per acre, but are no guide to what may
be expected with the natural rain1aii'
They are misleading when so taken.
2. Where the rainfall is less than
Is inches and there is no runoH OF
sub-irrigation, one fair to light crop
annually is all that should be expected
if every precaution in the culture Oh
the crop is observed This is better
than one fair wheat crop every four
to six years.
8. With less than twelve inches
rainfall, farmers are advised to ex-
pertinent with small tracts until they
learn what they can do. Considerable
risk is attached to establishing the
crop with less than twelve inches an
nual rainfall.
What Are the Requisites for Success!
1. Seed of the highest quality.
| (Seed will be examined without charge
by the Department of Botany, State
College, Pullman.)
2. A first class summer fallow. Of
fering a good supply or readily avail
able plant food, stored moisture, free
dom from weeds. A poor summer fall
low is not safe. The young plants
need every advantage.
8. No nurse crop. (Where the soil
drifts nurse crop would be necessary,
but the success of alfalfa under such
conditions is very doubtful)
4. Seeding with drill, as describ-
ed in latest bulletin issued by the state
college.
S. Very thin seeding, preferably in
rows 80 to AZ inches apart for cultiva-
ton. -
6. Thorough cultivation every year.
7. Care not to pasture close at any
time.
We would strongly urge farmers
| throughout the semi-arid belt to give
alfalfa careful trial. AS forage and
soil-improving crop for such conditions
| it is of the highest rank.
| Popular bulletins Nos. AZ and 40 dis
cuss the details of land farming and
| Extension Bulletin No. discusses the
details of growing alfalfa without ir-
| rigation. These may be secured from
the Experiment Station, Pullman,
Wash, upon request.
