Alfalfa fur Cows.
Is is the opinion of the most ex
perienced in the matter that the
production of alfalfa is an essential
to the successful prosecution of the
dairy interests in California. The
days of the old-fashioned mountain
dairy arc gone. The market de
mand now is for the creamery but
ter, and the product of small travel
inn dairies is no longer sought by
dealers. The output of individuals
is too uncertain as to quality, and
generally stroking, ot too low a
grade to find favor with customers
111 competition with butter bearing
the stamp of n first-class creamery.
It is the uniform excellency of the
product of well-managed creamer
ies tiiut eives them the control of
the market, along with the tendency
in all lines of production to develop
the processes and methods that arc
most economical and scientific.
There has long been a prejudice
that alfalfa imparts a peculiar aim
unpleasant flavor to butter, but this
is not well founded. It is not at all
true where alfalfa is fed in connec
tion with other foods in suitable
proportions. There is no better
butler than that made in California
from cows fed upon alfalfa, but not
exclusively uixm that plant. It is
one of the best and most nutritious
of feeds, and with a certain amount
of grain or brnu it makes n well
balanced ration. bacramento Uec
