ARGENTINE ALFALFA SEED
NOT ADAPTED TO DELAWARE

Large importations Of Argentine
alfalfa seed. unaGapted to local
conditions, are moving into this
country on account of The shortage
OF domestic seed and the wide diff
ferential in price between Argen-
tihc seed and domestic seed.
Use of this seed in Delaware
may. lead to crop failure or lower
yields, and {. +. Phillips. agrOn-

depending uI0n the severity of the
winter, and even in years when
the weather * not severe enough
to cauS Wintcr-kiliing. the yields
may be much lower. Since all of
Delaware is north of the 3Sth de

cannot safely be used anywhere in
the state. Argentine alfalfa is
also very susceptible to the serious
'bacterial-wilt" disease.
Although there is ample acreage

plenty of seed during I945. the
supply of adapted alfalfa seed for
use this year is somewhat less
than was available last year. Mr.
Phillips says that the following
practices will greatly relieve this
short seed situation:
IOp-drcss existing stands of al
1alfa With GOO pounds of an U-I4-14
fertilizer or its equivalent per
acre. This fertilizer should carry
50 pounds of boraX per ton if the
field has not been treated for boron
deficiency in the last two 10 three
years. Cut alfalfa only three times
TINS coming season. and do not

practices Will prolone the life OF

soil. Use AT least 800 pounds per
acre of a 2-12-12: fertilizer which
contains 50 pounds of borax rer

cover lightly. Excellent results
have been secured by seeding after
cultipacking and then cultipacking
