The farmers of Missouri, at least
those farmers who keep in touch with
the modern mthods of farming, now
are importing billions of germs into
the state each year to aid in the grow
ing of alfalfa. Alfalfa and other
legumes, such as the various clovers
will not produce the best of crops uD
less the soil is filled with bacteria
known to agriculturists as alfalfa
germs. These germs are produced ii
the laboratories of the United States
department of Agriculture at Washing
ton and are sent free to all farmers
ordering them. The best and safest
method of inoculating the soil will
these germs is that advocated by tina
department. Bacteria are taken from
the root nodules Of healthy plants, fec
and raised in incubators until the.
have formed large masses called cul
lures. The bacteria Of the culture.
are developed in a warm water solu
ton which is sprinkled over the seeC
or mixed with small amounts of sol
and drilled into the field to bt
inoculated. Often the farmers of Mis-
souri, use lime before incubation tt
sweeten the soil. A soil that is sour
