The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1914-04-01

The farmers are urged to grow al
falfa and red clover to renovate the
land. Now alfalfa and red clover will
add nitrogen and vegetable matter to
the land but it will at the same time
draw heavily on the supply of phos-
phoric acid and potash in the soil.
At eight cents a pound for each of
these fertiIizing elements, one ton Of
alfalfa would remove So. 50 worth of
mineral matter and one ton of red
clover would remove 81. 90 worth.
1t can readily be seen that to
raise these crops and sell them would
soon deplete our Western Wash
ington soils OF these mineral elements.
And it is only when these crops
are turned under or fed to stock
and the manure returned to the
land that they can be considered as
renovating crops.
Alfalfa is not suited to the valley
lands where the soil is heavy and the
drainage poor and we doubt if it will
ever be grown extensively on the
lighter soils unless it should prove
that alfalfa will make good silage and
on this question authorities seem to
differ. But for hill land that is
gravelly and other land where the
drainage is excessive it is likely to
prove of great value.
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1914-04-01

We find that the alfalfa is ready to
cut before the weather becom es set
tied and would recommend clipping
with the mower about the middle OF
May. The yield has been consider
ably more than red clover would yield
on the same land and the alfalfa will
last for five or six years while the red
clover dies out after the second year.
The stems of red clover will often
rot Oft during a wet spell but this
is not the case with alfalfa.
Some of the farmers on the nil
land east of Kent also have succeed
ed In starting alfalfa.
The fact that alfalfa will grow on
the hill land leads me to believe that
this will be the best way to utilize
gravelly ridges and other land where
the drainage is excessive. The alfalfa
can be used for hog pasture, for green
feed for chickens or for hay. And
will save fertility that would other
wise be carried away in the drainage
waters.
We wish to correct some wrong I'M :
pressions that one is apt to get from
reading some of the articles that APP
pear in the agricultural press and
some times from the talks of our agrl-
cultural experts.

An Experience in Growing Alfalfa in
Western Washington
By A. S. Alvord.

by "A. =. AlVOrO.
At the request of the editor we will
attempt to give the readers of The
Ranch the benefit of our three years
experience in growing alfalfa in the
White River Valley.
Our first attempt was made on land
that is light sandy loan. The land
was plowed eight or nine inches deep
in February and on the blowing we
scattered 1000 pounds of ground lime
stone to the acre. We used disk
harrow to mix this thoroughly with
the surface soil.
During the first week of April we
scattered soil from an Eastern Wash
ington alfalfa field using 400 pounds
to the acre. This was done on a
cloudy day and the ground was har-
rowed Immediately with a smoothing
harrow with the teeth set nearly
straight. 1t is important that this
work be done during cloudy weather
for the reason that sunlight will kill
the bacteria without Wnlcn IL is I'M
posi- BILE to grow alfalfa.
We understand that the CONNER
cial cultures of bacteria that are
sold under the name of Farmogerm,
Nitrogerm, etc., will answer the
purpose fully as we'll as soil from an
old alfalfa field.
AS soon as possible after applying
the innoculated soil we sowed north
ern grown alfalfa seed OF the common
variety using Is pounds to the acre.
This was covered by using smooth
ing harrow with the teeth set slant
ing and this followed with a roller.
The season turned out to be dry
one and the weeds seemed to fare bet
ter than the alfalfa. We clipped the
weeds the first week in July using
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1914-04-01


would take the lead. But the weather
continued to be dry and neither the
alfalfa nor the weeds made much OF a
showing. The outlook was such that
we gave up every hope of starting
alfalfa that season. However, gen.
erous shower in August brought life
to the plants that had been withered
and apparently dead and before fall
the field was covered with growth
of alfalfa II to Is inches high. We
left this on the field to add strength
growth. We had harvested no crop
but we were convinced that alfalfa
would grow in Western Washington.
The next season we seeded a few more
acres to alfalfa using Is pounds of
seed instead of Is pounds as before.
This season we had sufficient rainfall
and secured a thick covering of
vigorous plants and the clippings
contained sufficient alfalfa to be
worth saving.
This last season we seeded six acres
more using 20 pounds of seed to the
acre land we would not recommend
using less than that amount) and
again secured a fine stand of plants
and about one ton of hay to the acre.
In our experience and in our read
ing we have made some discoveries
and arrived at some conclusions that
may be Of interest and possibly Of
value to those who contemplate MAX
ing trial with alfalfa.
1t is generally held that nurse crop
should not be used with alfalfa and
that the plants make a better root
growth when they are clipped once
or twice during the growing season.
We had hoped and expected that
alfalfa could be used as soiling crop
for COWS by allowing the plants to
wilt before feeding but while we have
not tried this ourselves we are con-
vinced by the experience of farmers
in the Yakima Valley and at the ex-
pertinent station at Pullman that this
can not be done because Of the losses
from bloat.
Last spring we read in Hoard IS
Dairyman the experience of a man
in an eastern state who started alfalfa
on Is acres of land that had been
farmed by renters until it had but
little rental value. Five acres of this
field we're infested with Canadian
thistles and the writer stated that the
alfalfa not only brought in more in
come than had ever before been real
lied from the land but at the end of
the second year the Canadian thistles
had entirely disappeared.
We had small patch of thistles in
one of our alfalfa fields and we went
to see what the alfalfa had done for
us. We found that while the thistIes
we're growing thick and rank in the
road outside our field the plants in
the alfalfa were very sickly and about
one stalk where there had been ten
the year before. The growth of the
second crop diminished the vigor and
number of plants still more and we
expect that this season will see the
end of the thlstles.
Thistles when cut before blossoming
make hay that is greatly reliShed by
