soD-BouND ALFALFA FIELDS
Methods Employed In ReseneratIno
vary Great Deal-Dlsklns 10
Most Popular System.
tBy H. F. PArTERsoN.)

tBy H. F. PATTERsoN.)
The methods used In regenerating
an old field Of alfalfa vary a great
deal. Perhaps the method that is
used to the largest extent throughout
all OF the northwest states is the meth
od OF disking the land early in the
spring. Whether or not It Is a good
plan to disk alfalfa land IL a question
upon which there has been much DIFF
ference OF opinion. However. II this
work Is done properly there seems to
be a good reason for so handling our
field,
In localities where there is but q
small amount Of rainfall and where
tne soil becomes hard and impervious
to water 1t is very good practice to
iollow. Then again In regions where
there Is sufficient rainfall and where
the winter season Is open, the thawing
and freezing will tend to loosen up the
ground and in that way have the same
enect az disking In the arid regions.
1t 10 well.known fact that the disk.
Ing OF the stems will cause them to be-
come very much thicker. However. in
disking alfalfa there Is some danger
In that the crowns very often become
infected with fungus diseases which
viii oftentimes destroy the entire
plant We must keep this in mind and
must govern our actions accordingly.
That 10, we must use extreme care In
order that the crowns Of the plants
will not be injured to any great ex-
tent.
The disking Of course will cut the
crowns and there is always the danger
that the fungus diseases will set in.
However, II we are careful and do not
allow the diseases In our fields on the
start and are careful that our disk Is
very clean, this danger will be almost
entirely eliminated. The disk should
be 80 set that It will cut the crowns
OF the plants rather than gouge them
out. Some farmers have had success
BY getting the disk nearly straight and
running the disk each way. This will
divide the crown into four equal por-
tons and each part will send up new
alfalfa plant and in that way the stand
will be materially thickened.
Then again 1t is we'll to disk the
alfalfa field when the field has become
infested with blue grass and dande-
lions. which will choke out a large
amount Of the alfalfa.
Farmers have also had success by
putting on from five to SIX pounds Of
alfalfa seed. especially upon fields
that have become infested with dande.
lions. It is sometimes good plan to
add a small amount OF clover seed to
the alfalfa. The clover terminates
very rapidly and will get a good start
and will thus keep down the weeds.
The clover will die out In a year or
two and we will still have good
stand Of alfalfa. We would suggest
the following Of this plan upon large
number Of our alfalfa fields that have
grown alfalfa for three or four years
BY getting In and disking 1t Is pos.
sible to thicken up the stand to such
an extent that we can grow our alfalfa
upon the same field for three or four
years longer and still obtain large and
profitable crops The best time to
disk the alfalfa is in the early spring
because the young plants can thus OBJ.

The best fertilizer for the garden is
rotted stable manure.
The corn grader Is a necessity on
every farm where the corn planter is
used.
Diversified gardening Is the safest
course for growers supplying local
markets.
Fresh seed you must have to be
good. and good seed is necessary to
get satisfactory crop.
Onion seed for ripe onions should
be sown as early as the ground can
be worked In good order.
Do not plant short rows, but let
them run the whole length Of the
garden II need be-why not?

"some time ago we began using DR.,

We like them very much. Their action
Is excellent and we are grateful Tor
having been made acquainted with

The form and flavor of any medi-
cine is very important, no matter

Guilty is overcome. The shape OF
