FERTILITY NOT LOST
IN FEEDING ALFALFA
Crop Draws Most Heavily on
Lime and Potash, Resembling
Glover in This Respect.

An alfalfa field will yield on an aV-
erage 5000 pounds of cured nay per
acre In one season. This cured nay
will contain about $3.50 pounds of dry
matter. The number of pounds OF
each of the four most important ASH
constituents removed from an acre by
a seasons crop of alfalfa hay, as COM
pared with clover hay, is as follows:
Potash-alfalfa, 2O6 pounds; clover
Sc; phosphates-alfalfa, So pounos'
clover, %; lime-alfalfa, SO pounds;
clover, 76; magnesia-alfalfa, ~
pounds; clover, II. y Lis
Alfalfa draws most, heavily on inc
lime and potash, resembling clover IN
this respect, but because of its heav::
Ter yield per season, greater quantity
of these ash constituents is removed; :.
If the alfalfa is fed on the farm anc
the manure we'll preserved. and re-.
turned to the land, but little fertility
is lest. Fit happens that the, soils are
poor in these constituents, fertilizers
.of lime in the form of land plaster and lo
potash in the form of wood ashes can ca
he proftably applied. -. .,.3 >. al.
With the aid of nitrogen gathering
bacteria, alfalfa, like clover, can use
the free nitrogen Of the air, still II
must not be inferred that a fair sup
ply of nitrogen in the soil is unneces'
sary or that the application of nitro
genous fertilizers Is always Wasteful.
Professor Dyer of England has shown
by careful experiments that the use
of moderate quantities OF nitrate OF
soda has been decidedly remunera-
tive"
He found that in five years, an an,
nual dressing of one hundredweight OF
nitrate of soda per acre gave an In
crease Of nearly three tons of green al
falfa fodder per acre per year, while
an annual dressing of two hundred
weight per acre gave an increase OF
four and half tons Of fodder per acre
per year. From this he calculated that
there was annual profit due-te nitrate
of a little more than four dollars per
acre in the first case and over SIX dol
mrs per acre in the second case.

HEIGHT OF BOOSTS
FOR THE ASfATICS
Brahmas and Cochins Being
Quite Heavy Fowls Should
Not Be Compelled to Fly.

Roosts for Brahmas or Cochins
should not be more than a foot above
ground. Being very heavy birds, they
cannot easily fly, and 1t is better that
they should not be compelled to.
Some breeders do not allow them to
roost at all, but instead heavily bed
the floor of the pen and allow the
fowls to squat wherever, they feel in
clined.
But in allowing them TO-. roost on
the floor, care must be taken that
there are no drafts, which often is the
case, i, the doors, do; not fiti:tightly.

Best Grass for Dry Areas.

Bronze grass Is probably the best of
the cultivated grasses to grow in dry
areas. When established 1t will fur
nish grazing early In the season, not
so early as winter rye, but earlier than
the native grasses. 1t will also furnish
grazing in the autumn proportionate
to the amount Of the precipitation.
During the entire season, therefore, 1t
should furnish much more grazing than
the native grasses.
