Five hundred tons of Colorado irri
gated alfalfa hay are wanted at Elgin.
Illinois, and Prof. w. II. DIN, in
structor in agronomy at the State Ag-
ricultural School. is trying to secure
it for the firm making the request. His
interest in the matter is that he wants
to open a new market for Colorado
product. Friday he bought five cars
at Holly and is looking for more.
The firm that wants the hay pre-
pares a food stuff. and is making a
huge success. 1t started two years ago
with 500-ton plant and is now
doubling the capacity. Il takes the al
falfa, kiln dries it and cuts it up Then
it is mixed with other foods to produce
various results. For diaries it is
mixed with sugar beet pulp: for poul-
try it Is mixed with certain grains and
! for stock it has certain mixtures.
This firm has been buying alfalfa in
Texas, Kansas and other states. but
Professor Olin induced it to sample
the Colorado irrigated growth and It
has found it to be better than anything
else. The big order will demonstrate
completely whether the Colorado pro.
, duct is the best and will settle the
question of the market. The irrigated
alfalfa is not leached like that grown
by other processes. AS the hay runs
nine to ten tons per car, this or
der means at least two trainloads and
perhaps morc.-Denver Republican.
