Army men and others who are alive
to the country;s acute under-supply
Of first class cavalry and general
utility horses, as the shortage OF them
was brought painfully to light during
the recent World War, are looking for
ward to the Endurance Test for saddle

This test, designed to promote the

August 1920 BEST DATSS
FOR STARTING ALFALFA.


Kentucky farmers who expect TO
start an alfalfa crop this fall Will CD
tain best results with the legume by
sowing 1t during the period of August
10 to 20, according to suggestions
made by crops specialists. In the
southern part of the state there is US
ually little risk in sowing as late as
September /. The crop requires a deep
fertile, wel-drained soil and will not
make satisfactory growth on poor
land. While most Kentucky soils con-
tain sufficient potassium for aliaita
many of them outside of the better
blue grass ones will require liberal
treatments with some carrier of phos-
phorous. Limestone also is an essen
tial fertilizer for alfalfa and must be
applied to soils not containing it be-
fore these will grow the crop.
A favorable moisture condition IN
the soil is the first requisite in fall
seeding OF the legume according 10
members of the crops department OF
the College of Agriculture. This con-
dition will be present if the seed bed
has been prepared early so as to store
ND moisture in the soil. The use OF q
heavy roller, before seeding Will bring
the moisture closer to the snrfact and
permit shallower covering of the seed
The most favorable condition for seed
ing is present Immediately after a
rain. It usually pays to wait as long
az is safe to obtain this condition.
The use of a clover-seed drill Will
give the best distribution of the seed
and, unless the bed is txtremerly loose
the most uniform covering OF seed. BE-
cause the seed is all covered and to a
uniform depth. somewhat less seed Is
reouired BY this method than where
the covering Is done with a harrow
In cases where 1t has ralned slncs 'he
