their comparative value under the
sandy soil conditions of the Columbia
Basin. The varieties under trial in

The Baltic, Grimm Cossack and
Liscomb are hardy varieties which
were developed in the northern states
TO Withstand winter killing.
Winter injury in this section is not
serious. so these particular varieties
are grown to test the value for seed
production.
Seed Is Valuable.
The seed of the hardy varieties
brings nearly twice as much on the
market as that of the common. Pre-
lminary trials Indicate that Baltic has
a tendency to outyield all the other
varieties and may become a profitable
hay variety 1t is also possible that
subsequent work may prove that Bal
tic and Grimm viii be valuable on
seepage ground with a flnctuatlng wa
ter table on account OF their branch
ing root system. The Hairy Peruvian
and Indian are varieties grown extern
sively in the Southwest where they are
exceptioally high yielders but may not
prove hardy enough for the Colum bia
Basin. The common strains have
been procured from several sections
Of the country to try in comparison

there is not pronounced difference be-
tween the strains OF common.
Soil EertiI;ty Importat.
The extremely low humus and nj
trogen content of the virgin sandy
soils of the Columbia Basin make the
subject OF soil fertility one of first i'm
portance. The fertility experiments
with alfalfa consist OF trials of COM
mercial fertilizers and barnyard ma

rather high in potash and phosphorus
so these elements have not given
enough increased yields to justify their
own use. When manure is used in ad-

there is a slight indication that the
yield is higher than the yield on plats |
having manure alone.
