. Currie's farm and garden annual : spring 1919 44th year. Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Bulbs (Plants) Seeds Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Nurseries (Horticulture) Catalogs; Plants, Ornamental Catalogs; Gardening Equipment and supplies Catalogs. CURRIE'S ALFALFA (Lucerne) 3HEDICAGO SATIVA. STRICTLY CHOICE DOMESTIC. Alfalfa Is a crop of inestimable value. It may be cut 3 to 4 times a season, each cutting bringing- enormous yields (.10 tons and more) of sweet nutritious forage mucii relished by all kinds of stock. It is an ex- cellent soiling crop and makes the best of hay when properly treated, being in itself the nearest approach of any farm product to a perfect ration. The Seed should be sown broadcast at the rate of 20 to 30 pounds per acre, and seeding may take place from about the middle of April, or earlier, should the ground be in good con- dition, until late in August or September, without a nurse or cover crop. The soil must be deep, rich and well-drained, and the seed-bed well prepared. The in- oculation of the seed â with a commercial culture such as "Nitragin" (see below), immediately before sowing, will materially assist in the production of a crop. The seed should never be so^vn on heavy, sticky clay land w^here water stands a short distance below the surface. As a land enricher Alfalfa is unsurpassed. The long root-s, 10 to 15 feet under ground, bring up lots of buried mineral fertilizer, while like all the Clover family, it is a great nitrogen gatherer. No farmer should be without it. GennLne Montana GrOTvn SeedâRecleaned. Because of the particularly rigorous climatic conditions of Montana, strains of Alfalfa produced in that state are considered better able to withstand the severe winters and trying conditions of other northern states.
