the expected time of planting and
should be kept in fine condition and
free from weeds by frequent disking
and narrowing following rains.
Planting about the middle of Au-
gust gives alfalfa the best chance to
make a good and enduring stand. On
we'll prepared land the seed should be
broadcast by hand and pressed into
the soil with a cultipacker. If a drill
is used, it should be set very shallow.
There is danger of planting the seed
too deep. Twenty pounds to the acre
is the usual rate of seeding.

Alfalfa Is Exacting But Not Hard
To Grow

While alfalfa is not difficult crop
to grow, it is an exacting one and has
probably given disappointment to
more farmers than any other single
farm crop. Usually, however, the
disappointment has been due to the
fact that one or more of the essential
requirements for alfalfa has been
overlooked or not adequately met,
says F. W. Oldenburg, specialist in
agronomy for the University of Mary
land Extension Service.
The essentials for successful alfal-
ia production in the order of impor-
lance are fertile, well-drained soil,
an adequate supply of lime, good seed
of the proper variety, carefully pre-
pared seed bed and incubation on land
that has not previously grown alfalfa
or sweet clover.
While alfalfa is a legume and is
generally classed as soil improving
crop, it is not poor-soil crop. AL
liiOoG any IyPS VI sui, pioNiuSu ~ 10
well drained, will produce alfalfa, but
it must be reasonably fertile. Alfalfa
will not thrive on poorly drained soil.
Lime is necessary for successful al
falfa production and it is unwise to
attempt to grow the crop on soil that
has not been tested for acidity.
Common alfalfa seed from the
northwest is recommended for Mary
land conditions. Seed from the south
west or from irrigated regions should
be avoided while seed from South Am
erica or from other foreign countries
will mean disappointment. On soils
where alfalfa heaves out badly in the
spring, Grimm alfalfa may be better
than the common variety.
Too much work cannot be devoted
to preparation Of the seed bed. The
land should be plowed well ahead of
