alfalfa. Below is a brief synopsis of
his methods:
II propose now in seeding alfalfa,
in rows for seed, to plant two rows
of contract peas eight inches apart
in the double rows and thirty-two
inches between the double rows. using
an ordinary shoe drill for planting the
peas, and attaching an alfalfa seeder
with small shoe to run between the
double rows of peas to seed the al
falfa.
"The peas would protect the alfalfa,
so that the field could be cultivated
with a corn cultivator or beet cul-
tivator and thus keep 1t clean. BY
this method of planting and cultiva-
tion we would get crop of peas which
under similar cultivation in the Gal
latin valley have yielded from sixty
