are hardier and better able to re
sist diseases and winter killing.
They will anchor their roots firmer
and establish healthier, thicker
growth above ground.
Like other deep-rooted legumes,
alfalfa takes large helpings of phos
phate and potash out of the soil.
Agronomists recommend that heavy
amounts of fertilizer carrying these
nutrients be applied at the time of
seeding.
The life of alfalfa can be pro
longed and yields increased by top
dressing with phosphate or potash
in the spring or fall. Tests at state
agricultural experiment stations
have shown that applications of 300
to 600 pounds or more per acre have
been beneficial.
Good pasture management means
going easy on grazing until stands
are well established. It is wise to
follow a rotation plan so cows will
move from one field to another, be
fore the pasture is grazed down to
the ground. By this system the pas
ture will have a chance to renew it
self while cows are on other fields.

When it comes to moisture some
farmers have a two-fold problem.
For occasionally it is necessary to
remove excess moisture frofh a
wet part of a farm while irrigating
adjoining dry area at the same
time. Such actually is the case on
a Virginia farm.
The story behind this soutkem
farmer's problem is simple: His
irrigated land was producing satis
factorily—but the low, wet acreage
adjacent to it was wholly unpro
ductive. The solution to making
both areas equally productive also
proved simple. Here’s what was ;
done:
No change was made in the irri
gation serving the high, dry land.
The low land, however, received an
“irrigation in reverse” treatment.
"HOW TO WIN MKNOS and
Author of

First of all a ditch was dug across
the area so that the excess mois
ture would drain into it. Then a
vertical type centrifugal pump, as
shown in the accompanying illus
tration, was located at the roadside
end of the ditch. With this arrange
ment, the farmer got practically
automatic results.
Drainage from the low land is
pumped out as rapidly as it ac
cumulates in the ditch. But the
moisture isn’t wasted. It flows into
a creek which supplies water need
ed for the more orthodox irriga
tion system serving the farmer’s
drier acres. Now? he reports, the
formerly neglected wet land is pro
ducing on a par with the irrigated
acres. i

Lower Support Prices,

Lower support prices and lowtr
goals for 1949 early potatoes have
been announced by the U. S. de
partment of agriculture.
Agriculture Secretary Charles F.
Brannan said the low parity price
had been set with extreme reluc

POWER OF A CHALLENGE
•"pHE POWER of a challenge 1 I have sung a song about that
A before; I sing it again. A challenge will move some people
to action quicker than anything else.
John E. Arnett of Prestonsburg, Ky„ is the
local representative of the Kansas City Life
Insurance company which is located in Kansas
City.
He wanted to sell Mr. Ratcliff, in his home
town, a policy, for Mr. Ratcliff was an influential
citizen and the sale would make an impression
on 'other people. So Mr. Arnett went to him
but the other said that he already had a policy
in one company and that he had been rejected
by another company. There was no use in filling
out an application blank. That seemed to be the end of it;
- One day Mr. Arnett went to the store and wrote up a
policy for the man’s partner. Just then Mr. Ratcliff came
in and the partner said, “Tom, why don’t you get in on this
and have a policy with this man?”
- “No need. They won’t write me,” he answered. “I won’t
even consider the idea. Besides, he has already talked to me
about it.”
Then it was that Mr. Arnett did some quick thinking. He
decided to approach him on the ground of a challenge, so he
said, “You know Mark Twain said that a difference of opinion
is what makes horse racing, Wjell, you and I have a difference
of opinion.”
“What is that opinion?” asked the other, mystified.
*It exists as to whether the company will pass you or not,”
answeted Mr. Arnett. “I’ll bet you $5 that I can get you a
policy at the standard rate.”
“Do jpou really want to bet?” asked the other, his interest
immediately challenged. *
“1 do.”
“Fill out the form.” .. -
Mr. Arnett did not know whether or not his company
would accept the application, but he reasoned, “You never can
tell till you try.”
(The medical examination was made, the papers forwarded
A month went by, then Mr. Arnett glided down the
street, a letter in his pocket. Entering the- store, he said,
“Tom, you remember what you said about horse racing?”
“Yes,” said the other, wonderingly.
“Well, there are two sides, but only one winner. Five
dollars, please.”
The other man was delighted Mr. Arnett had appealed to
him by throwing down a challenge.
