The problems of cultivation and since the cir cular sent out by John Cownle of the State Board of Control regarding soil cultivation to prevent loss of molsture they are mak- ing practical experiments. Mr. Cownie, who is a practical farmer of many rs in lowa, 4 a great admirer of the teachings of Prof. Campbell, who is operating in western Nebraska and Kansas and other states and has been making a study of th question for years. Mr. Cownle says tha the same system of cultivation advocated for the reglons where drouths are more common than in Towa ls good for lowa farmers. He has followed it for years and declares that lowa farmers must learn the principles of conservation of molsture In the soil to guard against these periods of others.

A careful student of the unusua{ con- dittons prevailing this year {s John R. Sage, director of the Iowa weather and crop bureau and aseistant local observer. Mr. Sage Is a practical man in everything an? he takes a plain and sensible view of the situation. “'The extraordinary heat of this year can be accounted for without resort to mysteries,” he says. ‘Nature's ways are simple and easily understood. There have been a good many theorles advanced to account for this great heat. Some of them are nonsensical. For Instance, there is the suggestion of sun spots.

If these planets were tal- low candles hung up in the sky a mile high they would have about as much influence on our weather, “There Is nothing mysterious about the intense heat of the sun this year. We have similar conditions at some place in our country every year. It is due entirely to lack of clouds. Every great mid-continent reglon s subject to these seasons. There Is enough heat in the sun’s rays every year to produce all this heat, but ordinarily it is held back by the clouds and the rain. We are protected by the mofsture in the at- mosphere.
