Ay BURLEIGH FARMERS - «PLAN EXPANSION OF SEED CROP ACREAGE Disciss Farm Problems at Three | Conferences Called by Coun- ty Agent Putnam A program which calls for the ex-| pansion in the general acreage of al- falfa, sweet clover, corn and other feed crops was adopted at a mecting of 38 farmers called by H. O. Putnam, county agent and held in Bismarck ‘Thursday. The meeting was the third of a series covering the various phases of the farming business as conducted in Burleigh county and was for the pur- pose of determining a workable and practical farming program for the year. Two similar conferences were held here during the past week, commit- tees of farmers having discussed a program of beef production last Sat- urday, while hogs were considered at @ meeting held Monday. J. C. Thysell, of the experiment station in Mandan, and E. G. Booth, extension service crops map from the Agricultural college, were present to aid members of the conference group in formulating their plans. The session was conducted on an open forum plan and discussions cen- tered around seed and_ production methods. That alfalfa is being looked upon as a crop which offers consid-| erable opportunity for successful farming was evidenced by the thor- oughness with which problems per- taining to this crop were considered. Ié was browght out that successful stands were possible with the seeding of as little as seven pounds of seed tothe acre. ° Nurse Crop Planned A nurse crop is being used by the maiortiy of alfalfa and sweet clover growers. However, Mr. Thysell point- 4 cut that yield tests taken of alfalfa seeded without nurse crops gave yields of one-half more tons per acre than when nurse crops were used. Plans were included in the program to provide for the organization of 4-H Crop clubs to use selected va- rieties of corn to be field inspected for seed. Subsequent meetings to dis- cuss feed crops and to present infor- mation as planned by County Agent Putnam were approved. Approved varieties of crops to be grown were discussed and a gumber of farmers will cooperate in trying out some of the new crops. Coopcra- tors to try out phosphate fertilizers were also lined up. Rainbow oats, a variety recom- mended for growing conditions in the county, will be seeded by Alfred Asp~ lund, Wilton; Erickson Brothers, Wil- | ton; H. W. Andrews, Moffit; B. F.j Lane, Moffit; William Fricke, Bald- win; W. B. Falconer, Bismarck; and the Patterson Land company of Bis- marek. The latter also plans on try- ing out Trebi barley and will make tests of prosphates for the growing of alfalfa, Others to Cooperate Other Trebi barley cooperators are Enoch Anderson, Baldwin; Lester Larson, Baldwin; J. P. Dietrich, Bis- marck; J. A. Norlin, Menoken and L. E. Heaton, McKenzie. Erickson Brothers of Wilton will test out phosphate fertilizers on al- falfa. At the beef cattle meeting-held Sat- urday, 21 farmers were present and 18 attended the session on hogs held Monday. In both instances programs of pfogress in the use of purebred sires and better feeding and in the development of 4-H clubs were out- lined and adopted. Arrangements are being made for a conference of sheep raisers to be held in Bismarck soon.
