Alfalfa or Lucerne ( Medicago sativa). Requires deep, rich, well- 
drained soil. Roots very deeply, the tap-root descending often 
to a depth of 10 to 15 feet in loose soil. It is, consequently, capable 
of resisting great droughts. Should be sown alone (about the same 
time as oats are sown in this section) in thoroughly prepared, 
deeply plowed soil, at the rate of 20 to 25 pounds to the acre. It is 
also successfully sown as late as August and up to the middle of 
September. The crop should be cut when the plant is coming into 
bloom. In suitable soil it is perennial and several crops may be 
cut every year. Height 1 to 3 feet. We handle home- as well as 
foreign-grown Alfalfa. Lb. 35c.
