START A PATCH OF ALFALFA.

John R. Fain, Professor of Agronomy,
Georgia State College of Agriculture
Seed alfalfa in the fall in time to
set it established before the cold
weather. The essentials in getting a
good stand are good drainage, thor
ough preparation Of the seed bed, lib
eral use of lime and incubation.
Alfalfa seeded under these condi-
tions at the College produced IL
tons per acre in five cuttings the
first year. At the time of this writ
ing 4 10 cuttings have been obtained
the second year with one more cut
ting about due, The first cutting Of
the second season was larger than
the first cutting of the first season,
but adverse weather held back yields
of succeeding cuttings.
It was found necessary to cultivate
the alfalfa patch after the second
cutting this season to keep down
crab grass. This can be done with
either a disc or spike-toothed harrow
or with tool made especially for
the purpose.

Growing Wheat IN Georgia

ronomy, Georgia State College Of
Agriculture.
Wheat is best adapted to the heav-
Ter or tight soils, such as the clays Of
Georgia, White cats do best on loam
Phosphorus is the principal ele-
ment to emphasize in fertilizing. 1t
Is not advisable to use much nitro
gen at seeding time, but if the soils
do not produce enough straw, apply
nitrate Of soda, broadcast in February
Or March.
In preparing the seed bed, pillow
early. Where. cowpeas are turned I'M
der the land Should be rolled. Where
no early preparation has been made
good results will be obtained by disc
ing the ground from which corn has
been cut and shocked Wheat can
also be sown between rows of cotton
either in the open Through or with
"a one horse drill. Cotton land to be
seeded with the drill should be cul-
tivated besore seeding with planet

Bearded varieties should be used
for low grounds and either smooth
or bearded varieties for uplands.
