' That's one of several important points brought out In a bulletin on "AlTalfa Production" which has just been reprinted by the State College Extension Service. The authors of the bulletin, A gronomlsts S. H. Dobson and R.

Doason and Lovvorn. emphasize: that hay is needed in any balanced' feed program and that alfalfa, "king of the hay crops," can be grown sue cessfuily in North Carolina. Alfalfa they say. is rich in proteins, miner als, and vitamins A and D, and is especially good for dairy cattle and all types of young growing stock. The publication gives detailed in ] formation on soil selection, liming,' fertilisation, seedbed preparation.' seeding, cutting and curing. and management.. Persons desiring a copy of "Alfal fa Production" may obtain one from the local county agent or by writing to the Agricultural Editor, State Col j lege Station, Raleigh, and requesting Extension Circular No. 307.
