CONSERVATION
NOTES
By LEW HANKS
Winter is a good time for plan
ning ahead. I have been on sev
eral farms lately where farmers
have been planning crops for next
year, field layouts, pasture seed
ing and also drainage and irriga
tion.
Field drainage in Alaska is
really a puzzler. There are a lot
of questions to be answered if a
man is planning on draining a
swampy area. Is there a feasible
outlet for drainage? What is the
soil like? Is it muskeg? Are
there only a few inches of muck
soil above the gravel? Is it full
of rocks as big as your head, all
! about six inches deep? If so, bet
| ter forget drainage and continue
i to raise block spruce on that field.
What might drainage do to the
j water table? There are quite a
I l
few wells that have gone dry
this fall. Promiscuous drainage
might aggravate this situation by
removing sources of recharge in
to the underground water table.
In places in the States a lot of
good money is being spent to re
place swamps. It was found, too
late in many places, that some
swamps were a lot more valuable
for water storage than for farm
land. It’s something to think
about. A pretty careful study
should be made before starting to
drain an acre. One of the best
places to store water is in the top
soil. Don’t forget about building
those brush rows across fields
where the wind sweeps it bare;
also, don’t forget about hooking
the tractor to a couple of small
logs and dragging them across
the field a few times to rough up,
pack and hold the snow. That is,
if we get any. That will help
hold the snow, I hope. Anyway,
: it’s worth trying.
