Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dry Land Farming What may be termed the dry land area of the United States and Canada embraces approximately not fewer than five hundred million acres, all of which may be tilled, and nearly all of which is unusually rich in the elements of production. Because of the limited amount of rain that falls, this immense area can never be tilled successfully by the methods of farming ordinarily practised in humid areas. Within a comparatively recent period, however, it has been ascertained that nearly all of this area may be made to produce good crops, and with reasonable certainty, by what are known as dry land methods of tillage. The existence of this immense agricultural domain, as yet largely unoccupied, is now being widely proclaimed. Setters arc rushing into it, the greater portion of whom have previously lived in humid or sub-humid climates. They are much prone to begin the tillage of the land by methods that are adapted to humid conditions. It is a foregone conclusion that such methods will fail. Dry land farming can only succeed through methods that arc adapted to dry land conditions. This book has been written in the hope that it will furnish information that may be safely followed by the dry land farmer in the prosecution of his work. When writing it, special consideration was given to the crops that may be successfully grown in the various sections of the dry land area, and to the best methods of growing them. That the dry land farmer may find the book helpful to him in the prosecution of his work is the earnest desire of the author.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dry-Farming in America: Being a Report Presented to the Transvaal Government I arrived in New York City at 10 o'clock on the morning of the 19th and left the same afternoon at by the Congressional Limited for Washington. This is the smoothest running train in America and one of the most rapid. It is run in two sections which follow one another at an interval of five minutes. Each consists of four Pullman cars. Thus instead of one long train, two are run on the same track, ensuring great speed and smoothness. The broad guage, viz., 4 feet inches, has been adopted on this line. We arrived at Washington sharp on time, having traversed a: distance of 225 miles. At 10 o'clock next morning I called at the Embassy and was most cordially received by the British Ambassador. We at once stepped into his motor car and drove to the Department of State where the Committee for the Conservation of Natural Resources was in session. Here I met the Hon. James Wilson, United States Secretary for Agriculture; the Hon. Sydney Fisher, Minister of Agriculture for the Dominion of Canada and Mr. Gifford Pinchot, Chief of the Bureau of Forestry.

This book was released on 2018-08-11 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Organizing and Operating Dryland Farms in the Great Plains: Summary of Regional Research Project Gp-2 How best to organize and operate dryland farms in the Great Plains has been a persistent problem that has occupied the thoughts and energy of generations of farm ers. It has been studied specifically and directly by economists and other scientists. But the problem of organizing and operating farms in a variable climate has not been. Studied before in such a concerted fashion as under the GP - 2 regional r e s e a r ch project. The problem is larger and more complex than was realized 5 years ago. Yet much has been learned in gp-2 about yield and income variability in Great Plains farming. The purpose of this report is to summarize and evaluate what we have learned as a basis for outlining further research work and, hopefully, a fresh approach. The report is arranged in two parts. Part I briefly describes the regional project-its objectives, procedures, and work planned-followed by a summary of the main research results. Part II discusses each contributing project in turn -the problems studied, the objectives, the work planned, and what was accomplished. There is a list of contributing publications arranged as a bibliography, followed by the appendix, which contains abstracts of selected research publications stemming from the contributing projects.
