joe" has been pursuing an
ideal. He is catching up with
1t rapidly: 1t is not far ahead now. It
is the placing Of alfalfa into every
field OF the United States where 1t
will grow and benefit the soil. How
far Mr.. Wing has advanced on the road
toward h realization of his ideal may
be inferred from the facts that only a
few weeks 6 one Of the leading
American farm papers referred to al
falfa as "the king Of forage plants"
Another declared 1T begins to look as
II the United States is to become one
vast alfalfa field" While still another
said. alfalfa is the only crop that can
be taken off the land year after year
and still have the land increasing in
fertility without applying fertilizer"
To the city dweller with ever a rudi-
mentary idea of what real farming and
the exhaustion Of fertility mean this
may sound a good deal like a paradox,
out the man h has devoted even a
very nor time to the subject of sci
entihc agriculture knows that alfalfa
enriches the. soil through Its ability to
take nitrogen from the air and store IL
In h ground.
Authorities agree in calling alfalfa,
which Is known also as lucerne the
most important of American forage
crops. AS such its cultivation is a
matter OF Importance to all eaters of
meat and to all users of dairy products.
Besides. efforts have been made re-.
Gently to introduce alfalfa into the hu.
man dietary.
II the efforts succeed we shall have
Joseph E. Wing largely to thank for II.
For he has been preaching alfal.
IN. teaching alfalfa. writing and lectur.
ing about the plant and Introducing II
into regions where 1t was unknown.
Without reverence he may be called
"the apostle of alfalfa" He found the
plant In Utah and recognized It an a /
good thing. both for himself and for his
country. At frst. OF course. he had to
overcome the conservatism OF the aRri.
culturist But alfalfa speaks for itself
wherever II Ia introduced and does not
now need his recommendation.

duce alfalfa into America. He onlvI
