The Care Of Alfalfa MeadoWS.
1t is sometimes possible and advis-
able to thicksn up thin stand Of
newly seeded alfalfa by reseeding.
To do this, disk early in the spring,
seeding when The weather is warm
enough to escape heavy frosts, COW
ering with a spiked toothed harrow.
1t is not advisable or practicable to
attempt to thicken up stand'of old
alfalfa, since the younger plants can
not successfully compete with one
well established plants. If the old
field has become weedy or full of
grass, it had best be broken and rot
ated with corn, potatoes or some
other crop before being reseed. Gen
orally alfalfa reaches its maximum
period of production in four or five
years and fields this old should be
rotated
1t pays to cultivate alfalfa just as
it pays to cultivate any other crop
and after the first seasons growth,
cultivation should be given every
spring. The first cultivation might
better be done with a spike toothed
harrow, but as the suface becomes
harder and the plants better estab-
lished, disk should be run over the
ground loosen the surface deeper
and split the crowns.
The presence Of fresh air in the
soil is necessary in order to insure
the best development of alfalfa.
The roots must breathe and they re-
quire oxygen the same as those of
other plants, and alfalfa bacteria in
the tubercles of the roots must have
| free nitrogen in order to perform
their Function of formnitrates which
are food to the plant as well as fer
tility to the soil.
Cultivation encourages all this by
loosening the surface soil, permit.

weeds and grass and last but not

'Neevils to the destructive spring
1 reeze and thaw
In this state the soil is usually con
eidered strong enough to supper
nanvcrops of alfalfa without rotation
" fertilization, but experience on on
station farm has shown a decided
advantage from the addition of fiv
or six tons of barnyard manure pc
acre. This manure is best sprae,
thinly and early in the spring, thel
it should be disked in to mix it witt
the soil and to get it out of the wa.
of the hay in time of harvest.
When the manure is to be apple,
to non-irrigated land, it is bette
spread evenly and turned unde
when seeding a new field, but if tn
crop is already in the ground, i
should be well rotted or at least no
coarse and trashy.
Where it is necessary to depen'
upon the winter rains to leach it
substance into the soil, spread in tn
fall or winter then disk it in tn
early spring. At any rate don't ex
pect alfalfa land to bring a goo,
crop year after year without cultiva
ton, rotation or manuring.

DECLARE CODES
ARE NOT UNJUST
Builders Not in Sympathy with
Complaints that Regulations
Injure Concrete Business.

Concrete builders are not in sympathy
with complaints that newly adopted build
ing codes do not give concrete a fair
chance in competition with other build
ing materials, Just because, as an In
stance, concrete block has been made
that didn't met the requirements Of a
code when It was adopted. This has re-
suited in Inconvenience for the particular
persons who had a supply OF block on
hand which they couldn't dispose of ex-
cept outside the city limits
In some cases It has been found the
code isn't too strict, but methods were
too lax. Concrete car stand restrictions.
The manufacturers OF concrete products
and those using concrete in other forms
can adjust themselves to the new condi-
lions with profit to themselves. When
conditions under which concrete is to be
used are standardized the public will
accept the material much more readily.
Standardization is Important.
Furthermore, Standardization brought
about through building code regulation
puts every manufacturer and builder on
an equal basis with each other. He
needn't fear that the other fellow" is
going to skimp and thereby beat him IN
competition.
