VARILTIKS
' OF ALFALFA
Special to The Reporter.
WASHINGTON Oct. 24. Tho In-
creased Interest in varieties of nlfalfa
aud tho need for the farmer to know
whether u certain arioty Is aultablu
for hla neighborhood have led to the
publication of I'. S. Detainment of Air-
rlculture Farmers' Bulletin 757 Com-
mwrciat Varieties of Alfalfa
In this
bulletin of 24 pages tho authors 11. A.'
Oakley and If. L. WeBtover of the
Ilurcnu of Plant Industry discuss In
detail tho characteristics and habits
of tho nluo fairly distinctive commer-
cial strains of nlfalfa now recognized
InN tho United States together with
their adaptation to climatic conditions.
Some glvo tho best results In the
North and Northwest while others
uuecoed only In tho South and South-
west whoro tho winters aro mild.
Whenner possible tlio authors have
Indicated methods of distinguishing the
seed of ono variety from another.
"Common alfalfa" in-a term- that is
used to include all of tho alfalfas that
aro not clearly of hybrid origin or
that do not haye distinct and uniform
varlotal characteristics such at tho
Peruvian and Arabian varieties. Num-
erous strains aro coming to tlio rec-
ognized in tlto "common" group. They
aio often designated by tho geographic
namo of tho locality whoro grown as
Katibas grown alfalfa Montuua grown
alfalfa and many others or by some
term descriptive of tho conditions un
ilnp urlilnli Mil II prnn linft V lln!W'll
such as dry land alfalfa irrigated al
falfa and uonlrrigatcd alfalfa.
Strains doveloped in tho Boutb us-
ually produce larger yields than those
developed In the northern states but
they aro less hardy. Tlio "dry land"
alfalfa seed offered on the market has
so far failed to show any noticeable
superiority In ability to resist drougut
over that grown with an abundance
of moisture.
Tho commercial TurkeBtan alfalfa
has been testod quite thoroughly in
all parts of this country ana in near-
ly every caso has proved Inferior to
American grown strains.
Tho leading commercial strains of
variegated alfalfa are tho Orlmm the
Baltic tho Canadian variegated and
Bond lucern With the exception of
sand lucern. they have been found
wore resistant to cold than other com-
TntrMnl varieties or strains and are
thirirnre recommended for sections
where winter killing occurs frequent
iy
rr.tvlan alfalfa is not resistant to
severe cold and can bo grown success
fully only where ine winter leiaper-
tura is comparatively mild as in the
Southern and Southwestern states.
Under favorable conditions it outylelds
any other commercial strain. v
Arabian alfalfa is not a satisfactory
variety because of its tendency to be
short lived.
As a result of numerous experimen-
.. ... th nrtantatious of the var
ious varieties and strains of alfalfa
havo neeu quite definitely determined.
It Is highly advisable that the farm-
er should learn to distinguish good
from poor seed. Plump seed of an
olive-green color almost nvarlably
germinates well while shriveled or
brown. Beed generally -germinates. poor-
i trT.v. pnrp nt any appreciamo
quantity of weed seeds or other lm-
'... inrfii.f.r .i Door auallty of
peed.
Owing to the fact that alfalfa does
not produce seed satisractoriy under
humid conditions there is little use
In trying to grow it for seed in tho
Eastern States.

That u satisfactory quality of book

thu wasto otalk fragments produced
In preparing hemp fiber for market
la a conclusion reached by specialists
of the Ur S Department of Agrlcul-
tnro as a result of commercial tests
made in co-operation wltu a paper
manufacturer. Tho experiments and
tho economic conditions surrounding
thu use of hemp hurds as a paper-
milking material aro described in a
now Professional Paper of tho De-
partment of Agriculture Bulletin 404.
The investigations demonstrated
that tho hurds can bo reduced chemic-
ally to paper stock by tho soda pro-
cess under practices llttio different
from thoo employed for the manu-
facture of pulp from popular wood
Slightly more bleach was necessary
and boating was found desirable for
a eomowhat longer period. As against
tbeso items of Increased expense in
comparison with popular wood aa a
ray material the first preparation of
tho hurds at tho mill is less expen-
sive. It is necessary only to atevo
tho latter whllo the wood must be
chipped with expensive machinery
Storage possibly would be more ex-
pensive for hurds as storing in tho
open the method employed for wood
probably would be Impracticable.
Because of the lightness of the
hurds charges of this material In the
digesting chamber must ba smaller
tlinn charges of nonular wood. The
experiments showed that tho wightl
of tho charges ran about 605 per cent
of the weight of popular wood char
ges. Tho total yield of air-dry flDer
from hurds was 33.1 per cent aa com-
pared with about 47 per cent of air-
dry fiber from popular wood.
.Hemp is grown In Kentucky Ohio
Indiana Wisconsin and California. In
Kentucky however the fiber is sep-
arated from the stalks by band brakes
moved about the fields and the hurds
therefore are so scattered that their
use for paper making la not economic.
ally practicable it Ms only in tlie
other states named where large ma
chine brakes are employed and the
hurds aro deposited in stacks that the
waste may be drawn practicably as a
paper-making material. About 5000
tons of hurds are produced each year
In the machine braking districts. Tma
Is on Insufficient supply of the mater-
ial to warrant the erection of a pulp
mill or even to Justlty transporta-
tion to existing mills but It is ex-
pected that thtf available tonnage will
increase because of the extension pi
hemp growing and increasing use of
machine brakes.
Calculation by the Department's
specialists of the raw material and
acreage necessary for a permanent
supply of materials for a pulp mill
producing 25 tons of fiber a day for
300 days per year ox 7.500 tons a year
sn0w3 that the annual growth from
40.500 acres would be required In the

Col. Roosevelt denounced secretary
