ALFALFA is A HARDY PLANT
Plenty of Manure--Good Seed Bed
Pure Seed--AlI Factors In Get
ting a Stand of Alfalfa.
By +. j. DICKSON, FordvilIe, N. ..

BY F. J. DICKSON, FordvilIe. N. D.
I do not think there Is any doubt
regarding the growing OF alfalfa with
JUS, providing there Is a chance for
the water to run off in a short time,
as standing water will kill It, I be-
8lieve that good plowing, along with
plenty of manure, and little extra
work on the ground before seeding, IL
about all that is essential to get a
start in alfalfa, that is, with good
seed.
There seems to be notion that al
falfa ought to be mostly in bloom be-
fore it is time to cut. Now, find
chat if you let the little shoots gel
much of start before cutting, it will
set the alfalfa back, while if cut as
soon as those shoots start, 1t seems
TO grow faster than ever. The patch !
4 ave is on the poorest land on the
arm, and | have been seeing how
tl1,ch grief it would stand; now at
sur years it Is better and stronger
anan ever.

justify present political methods in
this state by contrasting them with
conditions under what it terms the
Ktteridge machine. The contrast
is not very apparent. We remem

ors. Four of these five later join $
ed the progressive movement. /.
They took with them all of the
machine methods in which they
were well schooled, and called itan
anti machine movement. Three
of these men landed themselves IN
fat positions. One of them, Sen.
Crawford, has been dictator of the
progressive movement ever since
it started, and he is still seeking to
perpetuate himself in power and in
q fat office. SO far as political
management in the interest of the
people is concerned we can see no
improvement. If there is any ad.
vantage it must be sought in the
work accomplished and not in the
methods employed, and how do We
find this distinction Under the
Kitteridge regime railroad passeng-
er rates were reduced from DC to Sc.
The progressives have been prom
islng for eight years to reduce it
still further, but have not succeed
ed. Express rates are somewhat
cheaper than they were, but this is
chiefly due to competition with the
parcel post, a system introduced
under President Taft. Our state
has a larger debt than it had when
the progressives took control, and
our taxes were never SO high as
they are today. Our citizens have
prospered, but this is due to fay-
orable crop conditions, good prices
and individual industry, and these
are not traceable to any progress
sive political movement. TIe
state has progressed throughout
its entire history. 1t will continue
to progress SO long as natural con.
ditions and the industry and fru-
gality of our citizens continue, and
no little set of politicians can
claim the credit for that progress

seeded about 2la or 8 acres to
alfalfa in the spring of 1910. This
same piece was seeded again in 1911,
about 15 pounds of seed to the acre.
When about two inches high a heavy
wind storm came up one day and cut
the plants off and blew the loose dirt
away, over about one-half of the field,
and as result it got to be rather thin.
On the other half, the alfalfa was pro-
tected by the grove and buildings and
got to be almost too thick. ! cut all
Of it once in 1911, and let the clippings
lie an the ground. When the frost
came in the fall it had grown again to
be about 10 or IL inches.
In 1912, l cut this field on June 28th
(Which was too late), and on Aug. 18th
and again on Sept. 10th, but the last
cutting was once too many times as
the winter came early and the alfalfa
did not grow any more. 1t was left
unprotected and the greater part of
the plants died during the winter. This
last spring l plowed it rather late and
seeded to barley and cut a good crop
the other day.
l have another piece Of lard where
had alfalfa for five years that plow-
ed under in the spring of 1912, and
seeded to fax. The fax grew SO rank
that 1t lay fat on the ground and was
not worth anything. This year have
this piece planted to corn. which is
now eight feet high, and we have had
only about five inches of moisture or
rainfall from Jan. 1st to Aug. 1st.
