BE CAREFUL SELECTING
YOUR ALFALFA SEED.

The remarkable success of al
talm growing by planters ada
cent 10 Hickman this season is an
incentive for increasing the acre
age for 1913. Lest the new con
yerts to alfalfa growing aud some
of the older ones, be not familiar
with the Importance of seed Sc
lection, We call attention To d
warning TO avoid the use of com
mrrclal TurkcStan coming from
the t. : Department of Agri.
culture which says
Specialists of the Department
have been investigating the com.
parative merits of different kinds
of alfalfa seeds and have reached
the conclusion that there is moth.
ing To recommend the Turkesian
variety for general use in this
country.
At the present time approx.
mately one fifth of the alfalfa
seed used IN the United States is
imported. OF this quantity, prac.
tlcally all--95 per cent. in the
last twelve months-co comes from
Russian TurkeStan. In the Euro.
pean market, commercial TurkeS.
tan Is the cheapest seed availa.
bic; IN this country It's wholesale
price is less than that of domcs-
Tie seed.
Fortuutely, growers who wish
10 avoid TINS variety can readily
identify It by the presence of
Russian knapweed seeds These
seeds have not been found any
where except ia commercial
rurkcstan seed. and here they are
practically always present Rus
sian knapweed spreads both by
seed and underground rootstocks.
Phc seeds are slightly larger than
those of alfalfa. Their chalky
white color makes them especially
conspicuous. and their form
wedge shaped-distin.
cuisines them from other species.
Alfalfa should be- examined in
bulk The examination of small
samples is not sufficient to sho~
whether the alfalfa comes frnm
Turkestan or not
