County's farm adviser. s. NJ. Jordan.
and County superintendent OF Schools
r. II. Luckoett. havo been doing ef-
fectivc cooperation In f%urthcring az
ri%cultural instruction In the rural
schools OF this county. Recently they
distributed blanks to i02 rural school
teachers TO procure complete accurate
Information about silos and alfalfa
culture.
Sixty-nine teachers have reported
In fifty-four OF the sixty-nino dis
tricts are 22G silos, seventy OF which
were erected In 1919; sixty-three in
1912. and tho others strung along
back TO 1904. Mr.. Jordan estimates
that there are 33i sllos In the county
and that with a heavy corn crop In
1914 the number OF silos Will be
doubled.
Alfalfa growing Is reported In
forty-one OF the ~slxty-nine school dis
tricts with fifty-six fields totaling
334. Only sixteen OF these fields
were sown prior TO 1912. or the for
~ fields sown In 1919 and 1913 only
four failures were reported, showing
90 per cent were successful.
According to Mr.. Jordan's investi-
cations the aus OF alfalfa failures
In this county were sowing Southern
grown seed, late blowing for seed
bed, acid soil, seeding at wrong time,
failure to cultivate. lack OF inocula-
ton, and the insect known as the
leaf hopper" His conclusions are
that Pettis county is well adopted to
successful alfalfa growing and he says
more alfalfa will make more feed
TO grow more cattle TO produce more
manure to make the land more fer
tile to grow more corn to iii more
silos to feed cattle-and you
