A woman who likes to have her

dark green, deep red and brown, and
any of them are effective with the

With the above quantities there

turage to tbe roota of crops, tha aim
of the farmer should be to keep them
supplied with the proper amount of
moisture and to provide that mechan-
ical condition which best promotes tha
growth and yield of the crops.
That a crop draws up through Its
roots, and allows to evaporate, an Im-
mense amount of water has been
clearly shown In all part# of tha coun-
try.
Careful experiments la America
and In Europe have shown that one
to two barrels of water CfOO pounds to
500 pounds) are needed to produce a
pound of dry matter of many of
our common fields If thta amount
is not available Tn tbe soli tha crop
suffers, and If the supply la Irregular
there Is a lessened yield.
During wheat growing months when
the foliage presents tha greatest ex-
panse of surface and tha roota are
reaching several feet Into tha ” aoll

of water.
A conservative estimate would place
the average moisture percentage la
