All the news all the time in the ALFALFA HOI'S THE SOIL. Long Roots Curry Humus Deep Down and Enrich the Land. "At the Kansas station alfalfa roots have been traced to a depth of over nine feet, while at the Colorado ex periment station Dr. W. P. Headden has washed out the roots of an old alfalfa plant to the depth of nearly 12 feet, says an alfalfa leaflet. Va rious reports have been made, with out good authority, of finding alfal fa roots at even greater depths. It is without doubt one of " the deepest rooting plants grown on the farm. "Alfalfa will do more for western agriculture In the next 50 years than all the other 'crops which farmers may be able to grow In this region. The soil of western Kansas and of much of the western plains is usually rich in the mineral elements of plant i food, but, as stated before, it is often ) lacking In humus, which becomes es peclally noticeable If the land has been farmed continuously to wheat for a few years. By growing alfalfa It Is possible to Increase the supply of humus In the soil, and the roots of the plants pene trating deep into the subsoil disin tegrate and deepen the soil, and al together greatly improve its texture giving it greater capacity to absorb and hold water. The beneficial ef fect on the soil of growing alfalfa Is only Incidental to the rapid Introduc tion of the crop throughout the west. The great value of the crop as a money maker Is the main factor which Is introducing It Into the ag riculture of the Central west. Where alfalfa can be successfully marketed or fed. no other crop grown In the west will yield so great a net profit per acre in a series of years. LONG CONTEST CASE.
