t Thj' Time- to Buy Alfalfa Seed .
It isconcetied btyboth scipntific. and
practical farmers that alfalfa is one of
tho most profitable crops that can bo
grown In westorn Nebraska; that it
can bo grown almost any place in the
Platte Valfejrjvery successfully with
out irrigation, And vithout doubt the
valleys in the sand.hills and especially
in the country UuRfcPhcrson and Arthur
counties alfft!fcun be grown profitable.
The trreaticaw back to tho sowing of
alfplfa hasMSoten the high cost of the
seed, most years' thou seed costipg
from $10 to $15 per bushel. By roaaon
of the fact that tho past, .soason hn3
beon very dry, it was especially favor
able for tho ripening of alfalfa seod,
and it is more plentiful this year than
ever before, and by reason of that fact
the price is much loss than ever known
in Western Nebraska. Good sued can
qe purchased thie full at $5 per bushel.
One bushel of seed will sow from three
to five acres. Now with corn nt 70c
per bushel, twenty bushel of corn will
buy tho seed for twelvo acres of
ground.
lSvory aero or land in any valley in
the sand hills with a good growth of
alfalfa Is worth $100. It will produce
three (rood cuttings and tho hay is as
valuable for feeding hogs ns. it is
cattle. Wo have had a long spell ot
dry weather which almost insures good
rains in tho spring, which will put tho
land in excellent shape for soedlng to
alfalfa.
Get your seod this fall whilo it is
cheap and ruiso hogs and alfalfa.
Remember that it is tho hogs which
nay the dobts and will build tho new
houso and barn.
