ALFALFA, or LUCERNE. (Medicago Saliva.) A clover-like, leguminous plant 
of great importance as a hay and forage crop, nutritious and rich in protein elements. 
It grows 2 to 5 feet high and roots 8 to 12 feet deep. It needs one season to become 
established, after which it yields enormous crops annually for many years. Two to six 
cuttings per season, aggregating three to eight tons cured hay per acre, are harvested, 
according to conditions and locality. It does well on all good rich soils (except 
heavy, clay), if well drained, or overlaying a permeable subsoil; on calcareous soil it 
thrives especially well. Sow in the Northeastern States during June, July or August 30 
to 40 lbs. of seed per acre if broadcasted, or 25 to 30 lbs. if drilled; the latter is advis¬ 
able so that cultivation mav be given; in the South sow in February or September. (See 
cut.) Price, 30c. lb.; $15.50 bush, of 60 lbs.; $25.00 100 lbs.
