Four and Half Tons to Acre in Two
Cuttings on Dakota Land.
The Troy farm near Tappan has sue
ceeded in growing alfalfa. The seed
was sown in sandy soil and the fact
that the crop was cut in summer and
made good growth afterwards en-
courages farmers to believe that alfal-
ia will be a success in North Dakota.
Two other farmers cut alfalfa twice
last season and the yield was four and
one-half tons to the acre in tn two
cuttings.
Dairymen are experimenting in feed
for cows. 1t is stated that rye makes
the, best fodder. 1t is cut when almost
ripe, the same as hay, and stacked.
Much blowing this spring is expect.
ed to be done by steam power. Sue.
cess in blowing last season with steam

ty has encouraged several farmers to
put in steam pillow outfits. Among
them is E. G. Dewey of jamestown,
