ALFALFA in WEST VIRGINIA.

|
With the Increased cost CT land
and farming expenses comes the
question, How are we going to
make the soil produce enough to
pay good Interest on the money in

One of the ways Of making two
blades of grass grow where only
one grew before. is to grow alfalfa.
A good stand of alfalfa can be mown
three times ear and "hoge ed"
down fourth time in the fall. The
hay ranks with wheat bran as a
feed and as a soil improver this plant

1t did not stand so well at first it
has come to the front and taken
possession of the land.
The alfalfa thai was sown last
year has had an uphill time Of it;
with only enough moisture to make
it come up, and no rainfall until af-
ter the ground had frozen. and then

But recent rains have started it of

having the most favorable weather
conditions. | feel confident that
alfalfa can be grown in every coun-
ty in West Virginia. L am growing
it on four different kinds of soil.
and have see it grown ON as many
more. Alfalfa roots Will go down
into any kind of sub.soil that is not
impervious to water. For instance.
1t has been raining here for ten
days, and the roots have been go
ing INTO the soil that ordinarily
would bee too hard for them to
penetrate. Once there, nature
knows no way to get them out.
Weeds are the worst enemy to al
falfa. For this reason L always SOW
about August 18th. 1t is impor-
tant to plow the ground early and
cultivate continuously until sowing

pounds to the acre, so when the
alfalfa comes up it will completely
cover the ground, and then there
won't be any room for weeds. |

soil for its own use.
Alfalfa will follow wheat, pro-
vloed the ground is plowed soon
after harvest, and gotten into
good seed bed by the middle of
August. Good hay can be cut the
following June, and the land does
rot MISS crop while the alfalfa is
getting started. In all / have 20
acres of alfalfa. The two and three
year old growths seem to get better
every year. This L attribute to the
gradual improvement of the soil by
the alfalfa itself, and to the increas
