CuttirO Alfalfa,

Alfalfa should be carefully noticed
and promptly cut when in the proper
stage. For the best hay it should be
cut when about one-third is in bloom.
If harvest is deferred too long the
stems become woody. the leaves turn
yellow and the second crop is apt to
be injured. The alfalfa crop is very
valuable and much care should be
given to cutting and curing the hay.
| Those who have plenty of alfalfa are
especially fortunate this year.
