Alfalfa

Alfalfa, or lucern as it was origin
ally named, was first grown in south
ern California in Spanish colonial
days, having been transplanted
from the Mediterranean district, and
for many years it was unknown else.
where on the continent From
California its cultivation spread very
slowly into Utah and southern Idaho
the Mormons being amoung the earl
lest to recognize its adaptablity to
the semi-arid stretches of mountain
plateau and valley. The belief lin
gered, however, that it could not be
successfully grown outside of irri-
gated districts. Gradually it was
discovered that the taproot of the
alfalfa would find moisture, if any
existed within reasonable distance of
the surface, and that it would thrive
in the so-called semi-arid belt even
without irrigation. 1t has been
known, by actual measurement, to
send its taproots down to depth of
more than sixty feet. About ten
years ago it was put to its greatest
test. There had been long period
Of drought throughout Kansas and
Nebraska; the farmers had lost their
crops; they were threatened, because
of lack of feed and fodder with the
loss of their live stock. Then for
the first time alfalfa was planted on
anything like an extensive scale in
those states; since then it has be-
come one of the chief reliances of
the stock farmer throughout the tai
liable area of the trans Missouri.
The Portland Oregonian, COM
menting upon the spread of alfalfa
cultivation, tells of receiving num-
erous communications recounting
successes of similar nature in the
uplands of dry land districts of the
Pacific Northwest. In these instan-
ces alfalfa has invariably been grown
without artificial watering Where
ever intelligently tried, with nearly
normal precipitation, in Oregon
and Washington, it has proved to
be very profitable crop. In the
south its cultivation has spread very
rapidly. In that entire section
there are now 100000 acres seeded
$4,000 acres being east of the
Mississippi. At present the total
alfalfa area of the whole country is
put at 4,707,l lac acres, whereas
there are only 2,443,263 acres in
clover The alfalfa area lie being
extended annually, as it is being
found capable of adapting itself to
pretty nearly all conditions prevail
ing in the principal agricultural
regions of the nation. Dem. ADV, |

Give the Boy a Crop.


Plans for the year are maturing on
most of the farms of the Southwest.
Already it is pretty well decided
just what crops will be raised on the
farm and just what particular por-
tiops of the farm will be devoted to
them. In many instances plans have
been made to try certain crops never
tried before, to buy one or more
thoroughbreds, or to make certain
improvements in the equipment OF
the farm. But with all your plann-
ing, what have you mapped out for
the boy this year?
Nearly any farmer parent with a
boy would be glad for him to be a
farmer too, and the very best farm
er possible. But the chances are
against his staying on the farm UNI
less farm life is made attractive to
hlm and he has a wholesome respect
fo1 his work and keen delight in
it. He must be contented with his
life and love his work.
The spirit of freedom takes hold
Of the boy early and is accompanied
closely by the desire to do some
thing for himself. 1t is easy to in
terest him in nearly any kind of
work that promises personal, pro-
fitable money return. The farmer
boy knows farm work better than
any other and turns TO it naturally;
but if there is no personal profit III
it to him, if it does not pay him in
money that he may use as he sees
fit. it becomes irksome to him. lie
comes to loathe it and begins to be-
lieve that the town or city offers
him the opportunity to make money
that he desires.
Give the boy crop. Let him
have a designated corner of the
farm this year to plant as he pleases
and to cultivate according to his
own ideas. Let him know from the
beginning that the crop is his and
that the money it may bring is to be
his own. 1t cannot fail to make
him better satisfied to stay on the
farm. He will study his work and
read the farm paper as he never has
before. He will take new interest
in the operations of the whole farm
and will be a help TO you that you
never thought he could be-. And
you will see him grow into a farm
er who will make farming a business
and be an influence in his community.
Give the boy crop, and give it
to him this year.
