Farm Journal Visit Reports on Honey Creek Alfalfa and Clover
The writer recounts visiting seven farms in Honey Creek township. At Mr. Meyer's farm he notes fine shorthorn cattle and thoughtful son-partners, with alfalfa fields feeding the herd. Limestone and phosphate trials show improved alfalfa growth, while other stops record lime effects on alfalfa yield, clover seed harvests, and soil differences. The Maple Lawn farm showcases white blossom sweet clover and seed yield, with remarks on weed suppression and drainage, plus a vivid comparison between sweet clover sod and corn stubble. The piece ends with reflections on drainage and soil management observations across the region.
