Excerpt from Alfalfa Growing As was mentioned in the introduction, alfalfa has the power of supplying nitrogren to the soil, and it is a good thing Provid ence provided this plant with this power, for if it did not have it there would be but few soils sufficiently rich in nitrogen to grow the crop for any length of time. This same thing would prob ably hold true to a somewhat lesser extent with the other legum inous crops. For they all contain a large amount of nitrogen or protein. They therefore must be able to secure a large amount of it from the soil. The manner in which alfalfa and the other legumes supply nitrogen to the soil is through the bacteria which live in and upon their roots. These bacteria are not originally present in all soils, for these particular bacteria cannot live with out legumes, nor can the legumes live for any length of time without the bacteria, the principal reason being that the legume is such a greedy feeder upon the nitrogen in the soil that unless the bacteria are present, it soon exhausts the available nitrogen in almost any soil. While all legumes harbour bacteria of much the same nature, it has been found that there are certain kinds that prefer each particular leguminous plant. This is probably due to the fact that these particular bacteria have adapted them selves to this plant. These bacteria are so small that they can scarcely be seen with even a microscope oi' the highest power. It is believed that they are absorbed by the minute root hairs along with the water, and after being absorbed irritate the rootsto such an extent that plant juices are automatically thrown out at the spot, thus forming the little appendages called nodules in which the bacteria live. These nodules vary with alfalfa from small whitish lobes the size of a pin head to clusters of these lobes one half inch in diameter arranged somewhat like a bunch of grapes. These bacteria after becoming domiciled in the nodules attached to the roots multiply at an extremely rapid rate, and are able to absorb the free nitrogen found in the air spaces of the soil, and work it over into nitrates, a definite chemical com pound and a plant food of the highest value, in which shape the alfalfa itself or any other plant can utilize it. These bacteria therefore are very essential to alfalfa, no matter where it is grown. In the soils of certain districts throughout the West it seems there are enough of these alfalfa bacteria or other bacteria of a similar nature that can readily adapt themselves to the alfalfa plant, so that it is unnecessary to inoculate the alfalfa at the time of planting. Such is not the case here, however, though the continued planting of alfalfa on our irrigation pro jects may in time develop these bacteria so that they will become so widely scattered throughout the soil that it will be found till net-essary to supply them artificially.

Excerpt from The Book of Alfalfa; History, Cultivation and Merits: Its Uses as a Forage and Fertilizer To avoid the appearance of both special pleading and exaggeration the statements have been guarded, and many of a laudatory nature, which fully authenticated facts seemed to justify, have been omitted, as neither the author nor the publishers have desire or willingness to extol unduly a commodity so little needing it as that: of which the volume treats. Alfalfa's strongest commem dations are invariably from those who know it best; none are incredulous who know it well, and none have grown it but wished their acreage increased.

Excerpt from Alfalfa, "the Grass" In Ohio: Where, How and Why to Grow It Recent investigations show that lucerne was brought to several Eastern states in this country from Europe and grown as early as 1800. But the people knew little about its merits and nature. Cattle and sheep easily bloated upon it and there was a prejudice against it on this account, and by many it was looked upon as too poisonous and dangerous for use upon the farm, and it was quickly crowded out by common clover. In addition, the rapid and continuous growth of Alfalfa made it too laborious and difficult to cut with the scythe. The modern implements used in farming have not only doubled but multiplied the production and possibilities of alfalfa, the grandest grass that the Bountiful Giver of all good has ever instituted for the farmer, to lighten the toils of the tiller of the soil and double the rewards of his patient and intelligent labor.

Excerpt from Alfalfa Production We are, however, still importing from other states considerable quantities of alfalfa. Hay to supply our dairy needs. As the acreage of new land suitable for alfalfa in California is rapidly diminishing, and as the number of dairy cattle must inevitably increase in order to supply the demands of an ever-growing population, we are prob ably in no danger of overproduction.
