PiITOKITH r2KJ.WBEKItY JOUWTAL THURSDAY, APRIL 15, 193C. PAGE HQHT FARM BUREAU NOTES i Copy for this Department ! furnished by County Agent T A i A i f . Cost of Poisoning Gophers. The Cass County Farm Bureau and the Bureau of Biological Su--' vey have proved that the cost of poisoning gophers is less than one cent per acre. Two sections were poisoned and found that one man ! could poison one section a day. allow- j ing the man $3 for work and 50c for poison and bait, the total isj $3.50, less than one cent per acre, i About three quarts of bait are used. The poison used was a compound of Strychnine Alkaloid, Saccharin, Baking Soda which is sold by the farm bureau for 20 cents a box : which is enough to make one gal-; Ion of poison bait. Sweet potatoes! and carrots were used. I shipped from Cass " county and slaughtered, have been retained be cause of Tuberculosis. .There were 17G6 hogs shipped to the Kansas City market up to March 1. Not one was retained and no legion of the disease was found. Of the 4.SS81 shipped to Omaha, only two -were found to have legion of tuberculo sis. Of the counties that are . ac credited in Nebraska, the premium paid on hogs from these counties in March was 3,555. For January. February and March $9,935. Does it pay to have an accredited county? Tuberculosis in Hogs. j A very small number of hogsj Whv Alfalfa Winter Kills. I have found in traveling over the county in the last two weeks, that such alfalfa seeded last spring and fall winter killed badly. Un hardy and unadapted seed seems to be the main cause of all the trouble, altho late fall seeding has probab ly caused some of it. I believe that Cass county farm ers will be interested in some of the latest information along the line of unhardy seed. For the past two or three years the agricultural college at Lincoln has been doing a lot of testing of alfalfa seed of different varieties and from different sources. It is surprising to most of us to know that an average for the past 6 years we have been Importing about 8 million pounds of alfalfa see, this coming chiefly from Argen tine, Italy, Spain and Africa. This is about one-fourth or one-fifth of all the seed used in the United States each year. Tests show that the imported alfalfa seed is not hardy and winterkills badly.There is no question but that a lot of this imported seed has been and still is getting into Nebraska. Another source of poor, unhardy seed is from the southwestern states in this country. Arizona is an im portant alfalfa seed producing state but seed from there has killed practically 100 per cent in testing at Lincoln and in tests in other parts of Nebraska. Many folks have asked me about Grimm and Cossack and Baltic al falfa seed. These varieties are call ed variegated because the blossoms vary from the ordinary purple to yellow and almost white. The vari egated alfalfa varieties are more hardy. At Lincoln, however, com mon alfalfa has proven very satis factory, and there has been no ap parent difference between it and the Grimm and Cossack. For average conditions the average alfalfa from this stat or from free states with equally severe ' climatic conditions should prov satisfactory. Grimm and Cossack alfalfa seed is more costly than common alfalfa but may be worth the extra cost where farmers want to escape any possible winterkilling. Farmers who are go ing to buy alfalfa seed for this year should insist on getting hardy seed.
