GETS 3 CROPS
OF ALFALFA
MAKES HAMBERG MAN $1,479
FROM FOURTEEN AND
ONE.HALF ACRES.

Kamberg, Sept. 1.-THE past week
Charles Theissen threshed his third
crop of alfalfa for the seed, and has
received an ACREAGE Of six bushels
to the acre which at the present price
will bring him about $65 an acre for
his crop.
Aside from this Mr.. Theissen will
cut enough hay, which together with
the straw after the threshing will give
him close to 500 an acre for that
piece Of land.
Mr.. Theissen Is the pioneer alfalfa
raiser in this county and from the
very start has made his efforts pay.
The piece he has this year contains
about fifteen acres. but small corner
is subject to wash, hence he estimated
he had not over fourteen and one-half
acres Of good land. He says he
cut about one and half tons OF hay
per acre at each cutting this year and
counting the straw worth one-half
cutting. and estimating the crop at $40
per ton. will make his hay crop worth
about $37 per acre, which added to the
price OF the seed crop wilAgive him
3102 per acre or a total OF $1,479 for
the fourteen and half acres.
