WHEN To CUT
ALFALFA FOR HAY
SHOULD BE CUT BETWEEN ONE
TENTH AND FULL BLOOM
THREE REASONS

Experiments conducted for several
Years on the cutting of alfalfa for
hay at the various stages of growth
have brought the following conclu-
sions, states b. G. Allison, extension
agronomist at the University of Idaho.
All factors considered, the alfalfa
should be cut when from one-tenth
in bloom to full bloom. When alfalfa
is one-tenth in bloom numerous new
shoots will usually be found starting
at the crowns of the plants.
There are three reasons why nay
should be cut between one-tenth
bloom and full bloom in this state.
First, the alfalfa stand is preserved.
Second, more hay is produced than
with earlier cutting and higher
quality hay is produced than with
later cutting. Third, pasture is af-
forded the honey bee, which is an
important insect in this state.
Cutting in the bud stage reduces
the yield of the hay crop. The plants
do not have the comeback and con-
seouently the second and later cut
tings will not-.be as heavy. Ii alfalfa
is continually cut at bud stage the
stand will become thin and the f1eld
weedy.
Whether the alfalfa is cut at one
tenth bloom or full bloom seems to
make little difference on the result
ant stand. On large field cutting
should start perhaps when in one
tenth bloom, in order that the field
may be completed before the alfalfa
passes the bloom stage.
Alfalfa cut in the seed stage makes
inferior hay because of loss of leaves
and increased woody and indlgest1ble
stems.
The feeding value of alfalfa hay is
largely in the leaves. Forty to sixty
per cent of the weight of the alfalfa
plant is in it's leaves. Four-fifths OF
the crude protein free extract and tat
is in the leaves. Three-fourths of the
fiber or woody portion of alfalfa is
in the stems.
Larger gains are made per head per
day when fed alfalfa hay cured from
the bud stage than when fed hay
cured from the seed stage. The hay
cured between these stages produces
nearly the same gain and yields more
hay per acre, which has been ex-
planned and accounted for in the pre-
vious paragraphs.
Farm records kept by the animal
husbandry department of the Unlver-
sity extension division. Idaho, with
feeders from all sections of Idaho
show that with cattle fed hay alone
an average of 2160 pounds of alfalfa
hay were required for 100 pounds of
gain.
Kansas found that 3.911 pounds of
hay cut at the seed stage were re-
quired for 100 pounds of gain, while
only 1923 pounds of hay cut at the
bud stage were required for 100
pounds of gain.
These figures indicate that there
may be a tendency to cut the hay in
very late bloom, or that there is a
lack of proper curing, which means
loss of leaves and inferior hay.
The bee is to be considered Hay
cut in one-tenth to full bloom gives
the honey bee an opportunity to har-
vest the honey crop.

JUL. JAMES 5. STEESE
 ACTS AS ALASKA CUPID
SAYS ALASkANS ARE JUST THE
 TYPE GIRLS PINING FOR

The following appeared in San Francisco paper:
 "This is an advertisement. It is in- tended to call the attention of girls to the opportunities afforded by Alas ka. That is opportunities for getting married
 "Col. James G. Steese, president of the Alaska Road Commission, said the other day that Alaska is the spin sters' paradise The splendid army of young men engaged in Alaskan in- terests are often forced to go to the States for brides. The supply of wo- men in Alaska does not equal the de- mand To my mind there is no more glorious country to live in. There is something about Alaska that gets into your blood. You may pine for the States, until, in sheer hunger of soul, you manage to get back to them but once there you cannot wait to re- turn to Alaska.
 "The men of Alaska are the pioneer type. They are strong, vigorous, healthy, engaged in the greatest bus mess in the world, which is that of subduing nature and making the will derness into a garden
 "Of course this calls for a similar type of girl. Anemic girls and those whose ambition is to have 'strawber- ries, sugar and cream, sit on a cush- ion and sew fine seam,' need not ap- ply. But girls of spirit, and healthy girls, who love outdoors and achieve ment, girls who want to be mates for strong men and bring wholesome off spring into the world, in short girls of good sound stock and blood, ought to pay some attention to the prospects offered by Alaska"
