GROWING ALFALFA
IN WARD COUNTY

Mr.. John Ahlgren of Ryder, who
tells you in this issue about growing
alfalfa has for the last years grown
alfalfa successfully and finds it one of
the best crops he can raise.
To get good stand of alfalfa, a
solid seed bed is essential. Ground
which has been into corn or potatoes
the year before especially If deep
plowed and kept clean is ideal. AS
soon as ground is fit in the spring, go
on it with disc, set to cut not over
three inches deep. Disc just enough to
level the field and cut down the ridges.
Right after follow with the harrow,
with teeth set slanting backwards so
as not to cut deep, you want to con-
serve all the moisture you can. Rake
together and burn all rubbish left
from preceding crop. At intervals
during the spring especially after
rain-go over the field again with the
harrow to kill weeds and preserve
moisture.
Get seed of hardy variety. l have
found none better than the Grim to
Withstand our severe winters. For
vigorous growth innoculate your seed
which can be done by getting soil
from an old alfalfa field, scatter it
broadcast and harrow it in at once,
or by getting Nitro Culture either
from the dealers or from the U. S.
Department Of Agriculture, Wash
ington, D. C. Seed your fields the
first or second week in June, if seed
ed in rows 80 inches apart pound
to the acre is sufficient. If drilled
in inch rows, 6 or pounds to the
acre will give you enough stand.
Once or twice during the summer
clip the alfalfa with the mower set
to cut at least 6 inches from the
ground to prevent it from going to
seed. and discourage any weeds
growing in the field. The next year
fence at least part of your field to
hog pasture, turn in your hogs and
watch them laugh and grow fat. I
have found nothing to compare with
alfalfa in this part Of the country
for hog pasture. Cut the rest for
hay and feed it to your brood sows
in winter. It will save half Of their
grain feed besides keeping them
healthy and in~fne condition, and you
will be surprised how much of it they
will eat. BY following the plan out
lined here you will have no trouble
in getting alfalfa to grow-I never
have-and you will realize more from
your alfalfa field than any other
piece Of groud on your farm.

also Tonic Tablets and PuraLaxa for
removing the water. This treatment
is specially prescribed for each pa
