ALFALFA IN THE YAKIMA VALLEY.

Alfalfa was known more than two
thousand years ago. The Greeks and
Ron ans greatly appreciated it's merits,
and since that time it has increased in
value, until now it is almost a necessi-
ty, and is raised in every part CT the
world where it is possible for it to
thrive. At the time Of the Spanish
conquest it was introduced into Next
co. thence into South America, Chile,
and in 1854 California and Washington
made its acquaintance.
The climate and soil in the Yakima
valley, Washington. are especially ad-
apted for the successful growing Of
this plant, closely allied to the clover
family as it is, but serving as a finer
fodder. One of the most attractive
features Of the Yakima, from April to
December, inclusive, is the beautiful,
dark. rich green of the alfalfa fields.
Five dollars an acre will usually cover
the cost of seeding. While it is sold at
$500 ton for feed. and $500 when
baled, and. as the atmosphere is so
dry and warm, barns are unnecessary
for storage.
If, after each cutting. the fields
are irrigated, a crop OF from two
to three tons per acre may be har-
vested every six weeks during the
summer. Usually it is so arranged
that siXty-acre field can keep
a haying outfit busy during the entire
season, us one part of the field will be
in blossom while another is being cut,
and still another part growing UP. The
cause for this rapid succession of crops
is that the roots grow to be several
inches in circumference. and extend
downward almost indefinitely until wa
ter is reached. Thus porous and
deep soil. such as is found i'll the Yaki-
ma, they will sometimes sink to
depth of twenty-five feet OF more. Some
almost fabulous tales are told of min
ers coming across old alfalfa roots
which have supposedly extended down
wards hundreds OBJECT. Nevertheless,
alfalfa, on account of it's rapid growth,
and the small cost of originally start
ing field and ever afterwards har-
vesting form the first seeding, has be-
come one of the most popular, il not
the most popular branch of farming in
the great and fertile Yakima Valley.
