The following testimonials from the experimenters will in some 

 degree indicate the value of Turkestan alfalfa in the different States. 



ARKANSAS. 



Mr. C. T. Burns, Lynn, Lawrence County : 



Alfalfa is practically unknown here. The seed received was sown under favor- 

 able conditions and came np well, but about the time it began to show green 

 over the field, we had a long drought which killed out many of the plants. I 

 think if I can get a stand it will be of great value, and on rich land the produc- 

 tiveness will exceed any of the grasses. I should have sown earlier. 



Mr. H.N. Jameson, Calhoun, Columbia County : 



Alfalfa has never been sown before in my immediate neighborhood. I selected 

 a thoroughly drained, rich, loamy, well-prepared soil, which received no fertili- 

 zers. The seed came up well, but the young plants were washed over by a water- 

 spout on the 12th of May and ruined. I believe alfalfa will grow here.
