This field had been in two 16 acre parcels last year , The top half was a second year stand of Alfalfa , and the bottom was sowen to spring grain and under seeded to a mixture of 40% Red Clover , 40% Alfalfa, 20% Timothy. The bottom half was lightly covered with manure . So this year the top half was 3rd year stand of Alfalfa , and the bottom half was first year stand of Red Clover . Next year the Red Clover will be gone , and the Alfalfa will take over . I do not buy any Fert, and we don't ever lime our ground here , as there is a lot of natural lime in the ground . So much lime it kills our coffee makers and water heaters if you don't have water softeners. I usually turn hay fields over every three years , so the top half should be manured and ploughed down this fall , but I might let it go one more year as I have 57 acres to seed down on this place next year, and it won't fit well with my rotation . This hay was cut one day and baled the next, then wrapped . Red Clover is tough to make dry hay from , but is excellent feed in wet wrapped bales . Bruce

But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
