Grimm alfalfa, probably originated
through natural hybridization of Med
icago falcata andt common alfalfa.
Grimm alfalfa is coming into very
wide use in the Northwestern States.
The new alfalfas have not yet been
tested on the open range as fully as
under cultivation. Although the re-
suits to date indicate their inability
to maintain themselves except under
very favorable conditions, the tests
ere nevertheless icing continued with
the hope Of ultimate success in inn
proving the range. . "
+ The experts of the Department do
not believe that this yellow-howered
alfalfa in its unsolicited state is crop
for the farmer to test, even though
seed were, NEailah1e.f Three main con-
siderations show that It is not likely
to prove valuable under cultivation:

Our railroads have in sight a

export demand which in turn means
a greater haul TO the seaboard. Be-
yCnd this VIC must not forget the

disc, representing purchases by the
agricultural districts or the products

Hardy Alfalfa imported by the Depart
nentsof Agriculture.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept Il, 1912.
- Considerable interest has been
arouse through the Importation by
the U. S. Department of Agriculture.
of some new, hardy varieties of alfalfa.
Little, however is generally known
concerning the characteristics of
these new alfalfas or the real pur-
poses of their introduction.
In the search for hardy forms OF
common alfalfa (Medicago satival
adapted to severe conditions of
drought and cold, the potential value
parent A yellow-fowered species
tMedicago falcata) found widely dis
tributed throughout Eurasia, forms OF
which thrive on the cold, dry steppes
of Russia and similar regions. seemed
to be the most promising. For this
reason persistent efforts were made
to import many valuable forms of this
species. .. :
Medicago falcata, enormously call
ed Siberian alfalfa and for which
there is no satisfactory common name,
is characterized in general by its
dropping habit, narrow leaves, and
fine stems: but it is so variable that
some plants may be readily mistaken
for common alfalfa when not in flower.
Very few of the forms possess true
tap roots like the common alfalfa, but
they have a branching root system
by which new plants are produced.
The flowers are yellow and the seed
pods falcate or sickle shaped, hence
it's botanical name.
The Department of Agriculture has
met with many difficulties in procur-
ing seed in quantity. as it is not han
died commercially and in no place is !
it produced in abundance. In spite
of the scarcity of seed very thorough
tests have been conducted both under
cultivation and on unbroken sod at !
the Departments testing stations and
in cooperative experiments at State
stations. The results Of these tests,
of the available forms of Medicago
falcata indicate rather definitely that
their chief value is for crossing with
common alfalfa to produce hardy and
drought.resistant hybrid strains. At
present the new alfalfa do, not appear
TO be sufficiently productive to. make
them generally profitable under cult
Walton. Many of the forms are I'M !
questionably very hardy and drought
resistant and have already shown
their value as stock for crossing with
varieties commonly known. ..,--A-.--,&s-.--

 Kelvin looked enigmatically into Rensselaer's eyes, abruptly laughed his own room.
 Stalwart soldiers surrounded the White House grounds in lines two deep. From the gates to the main entrance the way was lined upon both sides with bronzed. gray bearded non- descripts, who stood slouchily in their olive green khaki and who had noth~ ing of the bearing of soldiers in their attitude. They were strange lot, full 500 of them, and yet any one. disposed to laugh at the awkward line had only 10 look into the stern succession of inirthless eyes to know that here was dogged fighting blood. Already throughout the length and breadth of the land there had been sufficient ctashee to set citizen against soldier and sGdier against citizen, and re- cruits that but the day before yesterday had spat at uniform and yesterday had been driven by necessity into the employ of the army today found them selves arrayed against their former comrades and spat at the plain citi- zenry.
 Within the White House there were throngs of those who deemed that they had a right to inquire, to argue. to protest. to denounce. Day after
