Looking over this stretch we could see the alfalfa curling and falling back as 1t was being cut with great S-foot moving machines, the harvesting having com menced this year on April 10 unusually early. The crop this season is very heavy and will average from one and a half to two tons from the first cutting. We have seen a few small fields of alfalfa grown under irrigation that would pro- duce as much per acre as Colonel Smiths.
 but he has not only shown what few acres well cared for could be made to
 produce. but without the aid of irriga-
 tion he has brought hundreds of acres up
 to the high yields of the well cared for acres Colonel Smith did not accomplish
 this all at once. He first found by actual experiment what his soil needed in order
 for it to produce alfalfa and when this
 Knowledge was obtained he followed up his work, adding new fields each year.
 until he can now stand on Mount Nebo and look down over 1900 acres of perfect crops, for here I found the most perfect stand and the most uniform growth that I have seen in all my travels looking
 I do in all sections into the condition of this crop. We do not find any naked places or uneven growth in the alfalfa fields here. And here is where comes in
 the greatest feature of MT. Smiths great , work To take 1900 acres of land and se-
 
 | form growth of alfalfa is a work but lit | tie short of a miracle.
 Wonderful View Presented. | Standing upon Mount Nebo the green
 fields of alfalfa furnish only a part of | the great picture that spreads out to our
 view. The farm is cut up by division fences into plots of 100 acres each. Look
 ing away into the distance we see in one
 of these fields 300 head of fine hogs; in another field a great flock of Angora | goats; in another field hundreds of young
 cattle, and in another young horses and
 mules. while over the farm near and
 around the barns are chickens and tur- keys In great numbers. for poultry is
 just as fond of alfalfa as stock. The l past winter was the coldest in the history of Texas and the soil froze deeper than ! ever before. yet Colonel Smith showed me l one field of 100 acres and remarked: Just | ten days from the day the thaw-out be- | gan had HOO head of stock feeding on 1 that one field of alfalfa"
 Colonel Smith keeps no poor stock on
 his farm. He buys up poor cows and horses cheap from cotton farmers. but | his alfalfa soon makes them shed off | the old dead hair and lice and transforms | a skeleton .rto a fat aniroal.
