Spring Cultivation OF
Alfalfa Saves Crop'
From Insects Pests
DR.. Titus Advises That to Keep Crpp
Growing Rapidly is Most
Important.

The difference Of three or five
days in the cutting of the first crop
Of alfalfa spells success or failure.
Through disking or spring toothing
as late in the spring as possible will
break up the hard soil, divide the
alfalfa crowns and give the plant an
opportunity for growth several days
earlier than 1t would receive under
ordinary conditions. This will also
aid by killing many grasshopper eggs
and alfalfa buttrfly pupae that are
present in the field. thus preventing
injury by these insects. Keep first
crop growing as rapidly as possible.
When the alfalfa can be pastured
off quick and thoroughly with sheep
It is advisable, but early spring pas
turing with horses, cattle or hogs Ia
not advocated. When the first crop
shows signs of serious injury ii
should be cut and removed from the
field as rapidly as possible. Then go
over the field with a spring tooth
harrow or alfalfa cultivator, follow
ing this treatment with heavy brush
dragging. This should leave the field
with fine mulch over the surface
; and the alfalfa stems bare, the leaves
having been torn off. This leaves
the worm in suffocating dust and
without feed. It is well not to irri-
gate for one or two days after this
treatment in order to give the sun
and dust time to get results.
DR.. E. G. Titus says: First, keep
the alfalfa growing rapidly in the
spring by disking or spring toothing
second, remove the first crop as soon
as serious injury occurs. and spring
tooth and brush-drag the land i'm
mediately and thoroughly; third. ro'
tate the alfalfa at least every five
years; fourth, clean up all around the
farm, especially canals, ditch banks
weed patches, garden and around th'
farm buildings; fifth, carful
thorough, timely work will do muci
toward securing good results.
Do the work on your farm righ
and try to persuade your neighbor q
use good methods in caring for hi
alfalfa, but. II your neighbor will no
care for his alfalfa, take care Of your
and the crop will repay you.
