the whole supplies of alfalfa seed are larger than last 
year. There was, however, practically no carry-over. 
The demand for alfalfa seed continues very heavy 
because it is such a big money making crop. With 
price ceilings removed we expect prices to advance 
steadily as the season for seeding draws near. Our 
advice is to buy early, and get wholesale prices. 
Sowing Alfalfa 
Get your seed bed as fine and well packed as possible. Sow 
a little later than Red Clover witha very light nurse crop. 
Better still a little later seeding after some advance harrowing 
to kill weeds. In such case sow without a nurse crop. Fif- 
teen poveds ner acre is plenty. Do not cover over half an 
inch, Roll, it possible after seeding.. Inoculate your seed.
