than if the alfalfa plants were well
matured at the beginning of winter.
No doubt the ground may become dry
enough so that the alfalfa is injured by
drought in addition t any injury that
the alfalfa may receive because o. the
cold weather. But it is probable that
the conditions must be extreme even for
North Dakota. before the alfalfa will
be injured by reason of the dry falls.
Now this fact is encouraging because
the dry falls in North Dakota, and
especially in the western rertion, are
more common than the wet falls.
HARDNESS OF ALFALFA.-To the
more acute observers of the requirements
of alfalfa in North Dakota: it has be-
come increasingly more evident that the
real trouble lay in the non-hardy charac-
ter of the alfalfa that have been used.
Tests with alfalfas in regard to hardi-
ness were scarcely undertaken in North
Dakota previous to the time that the
work was projected at Dickinson in
cooperation with The United States
Department of Agriculture.
During the season of 1909, there was
brought to practical completion at this
station perhaps the largest experiment
ever undertaken for the trying out of
the hardness of the various strains of
alfalfa. Alfalfas were gathered from
all over the world and a total of 68
strains were represented in the expert
merit.
Without going into any of the details
regarding the experiment. it will be
sufficient to slate that out of all the
~alfalfas under trial, there was only one
that stood pre-eminent in hardness,
combined with a high quality of plant.
As a matter of fact, the average
winter killing of all tho alfalfas
amounted TO over 80 per cent for the
winter of 10000. The one alfalfa
that came really triumphant through the
very cold periods of that winter was
the Grimm alfalfa, though a few others
did airly we'll.

and at that time the Grimm
alfalfa showed a winter killing of but

bare of snow. Thus we had a combi.
nation of circumstances working to thu
injury of alfalfa in this winter rarely
equalled even in North Dakota.
1t would seem then that we have al
hand an alfalfa practically suited to oul
needs az far as hardness is concerned.
Before this experiment was undertaken,
we knew pretty we'll that Grimm alfalfs
was hardy, but it's hardness had moi
been accurately measured. 1t is no
necessary to rehearse the story of Grimm
alfalfa, which at the present day il
pretty we'll known. Everyone has
heard of Wendeline Grimm, a German
immigrant, who came to this country
in 1857. bringing with him a 2O-pounc
sack of alfalfa seed that developed
later into the really remarkable alfalfe
, that bears his name.
