Drought Aids
Seed Growing

Shortage of water this summer has
taught many Boise valley farmers
that they can grow alfalfa seed, ac-
cording to w. B. Tucker, Ada county
farm bureau agent. Hitherto, they
have thought they could not grow
alfalfa seed, on account of some Pc
culiarity of the soil, but Mr.. Tucker
says the real reason has been that
they have used too much water.
This year, many fields that would be
a practical loss for third cutting
Of hay are producing seed yield that
will be more profitable than q good
crop OF hay. ". @
