Up to the end "of `the fiscal year of 1903 nearly four and a half" million dollarshad been spent on this ditch. The revenue earned on it in the fiscal year -of.1904 w.as I52.- 611. while the wages of"the staff freight \moved over the waterway totals_ about , forty thousand-tons a` year, as compared with some five million tons through` the 800.

No matter how I much the land -has l.3eein`~ manured and how carefully _sets have been ` planted`. it the soil 1s_~allo_wIed_to' ine- come hard. the weeds. peI`!Ill'ttJd_li'.0l grow apace. and moisture lost. which could be saved. the crop will be very much reduced. A_ fewvdays alter the sets have been, covered by, the plough and before the plants -have -seen above ground. butnovt until the weed seeds have germinated, the` soil should we ' harrowed with the smoothing harrow -to `level it `and _to kill the myriads ot_weeds which us- ually germinate aloout that season oi the year. If possible. the soil should be harrowed twice before the tatoes are tar enough up to be injured. If two harrowings are giv- en there should be little trouble from `weeds afterwards. a.'n.d'harr-ow- ing is a much more economicalway ct getting rid of them than by ihand hoeing._ As soon as the V otatoes are far. envou h up so that `e rows can T be readiy distinguished. the culti- A vator should be put in and the soil loosened between the roots .to as great a depth as possible the ..-first time and -as near the sets as it is safe to go without disturbing them. so as `to loosen the, soil for the tut.)- ers. All `future cultivations ought to me `quite shallow to prevent im- i jury "to the roots and ttubers. The soil should be `cultivated every -week or `ten days. de minding on the wea- ther, the olbjec being to keep -the surface soil loose until the tops meet well `between the rows. 11 thesoil be- comes baked evaporation ,oi'tmoistu're will be very rapid. From -five to six cultivatiolns. or even more. `are none too many and- it will be found th-ast the~~crop usually increases in pro`po_r,- _ tion tosthe number of cuttivations. A A` very careful series of experiments to determine the value of cultivation was` carried on`.foy* Prof; I. P... Ro- berts. late director of the-._0_omell `Experiment .Station._ In.one experi- ment the yield from six cultivavtions was 344.8 bushels. and from `three cultivations 303.3 bushels or .a dif- ieience ~oi~41.5- bushels. In another case `the yield -fr`-om.` a plot cultivazt-g _ red six times was 310.5 bushels, -and from a plot cultivated three times. 269.6 bushels. or a difference of 40,9 `bushels. . - -gr`-no-av sw- Conservation of moisture is very important in growing potatoes and: thorough cultivation is one of the Faostv-ways, to retain moisture. The potatoe vines should not suffer from drought. as they often do in the middle of summer, if the soil were proferly prepared to begin with and we! cultivated during the early pant, of-the season. The vines must` be kept growing thriftily from the time they appear` a"a-ove- ground. until au- tumn if a maximum crop is to be obtained. If growth is checked in the midd!e`.'of summer the crop suf- ters and the tubers when they start \ .'to increase in"size when the mini comes are very likely to become mis- shapen. `A~ good cultivator is very essential in growing pot-atoes.
