NEW FACTORS SEEN
IN DAIRY OUTLOOK
Lower Production and Rising Com.

E s.: Season Unusual

Lowered production of dairy
products, and Strengthening com
modify price levels resulting from
improved confidence in the bank
ing system, administrative plans
for initiation and pending relief
legislation are favorably affecting
the current dairy outlook, reports
r. M. Turner, extension economist,
State College of Washington. And
Meantime numbers of dairy cows
are still increasing and dairymen
are approaching the flush season
of the year.
Recent advances in butterfat
prices, coming at the threshold of
the flush milk season, are unusual.
The advances are not only due to
lowered production caused by late
pastures and light feeding, but are
attributed in part to generally ris-
ing price levels and present admin
istrative plans. These factors will
undoubtedly play an important
part in the outlook for this sensi-
tive product.
Milk production per cow on Mar.
/ was five percent less than in
1882 and the second lowest in the
last nine years, while total pro-
duction was about two percent
lower. Meanwhile, the number of
cows on farms was nearly three
percent larger than a year ago.

consecutive year in Washington.
The fact that there was not the US

COWS MIXED was one Of the rea-
sons for the lowered total produc-
ton.
Dairy feeds are increasing some

ALFALFA VARIETIES

Chef MCGEE, who is farming in
the Cold Greek section and whose
alfalfa is all of very recent plant
ing, tried out three varieties for
his own information as to adoption
of varieties for his conditions. The
large part of his planting is of
the Common Northern grown var
iety. A field of d or 5 acres was
planted to Grimm and another
field of about the same size was
planted to Cossack.
The county agent recently visit
ed Mr.. MCGEE and checked the re-
suits of winter killing on the three
varieties as planted side by side.
It should be understood that Mr..
McGee's soil runs tothe heavy type
and is deep. 1t has a god slope just
so as to make it irrigate well and
so is not subject to floodings in
any part of the field. ALI of the al
falfa shows little loss from win
ter injury. The Cossack has come
thru with very little apparent
damage. The Grimm shows more
damage than does the Common
Northern grown and there prob
ably is not more than one-half a
stand left in the Grimm field. The
Common probably is midway be-
tween the Grimm and the Cossack.
Contrary to observation in most
places Mr.. MCGEE reports that
land which was watered late or
given an abundance of water was
the land upon which the alfalfa
was killed out. This probably is due
TO the fact that on this heavy soil
the ground froze solid and caused
considerable heating. We do not
recommend that growers plant the
Cossack for the main field but it
may be worth while for growers
to try out a little seed of this var
iety as the occasion may seem to
make it advisable. We have had
several reports this spring of
paintings of Cossack having come
through in very good shape. Mr..
MCGEE feels that the Cossack pro-
duces the largest yield and a good
quality of hay.

It is true that the very backward
season which we have had with no
evening temperatures favorable
for moth flight to date leaves a
situation as favorable as any for

feel that growers should consider
carefully all factors before omit

SITUATION AS TO WINTER
KILLING OF ALFALFA

Good alfalfa hay will likely be
scarce in many sections of eastern
Washington this year. Many alfal-
ia stands froze out during the past
winter. In many cases it will be
necessary to pillow up the fields and
reseed. This should be done if it is
economically possible. But in most
cases substitute crops will be used
in addition to supplement the feed
supply for the year.
Causes of Winter Killing
Al survey of some of the affect
ed areas indicates that winter kill
ing may have been due to several
causes. A severe drying north
wind with no snow covering, to-
gether with a sudden severe drop
in temperature in December and
again in January, were likely the
primary causes. In the milder sec
lions of the state the alfalfa was
still in a growing condition just
before these heavy freezes.
Non-hardy strains of alfalfa
land many of them have been
used) begin to grow during any
warm period and are readily killed
when the temperature falls rapid
ly. The resistance of alfalfa plants
to cold increases as winter ap-
proaches. The hardy varieties and
strains develop this resistance
more rapidly than non-hardy
types. Conditions may be severe
enough to kill any variety, but us
ually injury is less severe in the
hardy types.
Shall Injured Stand Be Left?
The grower must first determine
the amount of injury done. This
must be done now. Injury must not
be counted in terms of dead plant
leaves. Plants that show some,
signs of life may die before the
season is over. Even if they live
their production will be low. Some
show distinct lack of vigor. For
these reasons the stand may grow
gradually less.
IF the stand is reasonably good
say around seventy-five percent
or more, then spring toothing may
put the field in condition SO that
the remaining plants are able to
develop fully and produce a rea-
sonable yield. This might make it
possible to produce satisfactory
hay crop at low cost.
If the stand is somewhat less,
the ground could be put in good
condition by using the springtooth
and spike harrows, after which a
moderate amount of grain should
be drilled in to thicken the stand.
Oats is preferable, although bead
less barley and spring wheat may
be used.
Where the stand has suffered
more severely land some have
less than five percent of good
plants lefty the ground should be
plowed and planted to a substitute
crop. The substitute crop should
be selected with the view of taking
the place of alfalfa as nearly as
possible.
Sow Hardy Seed, When Reseeding
There is great need for reestab-
fishing a sufficient acreage of al
falfa at the earliest possible mo-.

than a dozen states had efficient
highway departments. Roads Of
many types and qualities were
built, often dictated only by politi-
cal considerations. Pioneers in the
good roads movement, seeing the
waste and inefficiency Of the separ-
ate efforts of the states, conceived
the idea of the national agency to
coordinate them and put road
building on scientific and busi-
ness basis. The plan adopted pro-
vided for Federal contributions to
the States only large enough to
win adherence to the necessary ma
tion-wide regulations set up by the
U. S. Bureau of Public Roads.
Since then the influence of local
politics has faded from the road
building picture. Routes connect
ing all parts Of the country have
been established. Standard types
and qualities of roads, varied of
course, to fit local conditions, have
been adopted. Efficient and eco
nomical methods of construction
and maintenance have been put in
operation. All this has been done
with the Federal government pay
ing only per cent Of the cost of
road building the country over.
Motorists are now returning to the
Federal treasury in gasoline taxes
and excise taxes on automobiles
and equipment, more than the
amount of the annual Federal Aid
appropriation, which in recent
years has been $125, 100000. Recent
increases in this appropriation
have not added to taxes, being
merely advances to be returned to
the national government by the
states from future normal appro-
priations.
