop Is removed, It Is so very Important
that no one can comprehend Its value with
ut a thorough trial. The more completely
ach partlclo Is aeparatcd, one from the
other, tho better. Then, this finely fitted
itirface soil must be turned don Into the
bottom of n furrow six or seven Inches deep.
Immediately after plowing tho lower four
Inches of the furrow slice must be packed as
firmly as possible with the subsurface
jiacker,
.bis.
There aro four reasons for doing
"Tho first object Is to completely oblit
erate all cavities. Where the furrow lies
loose the air circulates under the plants
and the ground dries out. It must not bo
permitted to do this. The next object Is to
cause moisture to gather from four to eight
Inches from the surface. Stubble, manure
nnd vegetnblo matter Is found In quantl
ties at that depth, and molsturo Is neces
sary to rot It and fit It for the food of
tho crops. Unleus this Is done the plants
are robbed of their most valuable food. Wo

"Healthy roots make good plants this
should be remembered. By packing the
root beds we hold more of the moisture.
The pores In the ground are made so smalt
that the water creeps through the loll rap
Idly by tho force called capillary attrac
tion. Iy Increased capillary attractlcn
moisture Is drawn more rapidly and from
a greater distance. This gives tho plants
food and drink during the hot, dry periods,
keeping them In a growing, healthy condi
tion, while plants otherwise situated would
wither and die. Your crops will never
suffer at such tlmeo If there Is plenty of
moisture at the roots, but a shortage of
water at that point may ruin tho whole
crop In a day.
"After the deep plowing and the sub
surface packing, tho next Important etep
Is to go over tho ground, either with a
steel drag or an acme harrow, to pulverlie
all surface lumps btfore they get too dry.
thus forming a mulch of loose, dry soil
This mulch must be kept loose and dry to
a depth of two or three Inches. The higher
the altitude and drier the atmosphere the
deeper It 1 necesiary to keep this mulch.
However, no attempt should be made to
cultivate deeper after the plant reaches
any size.
"Summarizing the whole method, four
conditions must exist to obtain best re
