acres of that best of all forage

all lir1s of l;v" rt""l,. u IS
proven far superior to the justly
priced red clover as a soil re-
s5orer and its annual hay yield
er acre is from two to three
times greater. Wherever alfalfa
grows the land is not only en-
riched, but the grower as well. It
makes poor Land good and good
Hand better. In 1890 the value
of the tame hay crop of Kan
sas was 100000, while that of
1907 was over $13.25n 400. The al
nual value of products of live
stock in that time ha1 been more
than doubled, and alfalfa has
made Kansas one of the foremost
states in dairying. Timothy and
clover have long been favorably
known as hay plants and occupy
= high and wen-earned place in
the list of such, but alfalfa is
their superior" In 1891 Ka1
