Soil Preparation For . v Alfalfa Production The first step in growing alfalfa is to build up the fertility of soils on which it is to be planted unless they are already in good condition, says R. J. Harris, superintendent of the central experiment station, farm at State College. .???When the soil is acid, one to three tons of lime should be applied to the acre'. He suggested that growers send samples of their soil to State College to be tested so that the amount of lime needed to neutralize any existing arid conditions can be determined. . Soil that has been neglected or which is in a poor state of fertility should have heavy applications of manure early in the spring. The manure should be mxed into- the soil with a dish harrow. Then a crop of soybeans should be grown and turned under. in the fall the field should be plow ed and allowed to lie fallow during the winter freeaee. Sow lespedesa in February and turn It under when it has reached maximum growth, which should not be later than Sep tember 1. The crop should be disked well before being turned under. Thai the lime should be disked into the soil and the field left to stand for two weeks. Next should be an appli cation of 600 pounds of 4-12-4 ferti lizer per acre and another disking, followed by a section harrow and then a cultipacker. Following the two seasons of jire paring the soil, at least 25 pounds of quality alfalfa seed should be sown to the acre by drill or by hand be tween September 15 an October 15. If the fall seeding does not produce a full stand, another seeding may be made about March 1 to 15 or sooner if the weather is favorable. Double innoculationa give the best results. Bacteria cultures and soil from fields which have been growing alfalfa are good innoculanta. Farmers whose soil is in a high state of fertility may start their al falfa crops this fall without going through the two seasons of prepara tion, Harris said. To Light Rural Homes _ If the plans of Governor Ehring haus's oewiy appointed Rural Elec trification Committee are carried out, a great many farm homes in practi cally every county of the State will soon be enjoying the use of electric service for lights, irons, motors, etc. According to David S. Weaver, agricultural engineer of State Col lege who has been selected by the Committee to make a survey of the State, there is a possibility of ex tending a great many electric Unas in the very near future. Financial as asssstance through Mrs. Thomas OTJerry, State Relief Administrator, : is expected. Local groups of fanners interested m securing this service should get to gether and send Mr. Weaver the fol lowing information: . (1) The number of fanners who will actually connect to the proposed line at ante. (2)- The namber fanners on the proposed tm& woe would proba - bly connect, later.
