WEEKLY LETTER Bureau of Mines, Manufactures and Agriculture. Alfalfa In proportion ts its value there is less alfalfa raised on Arkansas farms than any other farm crop. If you want to know its value, go to town and buy a bale or a bushel of seed and see. You might say if you raised it that you couldn’t get that price for it. Suppose so. You can feed it to stock and get the value that way. Alfalfa is good for all kinds of stock. Hogs and chickens will eat the hay. The hogs will eat the hay and the chickeos will eat the leaves or the hav if it is chopped up fine enough. Alfalfa is a rich feed and goes a long ways. Alfalfa is one of the best plants for the land and enriches the soil. It is not hard to grow and yields well. We have a | small plot of it on the State Capitol grounds, sowed last September and cut four times j this year, already. Now is alfalfa time—this year, this month. Remember the fol lowing rules and plant from one to twenty acres this month. Land The land should be well drained or dry, of good soil, with clay subsoil. Sandy loam will do if not more than 50 per cent sand. River bottom buck shot land will do. Soil with a hard pan will not do. Soil with a gravelly subsoil is usually good for alfalfa. Preparation. Plow deep—8 inches. Then spread ground limestone four tons to the acre. Disk harrow both ways. Take a heavy roller and roll the ground at least twice. Let it stand about ten days and then double disk and double roll again. In ten days plant. Planting. Harrow the ground and cross harrow about two inches deen. Then cross harrow again about one inch deep with i section harrow. Then sow i 3bout 21 pounds to the acre with a hand seeder. Cross harrow again about one inch deep, and roll with a light roller both wavs. Leave the ground smooth and firmly pressed. Before sowing be sure you get good seed, art' .liso get inoculation culture fu the s ted. Do not fail to inocu i late. Seedsmen sell lrmcuhitior culture, and will give you in 5''maftbns h -w to use it It our l.-nj is not rich, put weir rotted manure op. it be for breaking. Plant on land as fret i r- :>i weeds as possible. Do not plant in the spring. Do not tail to prepare your seed bed well . R •mend) ■!' your work is don.. j when the planting is done To follow cow peas with al alia, you c in disk the land instead ot breaking the first time, or break it shallow. It is a good idea to sow cow peas with alfalfa. Folkw these instructions and you can get from three to five tons of hay to the acre next year. If you are a renter, get the land lord to furnish |the limestone. NOTICE.
