Mail and Breeze, The Idea of ex-Governor Crawford | of Kansas, of blasting the subsoil or hardpan so let the rainfall through, which he sometime ago put in prac- tice on his farm in Cherokee county, has apparently stirred the {nterest of the agricultural world consider- ably. News of it has traveled far. The Du Pont Powder company has recently awarded cash prizes to two Kansas men for an exposition of Governor Crawford’s theory and methods and the farmers of neigh- boring states have been try!ng this new kind of farming with apparent success. While Governor Crawford's {dea was to create a sub-reservoir for holding the annual rainfall to supply crops with suffictent moisture throughout the growing season, al- go to release new stores of plant food, J. M. Jones an Allen county farmer has ueed the method with equal suc- coss {n draining a ‘wet spot” on his land. As told tn the Mail and Breeze of last week he blasted holes every 40 feesin aswampy field. The ex- ploston loosened the ground forsome distance and after the last wet spell the former wet place {n the field dried as fast as the rest of the land instead of remaining wetfor a week longer as {t had been doing. Farmers in Mr, Jones’s nelghbor- hood are now watching the experi- ment to see what If any effect the use of theexplosive willhave on thecrop, and sometime this fall there may be a nolse like a Fourth of July celebra- tion in that part of Allen county. Farmere Mall and Breeze has dur- {ng recent months received & number of letters from its readers who have tried Governor Crawford’s plan or are trying {t. Several letters are published thie week. It has ulso learned recently of the experience ot another one of {ts readers, {n dyna- miting hardpan !n Barber county. RAISING ALFALFA WITH DYNAMITE, A few years ago M.T. Willlams bought a quarter section of land near Medicine Lodge in Barber coun- ty and conceiving the same idea as Governor Crawford has, used dyna- mite in dealing with a hard subsoll The land was overgrown with sun flowers and cockleburs and wuule have been considered dear at $10) per acre. It was underlaid with & hard subsoil that was almost im pervious to water. Mr. Willlame conceived the idea of loosening this subsoil with dynamite. He bore: holes in the earth some 3 feet der} and about 40 fees apart and inene! hole placed a part of a stick of dyns- mite, Tke explosion of the dynamite loosened the hard subsoll.and mad: a reservoir for the rains which had formerly run off the land nearly &* fast as they fell, On this quarter there {s now 100 acres of as fine al- falfa perhaps as can be found tn the state. Mr. Williams has refused $15,000 for the quarter and gathers a net Income from his alfalfa of from $30 to $35 per acre every year. Governor Rebukes Harriman. Americus, Ga., April—The recent offer of E. H. Harriman to spend $10,000,000 on his Georgia rail- roads if the Legislature would repeal laws objectionable to him, was de- nounced by Governor Hoke Smith tn an address to the Board of Trade at this place. Governor Smith declared the offer was a bride, and that Harriman thought $10,000,000 was enough to pay for privilege of doing as he pleases in Georgia. “We desire,” said the Governor, “the investment of foreign capital in Georgia, but it must not take from the State excessive rates of interest. In that event. {¢ would impoverish rather than enrich the State. “The railroads once controlled er Powd Non A pure grape cream of tartar powder. Its fame is world-wide. No alum, no phosphatic acid.
