PURE ALFALFA SEED

The increase in the produc-
ton of alfalfa seed in Lincoln
County this year makes it more
necessary than ever that the
official grades of seed be
known. This is particularly
true as to noxious weeds, a
great many of which can be re-
moved entirely. Large dodder
may be easily found and iden-
titled in the field. Its rather
slender, yellow or yellow
brown tendrills that wind up
the stem and reach across to
other stems, finally forming a
net work over acected areas
makes it more conspicuous
than other weeds. This weed
also produces a seed that is
practically impossible to re-
move from alfalfa by any
means--and it produces them
abundantly. 1t is recommend
ed that the affected spots of al
falfa be cut close to the ground,
