GREAT ACTIVITY
Thousands of Acres Being
Planted to Alfalfa
and PaSturage

CALIPATRIA, Nov. 30.-Thousands
of acres of land in the north end OF
Imperial Valley are being put into crop
this fall which lay idle in 1921, which
augurs well for the prosperity of the
farmer the coming year. j. t. Collins,
well known east side rancher, is put
ting in 5000 acres of alfalfa and bar
lev. all of which is already sold for
pasturage.
The great number of dairies coming
into this vicinity, together with the
thousands of head of cattle brought in
for fattening, has brought up the price
of alfalfa pssturage until it is now at a
premium. This has given an impetus to
the planting of this staple crop. The
Vail company got in an entire ear load
of alfalfa seed and J. *. Griffith, local
dealer. is authority for the statement
that $4,000 pounds of alfalfa seed was
sold by him this fall, much of which
is already i'll the ground.
When the farmer is not able to I'm
ance the planting of alfalfa, the seed IS
supplied him by the stock men, TO be
paid for III pasturage when the alfalfa
is high enough to pasture. Thus hls
crop is sold before the seed is IN the
ground.
