izo it requires a well-drained field to Insure any success whatever with I it. Those who sow on undrained fields are simply throwing time and money away. Inoculating the seed appears foolish to some who have not had experience with soybeans or alfalfa, but this little task should never be 1 overlooked. Some failures In growing the crop can bo traced directly to g lack of inoculation. Inoculation is t . unnecessary In fields which have 3 had inestablished stand of alfalfa lt before. ,1 In case inoculation material or g soil from an inoculated fluid cannot , t be obtained, a supply of soil for the purpose can be obtained at the conn- , ty agent's office. J Present Condition of the Crop t J For the most part alfalfa fields In Adams county came through the l_ winter in good shape. However, > some fields are seen to be practically winterkilled, this usually being caused in Insufficient drainage. In other cases inquiry reveals the farmer pastured the field late in the fall, which is extroniely harmful. In still other cases the field was so low in fertility the young plants were unable to attain sufficient size to go through the winter. I The ice sheet experienced during smothered some alfalfa but the acreage destroyed in this nionner is very small. o — PURDUE PLAN’S FOR SEMI-CENTENNIAL been completed for the observance of the semi-centennial anniversary of Purdue University which will be fittingly celebrated May, 1,2, and 3.
