GETTING ALFALFA STARTED 
(Continued from page 155) 
will tend to firm the soil for one thing, 
and of course all the while you are keep¬ 
ing down the weeds. As a matter of fact, 
one of the worst things that alfalfa has to 
fight against is weeds. They will choke 
alfalfa out quicker than anything. 
Of course another thing is lime. Alfalfa 
needs lots of it. If your land has never 
had much lime on it, it won’t hurt to put 
two tons of ground limestone to the 
acre. If you are in the limestone belt you 
should at least put a ton of limestone in 
and harrow it thoroughly. 
Buy, Good Seed 
Seed is one of the controlling factors 
as far as success is concerned these days 
and I know you are going to feel it when 
you are going to buy it because good seed 
is expensive. But I firmly believe if you 
are going to grow a crop, make sure that 
you get a crop and you have to spend, 
money to get something. Be sure to get 
northern grown seed and there is nothing 
like Grimm alfalfa. It would be safest 
for you to consult your county agricul¬ 
tural agent or farm bureau manager in 
your local county. Our farm bureau 
man was the one who got me started in 
alfalfa years ago. I had heard a good 
deal about alfalfa but could find nobody 
that knew much about it. Our farm 
bureau man gave me instructions about 
proceeding and we have had several 
demonstrations since. I personally think 
that if we farmers would use the farm 
bureau more we would get along much 
faster.—E. E. R.
