We can grow four tons of alfalfa hay
from an ordinarily good acre of our
land ana with intensive methods of
preparation of the ground. and good
care of the crop. five tons of hay may
be obtained
There are land men in Michigan who
sell land. and take the clover seed from
two acres Of land each year as pay
ment on Il fOrtyacre piece of land.
and with no other payment the land is
paid for III a reasonable length of time.
Rusk county land averages much bet
ter than Michigan or Dakota land. and
we believe the farmers who get into
the clover business here along with
their hay. pasture. grain and dairy bus
mess. will soon have their land paid
for. and have buildings. stock and
equipment that will make them indie
pendent.
