S. A., but when their orders were filled. the remainder of the seed was offer- ed to the world at 0 cents an ounce. In i911 a farmer friend and I each chanced 25 cents, and in due time received the seed. It grew vigorously and as far.as hardiness was concerned, was all that was claimed for it. It was rather coarser than the blue alfalfa and the leaves were not as large, but stock were very fond of it, and horses would leave the grass and come across the field for the dry alfalfa. when they saw a chance of. getting it. Unfortunately for the experiment I found \vork in another part of the province, and the new owner, who was no farmer, . had the alfalfa plowed up! i-ioiwliwrts the presence or two ever when, in 1925, I took up a permanent residence, I wrote to11119 511/"1955 3101119 Gross. my old friend asking about plant; he replied with a packet of the seed grown on the Island.
