Alfalfa Growers Laud Its Value Across States

The article collects quotes from A P Grout of Winchester Illinois and Joseph E Wing of Ohio praising alfalfa. They cite long lasting yield on well drained soil, up to five to ten harvests yearly, and high nutritive value comparable to wheat bran. They urge farmers in Illinois to adopt alfalfa for wealth and herd benefits.

Alfalfa Pioneers Profit from Six Acre Illinois Patch

Charles Yauney of McLean County grows alfalfa on George S. Hayna Place. From 1906 to 1909 the six acres produced strong yields with three hay cuttings and hog pasturing adding value. In 1908 hogs netted $462 and hay $195, totaling $657 or $109 per acre, with continued resilience after winter setbacks. Coburn on Alfalfa praises the crop as modern agriculture’s pinnacle and vital for the Corn Belt’s protein needs.
