The Growing of Alfalfa Without
irrigation.
byron Hunter J

tBytOn hunter
Although alfalfa gives its largest
returns under irrigation, often yield
ing six and seven tons per acre in
one season, it has been quite
thoroughly demonstrated that it is
the largest yielding and best paying
hay plant that can be grown on dry
upland in Eastern Washington and
Eastern Oregon. On such land it
does not reach its highest develop
ment until about the third year,
as it requires some time for the
root system to develop sufficiently
to take up the required moisture
for the plant Therefore, little
must be expected the first year and
only light returns the second.
Preparation of the Soil.-The
ground selected should be as free
as possible from weeds, as these are
the great enemy of the young
alfalfa plant. Land plowed deep
in the Spring and thoroughly cul-
tivated during the Summer makes
an excellent seed bed for alfalfa.
With land prepared in this way
and early Fall rains, early Fall
seeding would probably give very
satisfactory results. At this time,
however, we have very little data
regarding Fall seeding. If the land
selected for the alfalfa field grew a
crop the previous season, pillow it
deep In the Fall or early Winter
as soon as it is wet enough. Let
it lie in this rough state until in
good working condition in the early
Spring, when it should be thor
oughly pulverized by harrow
ing, disking, or rolling, according
to circumstances. As soon as dan.
ger of killing frosts is over cultivate
again to kill any weeds that NAV
have terminated and to break up
any crust that may have formed on
the surface Of the grouud and then
sow the seed.
Inoculation.-If it is though
that the alfalfa bacteria is not
already in the soil, material for in
oculating the seed may be obtained
from DR.. Geo. T. Moore, Bureau Of
Plant Industry, Washington, d. c.,
by writing to him and stating the
amount of seed TO be sown and an.
proXimately the date upon which
YOU expect to do the seeding. 1t
Us necessary to give DR.. Moore a
little time in order that the inocu-
latng material may reach you in
the due season. incubation may
also be made by hauling surface
soil from an old alfalfa field and
scattering from 800 to 500 pounds
per acre on the surface of the new
alfalfa field just before seeding.
Sowing the Seed.-If sown broad
cast, u to 10 pounds Of seed should
be used per acre, Cover lightly 10y

of seed will be sufficient. know

ONE ACCIDENT
Hospital Had 81 Cases Yesterday, Only
One Serious.

In spite Of the great crowds at the
fair yesterday there was but one serious
accident. Thomas Caufeld, aged II,
TIA Laurel avenue, st. Paul, was
knocked down and trampled by team
as he was trying to run across the track.
One horse stepped on the lads breast
just above the heart, and it was feared
that serious results might attend the in
jury. He was taken to the emergency
hospital, where it was found that sew
eral ribs were broken.
Thirty-four cases were reported to the
hospital, most of them Of little import
ance. Many women who became ia
tigued or excited by the hurry and noise
of the crowds. were cared for and after
rest were able to go, home.
The police department had busy
day, making eighteen arrests on various
charges. Five were for bringing liquor
on the grounds, three for drunkenness,
and three for trying to sneak into the
grounds.
One arrest was made for ticket specu-

was something enormous. Everybody
