Name Address Phone Occupation Bigger Acreage Of Alfalfa Planned By Farmers In Person Person county farmers have been so successful with alfalfa as a hay crop that they plan to increase their acreage consider ably this fall, reports H. K. Sanders, county agent ior the State college extension ; service There are now about 150 acres of alfalfa growing fti the county. A number of farmers plan to seed additional fields in late August or early September W. D.

He expects to get two more good cuttings before the I end of the season. L. M. Burton of the Mt. Tir zah section obtained excellent results from a field seeded to alfalfa in the fall of 1947. He turned under lespedeza and red olover, prepared the land thor oughly, and fertilized liberally. After applying 1,000 pounds per acre of a special alfalfa ferti I lizer (2-12-12, with boron) and 450 pounds per acre of phos phate, he seeded 25 pounds of alfalfa seed on each acre last August. Then he ran a log roll er over the seed to pack the land. This one operation, he said, enabled him to obtain an excellent stand of alfalfa. J. D. Winstead, Sr., of the Olive Hill section, who has probably been seeding alfalfa longer than anyone else in the county, has always been well pleased with the crop. On Aug ust 27 last year he seeded five acres, and on November 4 he reported that he had a good stand six to seven inches high. H. Roy and Zeb Rogers, brothers, of Bushy Fork com munity, have five acres of al falfa which has been establish ed for several years Fire Destroys 888 N. C.
