Sixteen Livingston county girls,
one from each of the townships, will
compete for the honor of ruler over
the realms of King Alfalfa. Four
residents of the township from which
the queen is chosen will be enriched
through gifts of 10 tons of lime to
each of the four who will be selected
by lot from residents of the township
who register at the celebration.
Livingston county is the first in
Michigan to give formal recognition
to the fact that alfalfa has become
one of the main supports of agriculture in this state. The crop is most
popular in dairy sections where its
high protein content is turned into
butterfat, but its uses as a soil builder; a cash hay crop, or as a seed crop
have been responsible for the rapid
increase in acreage devoted to alfalfa
in Michigan. '
