Archias’ Northern Grown Alfalfa 
or Lucerne 
(Medicago Sativa) 
“There is no state in the Union in which Alfalfa cannot be suc¬ 
cessfully gTown." 
Alfalfa produces 3 to 7 tons of hay to the acre. 
“Its long, branching roots penetrate far down, and thus consti¬ 
tute a gigantic subsoiler. These become an immense magazine of 
fertility. As soon as cut they begin to decay and liberate the vast 
reservoir of fertilizing matter below the plow, to be drawn upon by 
other crops for years to come.’’ 
Prepare the land thoroughly and sow seed at the rate of 15 to 
20 pounds per acre, with a broadcaster or grass seeder. Cover with 
a brush or light harrow. Young plants are quite tender, and the 
land must be free from weeds until they become established. Lb., 
25c; 5 lbs., $1.00; 10 lbs., $1.75. See below for Nitragin for Inocu¬ 
lating.
