The Cultivation of Cotton

Cotton lb cultivated principally tor : and is preferably given with a spring
the following reasons: (l) To prevent
the growth of weuds; (2) to form a
dirt mulch which will prevent excess-
ive evaporation of moisture from the
held, (3) to regulate the soil air; (4)
to regulate the soil temperature; and
(5) to prevent soil erosion Without
proper cultivation, then, the cotton
crop must necessarily be much dim in
ished if anything like a crop Is ob
tallied. The dates for each cultivation
cannot be specifically given since lo-
cal conditions of rainfall, soils, sea
sons, etc, will govern the work to a
large extent. However, we may say
that the first cultivation should be
about one and one-half Inches deep.
tooth cultivator or with an implement
which has five or more teeth arranged
in a section, when the crop is just up.
Again, the second cultivation is gen-
erally given when the plants are some
four inches high. The implement to
be used is as variable as the dates
when the cultivation should be given,
some using a disc cultivator, other
preforing especially constructed
sweeps, etc. Finally, we must eulti-
vote to conserve moisture, and for this
work the machine which will make a
good dirt should be used.-—A. C. Har-

Now is the time to keep the fruit
ground well cultivated. The primary
object in cultivating orchard land in
Oklahoma is to save moisture, conse-
quently cultivation should not be de-
layed until the moisture has mrire or
less escaped. After each rain, as soon
as the ground can be handled, it should
be thoroughly cultivated. The delay of
a day is frequently of vital importance.
This is of particular necessity in the
case of orchards because the injury j
that will come from neglect will show j
for some years after.
Anyone who has travelled over an."
extent of western United States and
observed agricultral practice is struck
by the fact that the yearly rainfall has
but little to do with the suffering of
plants from drouth. In many parts of
the region lying between the Rocky
Mountains an-d the Pacific coast the
rainfall is less than in most parts of
Oklahoma and yet they never have
drouths. The difference lies in the
form and time of the rains. Their
rain comes in the winter in the form
of slow drizzles which last for days.
This rain all sinks into the ground,
and if care is taken to cultivate early
ui the spring before the moisture has
time to be drawn to the top of the
ground and be evaporated fruits can
he and are raised successfully where
the annual precipitation is less than
twenty inches. Under the conditions
there prevailing a dust cover made on,
the surface of the soil in late spring
will last till fall as there are no rains
at that season to form u crust.
While it is more difficult it does not
seem to be impossible to keep this
dust cover on Oklahoma orchards. It -
requires a little more of care perhaps
but the additional time and labor is
more than made up by our added near-
ness to mark t. and consequent saving
in transportation charges on fruit.
The great difficulty usually is that
the Oklahoma fruit grower has mora
land than he can look after. He gau-
ges the amount of land he can handle
by the acreage lie can keep clean of
weeds. The presence or absence of _
weeds is in truth a very minor factor
in determine the welfare of an Okla-
homa orchard. An orchard may bo
woefully 'neglected and never show a
weed and on tlie other hand on certain
seasons and at certain times in the
season the presence of weeds in an
orchard may be positively beneficial.
The prime object always should be to
keep dust mulch of three or four inch-
se thickness constantly present on the
surface of the soil As fast as a rain
forms a crust the team and harrow,
should break It up. In this way enough
of the moisture may pe saved so that
even on a dry seaBon the trees will
show little or no effects of tbe drout
