ALFALFA
Alfalfa is rich in
feeding value.
TO PROMOTE ALFALFA.
Burlington to Run Combination
Trains Through Southern lowa and
Northern Missouri—6Co Alfalfa
Lectures to Be Given In Two
Weeks’ Campaign—7oo Automo
biles to Be Used in the Work.
The Chicago, Burlington and Quincy
railroad will run an alfalfa combina
tion railway and automobile train for
a two weeks’ campaign, making about
60 stops in southern lowa and north
ern Missouri, beginning July 28, 1913,
from Des Moines.
The plan, as worked out'by the Bur
lington in co-operation with the Agri
cultural Extension Department of the
International Harvester Company of
New Jersey and the agricultural col
leges, is far in advance of any agri
cultural extension work ever carried
on.
Will Stop at Sixty Points.
Local committees at each of the 60
points oil tho railroad will arrange for
five to ten automobiles to carry the
speakers in all directions into the coun
try to farm homes, school houses and
inland towns within a radius of from
four to ten miles, where alfalfa lec
tures will be given.
During the campaign over 600 al
falfa lectures will be delivered by
tho party to as many audiences, and
from 600 to 700 automobiles will be
brought into the service of this great
educational movement.
These campaigns are conducted on
a strictly co-operative basis.
Tho people will provide:
Ist A guarantee of at least five to
ben automobiles at each railroad stop
to carry tho speakers to tho points
in tho country where meetings are to
bo held.
2nd. Halls suitable for the central
meeting in towns where train stops.
3rd. Any community desiring a
campaign must send in a request to
tho railroad, agricultural college co
operating, or to the Agricultural Ex
tension Department, signed by a rep
resentative number of farmers and
business men.
The railroad will provide:
Sleeping cars and dining service for
tho alfalfa campaign party, and bag
gage and exhibit cars, literature, etc.
The Agricultural Extension Dept,
will provide:
Ist. Speakers.
2nd. Assistance in organizing and
advertising campaign.
3rd. Educational charts and other
equipment for lecture purposes, bulle
tins, literature, etc.
4th. Follow-up men, when possible,
to assist tho farmers in getting a start
with alfalfa.
Hearty co-operation on tho part of
the peoplo is absolutely necessary to
make theso campaigns successful.
SAVE THE ALFALFA LEAVES.
Sixty Per Cent, of the Feeding Value
of Alfalfa in the Leaves—Hay
Should be Cut at Right Time
and Cured so as to Preserve
the Leaves.
Of the entire alfalfa plant, accord
ing to Kansas bulletin 165, the stalk
comprises 60 per cent, and the leaf
40 per cent., whereas the quantity of
the protein in the stalk is only 40 per
cent., while the protein in the leaf i 3
CO per cent. Moreover only 20 per
cent, of the fat is to be found in the
stalk, while 80 per cent, is In the leaf.
It is, therefore, very important that
alfalfa be harvested at the proper
time, and carefully handled so that
all the leaves will be saved.
When possible to do so it is best to
cut alfalfa late In the afternoon or
evening. Dew or rain on the freshly
cut alfalfa will not injure it. Where a
tedder is used, it should be started in
the morning as soon as most of the
dew is off and before there is any dan
ger of knocking off the leaves. It is
often advisable to go over it more
than once.

in much the same way as clover, ex-

cept that it should be cut as soon as
the young sprouts or shoots start to
grow at the base of the plant
When alfalfa is left .too long without
cutting, the leaves fall off and the
stems become woody, and the yield of
the next crop is greatly reduced.
MONEY IN ALFALFA.
J. Otis Humphrey, judge U. S. Dis
trict court, Springfield, Illinois: ‘‘You
can grow alfalfa anywhere in the corn
belt and the crop is worth SSO an
acre.” _ -
