The usual custom is to harvest alfalfa
just before it is in full bloom. With
early cutting in many sections three
crops per season may be secured. Believ-
ing that alfalfa clover cut slightly after
bloom might be as nutritious as that
cut i'll bloom, and that if as much nutri-
tlon could be secured in two crops as in
three the cost Of harvesting the hay
would be lessened, Director Sanborn of
the Utah station divided the Utah sta
tion alfalfa into six plats and three lots,
each test being in duplicate. The first
lot was moved before the alfalfa came
into bloom, the second lot was cut when
IN early bloom, and the third lot when
completely out of bloom. The early cut
alfalfa gave greater gain in flesh when
fed to steers than the late cut.
AS large crop was secured from two
cuttings as from three, whether the first
cutting was at an early period or at a
medium stage of it's growth. AS early
cut hay gave a slightly better gain, the
balance Of the experiment. favors early
cutting, though it is assumed, but not
known, that the character of the growth
from early cut alfalfa is not as substan-
tlal as that from late cut, as the flesh Of
cattle fed on the latter probably contains
more fat and less water. The usual prac-
tice OF early cutting was, however, con
firmed.
