Dry farming proves its worth across regions
The Dry Farming Bulletin cites Claud Hollingsworth of Colfax Washington praising the Campbell system for conserving moisture and yielding large fall grain under dry conditions. Reports from Texas Panhandle and western Canada support its applicability, with testimonies from Rev O W Dean and Judge Gough noting yields double to triple typical. Also cited are Saskatchewan records showing 19 years of drought with Wheat and Oats yields and low rainfall supporting scientific moisture conservation. The article urges Northwest Texas farmers to attend a Dry Farming Congress planned for October 10 and highlights fruit growing under dry farming in Colorado Washington and Idaho.
