After this satisfaction is made you
have left of the state adoption
course equally as complete and thor
ough as is covered by the Suwannee
county list. Deducting from the en-
tire cost of the state adoption list,
$134O the cost Of the books omitted,
s416. and you have left 1924, the en-
tire cost of a complete course of books
equally as good as the Suwannee
county list, which cost S11.04. So, in
stead Of the state adoption being
higher, it is $3.50 cheaper than the
county list.
Let US take another county. This
time we will swing over to the east
coast, and take the case of ST. Johns
county. The county list Of that county
covers only twenty books. There are
twenty-seven on the state adoption
list. and there is the subject of draw
ing. In order to equalize the lists We
can take from the state list the follow
ing:

Difference between Complete

After this deduction you have left
as thorough and complete course as
is covered by the st. Johns county list
The cost of the complete state list is
$3.50. Deduct from this the amount
OF the omissions above. and you have
left $1,000. which would be the cost OF
the state books adopted equal to the
county list, which costs $11.64, thus
showing that the state adoptions
means a saving to the people of SIG:

after which it will increase and
spread. We have sent such alfalfa
soil in four-pound packages bv mail
to farmers, who have changed their
success with alfalfa by sowing upon
and narrowing it into their fields.
ALFALFA MIXTURES
On many farms of the west sowing
some grass with alfalfa is giving en-
cellent results. Four grasses are us
ed for this purpose and we recommend
II fifth. The four commonly used are
timothy, bronze grass, orchard grass
or meadow feslue. In places, 70
doubt, the slender wheat grass will
give as good or better results than
any of the foregoing. The method is
to SOW the ordinary amount Of alfalfa
seed and then put on from ten to
twenty pounds Of the grass selected,
and harrow it in. These grasses
which grow tall enough will head
Just above the alfalfa. and it is claim.
Ell fields produce as large crops of
both alfalfa and the grass used as
would be grown if each were planted
alone. Such alfalfa and grass mix.
lures make excellent stock feed, es-
recially for fattening, rs the grasses
widen the ration. Mixtures Of this
arenot recommended for dry farming.
Grass sod in alfalfa shortens the life
OF the alfalfa plants and prevents
thorough harrow cultivation.
IRRIGATION OF ALFALFA HAY
lrrigate the ground before planting.
DO not irrigate the seed up if it is
possible to avoid it. DO not irrigate
alfalfa when too young, unless you
know it is burning. Many practice
irrigating old fields early in the
spring before the alfalfa starts, but
this is probably not the best practice.
Fall or winter irrigation is better.
Alfalfa may be winter killed if ir-
rigated so late that the water freezes
around the crowns Of the plants. If
the water is absorbed by the soil SO
that it does not stand and freeze, no
damage will be done. or if the ground
Is thoroughly frozen and the water
merely forms ice over the surface, it
does not harm the plants. Usually
the first crop can he produced without
irrigation; but alfalfa should he ir-
rigated for each of the second, third
ana fourth crops. Some farmers
practice irrigating just before cutting
the hay. Irrgating at that time
! ieaVes the ground damp, which inter.
