Alfalfa in Kentucky.

Scattered about in many sections
of Kentucky one finds farmers who
have alfalfa growing upon their
farms. From a productive stand
point many of these fields of alfalfa
are very poor. They represent sim
ply the possibilities Of alfalfa, in the
particular section, when the condi-
tons necessary for the production of
the crop are fully met. Here and
there in the State. however, are
found men who, with a through
knowledge Of the requirements of al
falfs, are emirently successful in
growing the crop.
A farmer may consider himself
successful with alfalfa when he is
able to harvest thtss or four cuttings
a year, agRregating yield Of from
three to five tons per acre, and~hen
the field has been kept comparative
ly free from weeds and has been pro-
