Mrs. Martin Brien, Miss Sally Jarvis, Miss Vina Brien, Detroit, mental Farms acid in cooperation with pathologists from the Science Service are carrying on an extensive breeding program to create new alfalfa varieties combing winter hardiness and disease resistance. Lastly the persistence of alfalfa stands can be greatly helped ' by proper management. Research has shown that in the average season, September is a critical period in the life cycle of the plant during which time starch reserves are stored in the root's. These reserves not only give the plant greater cold resist- ance but enable it to make rapid spring growth. If alfalfa is cut for hay during' this critical period the subsequent two or three weeks growth depletes these root reserves and winter killing may be severe. If grazed closely throughout (Septem- ber the root reserves are never ac- cumulated and the effect on the next year's stand is equally serious. However, if cutting is avoided in September the growth can be util- ized in October either as hay or late fall pasture without affecting the root reserves, PERSISTENCE OF ALFALFA STANDS Persistence of alfalfa stands de- pends upon a number of factors. Before alfalfa could be successfully grown in Canada it was necessary to. find strains such as. Grimm and Ontario Variegated which were suf £iciently hardy to withstand the Canadian winter. The use of seed of these or comparable varieties, how- ever, is but one of the factors help- ing to ensure the endurance of an alfalfa stand, says Dr. J. M. Arm- strong. Division of Forage Plants, Central Experimental Farm, Ot- tawa. Other factors which determine the ability of alfalfa to remain thrifty throughout several seasons are drainage, the amount of lime available in the soil, fertility, free- dom from disease, and hay and past- ure management. Alfalfa will not do well on poorly_ drained land or on soils decidedly acid. These limitations can be over- come to a certain extent by choos- ing the better drained fields on the farm for alfalfa 'bulture and by re- ducing the soil acidity with applica- tions of lime. Alfalfa is usually classed as an, excellent s oil building crop. Being' a legume, it gathers nitrogen- from the air, later releasing it in the soil as nitrates. It is, however, a heavy feeder of phosphorus. potash and calcium. To maintain the fertility of the soil and the vigour of the alfalfa stand it is advisable to apply 200 to 300 pounds per acre of phosphorus - potash fertilizers on stands two or more years old. In recent years the persistence of alfalfa stands have been greatly curtailed by such diseases as bac- terial wilt and crown rot in some areas. Alfalfa varieties vary in their resistance to the attacks of these disease organisms. At present the Division of Forage Plants at several Dominion Experi• dti HOME MAKERS CLUE Hello Homemakers!
