states. farmers generally have not yet
succeeded In working out the problem
Of how to make this crop mt into the
present systems OF farming so that al
falfa viii not conflict with the corn
crop and crowd the labor requirements
In such way as to cause loss to both
crops.
According to experts OF the office OF
farm management, alfalfa already has
demonstrated Its adaptability to farm
ing conditions in Iowa, Illinois, and
the central west generally, and pro-
duces big yield at large returns. Corn
also produces great yields and offers
large return. With the two crops
overlapping and congesting labor many
farmers are at loss which to choose.
Mr.. Hennis will endeavor to work out
this problem, ultimately showing the
farmers how to manage their work SO
as to raise both corn and alfalfa when
deemed desirable. At the outset he
will make general survey with a view
to outlining parts of Iowa and Illinois
In which he desires other farm man
agement experts to make detailed sur
veys.
