Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progress Report on Experiments in Supplemental Irrigation With Small Water Supplies at Cheyenne and Newcastle, Wyoming, 1905-1908 Of the several systems of soil culture adopted in dry farming probably summer tillage or fallowing is the most important. Summer tillage usually produces very good crops of annuals, such as wheat, oats, corn, and potatoes, in alternate years; but perennials, including trees, vines, small fruits, and alfalfa, which remain in the same ground year after year, require moisture continually not only to pro duce crops but to keep the plants from perishing. Usually these latter can not be grown successfully with summer fallowing, but require an artificial supply of water.
