STARTING CROPS ON THE JUMP
Good Seed And Seeded With Plenty
Of PIantfood Needed.

Starting alfalfa on the jump requires
that the seed bed be well prepared
and that the plants be given plenty OF
plant food. Alfalfa requires a rather
compact seed bed. It's preparation de-
ponds upon the preceding crop to
great extent. When seeded after early
crops. such as potatoes, the need of
summer following is eliminated and
the farmer gets market crop during
the same season. The general prac
tice is to pillow the ground early, har.
row each week or ten days, until the
weeds are killed and the fine, firm bed
that is required is obtained. Many
farmers have received good stands by
seeding in the corn before the last
cultivation.
To secure quality seed, it is best to

mended for alfalfa incubation, can
be secured. Lime must be added
if the soil is sour, and from 200
to 500 pounds of fertilizer high
in phosphoric acid should be applied
preyious to or when the seed is sown.
Profitable alfalfa culture is not dill

details, from the preparation OF the

1.-THE kind Of soil on which to grow
alfalfa, in my opinion, is loan of
reasonable fertility, where water will
not stand for any length of time. If
the ground is low, tile draining should
be done. Pillow deep, use at least ton

This with 600 pounds of high grade
fertilizer, drilled in, supplies the food
for the growing plants. The same
amount is used each year as top dress

manure, more fertilizer per acre would
be needed"

Nine hundred and ninety bushels OF

average of SO bushels per acre-ls the
record crop grown by S. c. Goggin, IN

The land upon which the corn was

for several years had been either

was planted May and Z, in rows

average distance of the corn in the
rows was Is inches. The corn was
