credit, but discouraging it. For

The high pr1ce of alfalfa' seed
has raised the question,of.what is
the 'best seeding Yale. Everyone
agrees that 6 to' 8 alfalfa plants
per sq.• ft. is' adequate in an
established 'stand. 'The question
then is,how many 'lbs. 'of seed are
requited to get this stand. In the
pa,st, farmers'tended to overseed
because of. rough seed beds,
poorly calibrated seed, drills,- late
seeding' dates and using seed .of
unknown germination. This, seed
was often' bought over the back.
