Alfalfa is equal to bran as to feed
ing value. When first came to Ste
vens county / thought of sowing 90
acres of alfalfa. but every man dis
couraged the proposition, saying the
conditions were not the kind to grow
alfalfa successfully. / found out
where / could get some alfalfa, but in
stead of sowing 20 acres put in 2.
on about the 18th of July, which came
up as fine as could be.
Now we have in this community
from 40 to so fields of alfalfa. Some
are as old as eight years. and as far
as can learn there has been only
one man in the county who has failed in
growing alfalfa because the weeds
smothered it. / see no reason why
we cannot all grow alfalfa in Stevens
county
OF course it is an expensive pro.
position to seed and we cannot afford
to go at it and make a failure. The
West Central Minnesota Development
Association has made it possible for
US to secure first class quality of seed
from northern fields. having been
grown in these fields Is to 20 years.
This is hardy seed and of high per-
centage.
The next thing is what kind of soil
to use. There are two kinds of soil
upon which to grow alfalfa. Put it
on will drained and fortified soil. If
water stands on it any length of
time either in winter or summer it
will kill the stand. Sow your alfalfa
after you have gotten the weeds out.
The only man who failed in this
county to grow alfalfa failed because
of weeds.
1t is not necessary to pillow the land
any deeper for alfalfa than for any
other crop. but the soil should be we'll
pulverised. In my estimation, no
nurse crop is necessary, as l have
seen many instances where nurse
crops have been used with no sue
cess. Neither is it necessary to in
oculate the soil, because of the sweet
clover growing in this vicinity which
to my mind has sufficiently inoculat-
ed the soil.
Alfalfa will pay you two and three
times as much as any other crop. One
man who. .only had one-half an acre in
alfalfa realized for the past year re-
turns from this one half acre that
could have amounted to $72 if he
had had a full acre in alfalfa.
Outside of sweet clover alfalfa is
the best leguminous crop as a soil
builder for it retains moisture. 1t is
my advire to rotate your alfalfa field
about once in forty years.
Cut your alfalfa just as it is be-
ginning to bloom and when it does no
begin to bloom cut it just as you
notice the small buds come out of the
stock at the bottom, which is an in.
dicating that the plant is mature and
that the next crop is ready to come
up. The next crop comes up so quick
ly after cutting that it is advisable
to remove the hay very soon after be-
ing cut. Do not stack the hay, hoM-
ever, while there is dew on it or
while it is too green but it must be
off the ground before the next crop
comes up too high.
AS last statement let me say
make a sure proposition Of it in the
