TORCH LAKE
HAS FINE ALFALFA FIELD.
That Of J. Henneeke's Near Lake lin.
den Praised by Geismar.

w" ''sea pJ Selsnats
Prof. Leo NJ. Geismar, expert for
the Houghton county farm bureau, has
latterly made investigation Of alfalfa
culture IN the county. lie says;
There are hundreds of larger fields
Of alfalfa, but not one with "a more
perfect stand and a healthier growth
,hau that of j. Hennecke near Lake
Linden. Last years three cuttings
amounted TO over five tons per acre.
while this years first and second crops
yielded four and IA half tons and with
ordinary weather conditions the third
cutting Of next month will add enough
10 bring this year : crop close up to
six tons per acre. The success of the
hundred acre field of alfalfa at The
ROycruft Farm near SidnaW, during
the last -four years is due Ia the APP
plicatiop of lime ana incubation of
the seed. and as this has been done
With the thoroughness which is char
acteristic Of all other operations on
this farm, the yield OF the Roycruft
alfalfa is far above the average and
amounts 10 over i've tons per acre for
the first two cuttings although neither
lime was applied nor the seed inocu-
lated at the Hennecke farm, an inves-
tigation made by Leo NJ. Geismar, the
Houghton County Agriculturist. dis
closed the fact that about % years ago
potash was extracted from wood ashes
on this farm and several acres were
heavily covered at that time with the
leaChed ashes. Carbonate of lime is
contained in wood ashes To the extent
Of about 30 per cent, henC" quite
number Of tons OF lime were Indirect
and the alfalfa field proved that lime
alone Will insure success providing
enough is applied.
As Il producer of food value alfalfa
land ranhs higher than any other FOR
4 number of feeding tests have dem
onstrated that when bran is worth $2j
ton. alfalfa is worth about $23, hence
the food value from an acre which
produces five tons amounts 10 SHE or
500 an acre more than the value of
the average rrop of common hay in
Michigan which amounts To about So
AN acre.
There are fully 100000 acres in
Houghton county, says Mr.. Geismar,
which can be made To grow alfalfa as
successfully as on the Hcnnecke and
on the Roycroft farm, and those who
wish To raise it can have their lands
examined and soil tested free of
charge by applying to the Houghton
