PENETRATING POWER
OF ALFALFA ROOTS

To those not acquainted with al
falfs, the facts will seem incredible.
The penetrating power of the root
is equaled only by that of the des-
ert sagebrush of the western
plains, says Hon. F. D. Coburn.
Under favorable conditions of soil
and climate, the roots will have
penetrated to depth of five feet in
six months. Many instances are on
record of roots having been dug up
or otherwise exposed, some of which
showed length and penetration of
So feet, while even the greater
depth of so and GO feet, and more,
are recorded Many times the fail
ure to secure stand of alfalfa is
attributed to hard sub-surface soil.
This is not the fault if there be
enough moisture in the soil to sup
port the young plant until it once
establishes the root system.
AT the Kanass Agricultural col
lege a trench was dug through an
alfalfa field for laying water pipe
1t was late in the fall, following a
favorable season, and the alfalfa had
yielded three crops. In the greater
portion of this trench it was neceS-
sary after removing a spades depth
from the top to use a pick to loosen
the soil, which was so hard that
the men ordinarily did not at one
blow drive the pick into it more
than two inches; yet notwithstand-
ing the hardness of this clay soil
alfalfa roots had penetrated the
depth of the ditch, five and one-half
feet in the deepest place, where the
roots appeared little smaller in
diameter than they were foot
below the surface.
When the alfalfa is once estab-
lishcd, if there is sufficient mois-
ture to maintain the plant, it sends
its roots in quest of permanent
moisture, and is only prevented
from reaching it by stone itself
The roots have a strong and well
developed power of passing around
obstacles such as stones and boul-
ders, and no crevice is so small as
to escape them in their downward
journeyings.
Charles w. Irish, chief of irriga.
ton inquiry, United States depart
ment of agriculture, in an article or
s'Alfalfa and Where to Grow 1t,
makes the following interesting OBJ
servation: ''The writer had an op
portunity to observe the great deptf
TO which alfalfa roots will penetrats
Mountain Home maverick. [volume] (Mountain Home, Idaho) 1906-1911, 1906-08-09

in search of moisture while making
a survey of a mining tunnel in Ne
vada few years since. The tunnel
miners as rotten porphyry.' 1t was
much shattered and scanned, and
through the crevices in the rock in
the roof of the tunnel water came
out drop by drop; through the same
crevcies came also roots of plants.
These were found to be alfalfa
roots, which came down from an
old field of the plant over the tun-
mel through a depth of soil and
rock of 100 feet
This unusual penetrating power
is of the greatest agricultural i'm
portance. The alfalfa thereby not
only obtains it's food from far below
the root range of ordinary crops,
thus leaving the surface store for
shallower feeders, but when these
deep-boring roots die and decay they
leave not only their own fertilizing
properties but innumerable openings
for air and moisture and humus
from the, surface to penetrate.
This, at first thought, might not
appear of much importance, but in
a wel1-set alfalfa field five years
old, five feet below the surface,
there would be from 10 to 80 roots
to each square foot, averaging an
eighth of an inch in diameter,
reaching directly from the surface.
With this fact known, the value of
alfalfa as both subsoiler and fer
tilizer is more easily appreciated.

"BungIing Western job

1t was announced on the New
York stock exchange July %, that
a forged certificate for fifty shares
of Union Pacific common stock,
which is now quoted at S147.25 per
share, had been discovered. A New
York dispatch says: 1T is not
known whether or not there are
any more of the bogus certificates
in circulation According to Sec
rotary Ely, of the exchange, the
certificate is dated September IA,
1905, and bears the number 1858.
1t is in the name of Marvin ]. Han

Alexander Mi1lar, secretary of the
Union Pacific Railroad company,
said: 81 do not believe it is New

days ago a western bank informed
