good for subsequent years also. Fol-
lowing the spring tooth with o spike

Conclusion-Many have established
successful fields of alfalfa by using
numerous methods at variance with
the one suggested above, Your chance
for success will be greatly increased
by following this outline. We have had

ALFALFA SUCCESSFULLY GROWN
IN KING COUNTY

Alfalfa is being successfully grown
on more than one hundred farms and
in tracts of from one acre to fifty-five
acres in King County. Good yields of
hay are obtained on a majority OF
these fields and the crop is proven
profitable one. For those who are
planning to plant alfalfa in this sec
ton, the following suggestions will
prove of value,
Land-Select we'll drained land,
which has been cleaned of grass by a
cultivated crop the previous season.
Fertilizer-Apply good coat of
manure poultry manure preferred)
and 500 to 600 pounds of superphos-
phate per acre in February or early
March.
Soil Preparation-If soil is light, disk
in as early as you can get on the land
the manure and phosphate, but do not
plow. Cultivate once week or ten
days with spike tooth harrow until
seeding time,fr ON May LIST to June 1st.
If soil is heavy with considerable fall
and winter growth, the manure and
superphosphate may be disked in and
plowed under and remainder of treat
ment same as above until seeding time
from May is to June 18th.
Seed-Use grimm alfalfa seed Ccerti-
fled seed preferred Is to 10 pounds
per acre.
Inoculation-Sec incubation from

ington conditions. Apply according to
directions with the package.
Seeding-Sow broadcast, by hand
wheelbarrow seeder or blizzard seeder
and cover with spike-tooth harrow with
teeth well slanted back so the seed is
not put too Deep One-half to three
fourths inches is good depth for
alfalfa seed. If the ground is loose
roll preferably with a cultipacker or a
corrugated roller.
Weeds-Weeds will probably come as
good as alfalfa. Do not cut the weeds
until just before they go to seed. How
ever, if alfalfa begins to turn yellow
generally over the field before this
weed stage is reached it should be cut.
Examine for inoculation-When the
plants are ten inches to foot high,
take shovel full of plants up and
carefully break the dirt away from the
roots and look for the nodules formed
by the bacteria in the incubation. If
you find them, well and good. If not
the alfalfa will die out by starvation
in about two years from lack of suf-
ficient nitrogen. However, one can

cutting and narrowed in we'll with q

well established there will be sufficient
late summer and fall growth SO that it
should be cut and taken off the field

First year after seeding-If soil is
loose and dry enough to work when
alfalfa starts growing in spring, work
well with spike tooth harrow. Do not

They know that the West, and par
ticularly Washington, must be reck-

potatoes, our eggs and other products
in their markets, and they are working
to meet our quality and standards.
Those people back there are also
beginning to recognize the advantages
that our State offers in climate,
scenery, Turing conditions, production
and industry. Communities and States
are organizing to offer attractions to
keep their people from moving out
here, and to bring in others from sur
rounding states. We can meet this
competition but we must do it in an
organized and efficient manner We
must be prepared to put over our pro-
gram of telling the world the facts
about Washington as a continuing and
increasing effort. If we do this Job
efficiently it will pay us big returns.
