Alfalfa on Wildwood Farm and How to Succeed With It (Classic Reprint) - Tapa dura

Excerpt from Alfalfa on Wildwood Farm and How to Succeed With It

Farmers of Ohio are hearing much of alfalfa through their agricultural papers at the pres ent time; but few of them have heard of it until within the last twenty years, the old files of the papers being silent. We thought it was some thing new to the world, and are surprised to learn that it is at least as old as history and that it was grown in Central America and Mexico one hundred years ago. There are alfalfa fields in Texas, New Mexico, and California, some of them one hundred years old. We have not known, but it is a fact, that alfalfa under the name of Lucerne was grown in parts of New York and New England a century ago.
