WISCONSIN EDUCATOR TELLS
OF ALFALFA'S HELP TO LAND

Austin. Tex. July 20-The headliner
of the first session OF the farmers in
stitute meeting in the house of repre-
sentatives was the speech of Prof P.
A Moore. OF Wisconsin, on alfalfa
Prof. Moore put his speech in the
form OF a message from the farmers OF
Wisconsin to the farmers of Texas, and
then proceeded to tell the 5000 farmers
assembled how alfalfa has lifted mort
cages on Wisconsin farms. He showed
that alfalfa and the dairy business
solved to a large extent the problem OF
maintaining the fertility Of the soil. be-
ing especially efficient in supplying
nitrogen TO the soil He said that nitro
gen for fertilizer costs 20 cents a
pound. but due to the fact that there
were tons and tons Of il in the air the
problem was rather 10 find some meth
cd OF extracting IL at a less EXPENSE.
Alfalfa. he declared, Is the solution.
This plant he said took the nitrogen
from the air and deposited IL in the
soil. so that II the farmer vents to
raise a bumper crop of ANYTHING he
needs only to turn his alfalfa field and
plant Il to the crop desired. He showed
that alfalfa utilized the soil to greater
depth than any other farm crop, and
that il had a feeding value equal TO
wheat bran.
Prof. Moore succeeded in holding the
attention OF his hearers and arousing
a great deal Of enthusiasm for alfalfa
He is considered one of the great au-
thorities on plant feeding in the United
States. and has increased the average
yield of wheat in Wisconsin about five
bushels to the acre He was brought
TO Texas TO address the farmers instf-
tute through the courtesy of the Uni
versity of Texas.
