LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL 



Maj. W. A. Graham, 



Commissioner of Agriculture. 



Sir: — The enclosed manuscript on the subject of Leguminous Crops 

 is in response to a demand from the farmers of the State desiring 

 information in regard to them. I therefore recommend it for publica- 

 tion as the July Bulletin. 



In the preparation of this I have had access to the bulletins of the 

 United States Department of Agriculture, from which I have gotten 

 valuable information about many of the crops mentioned. _ I am also 

 indebted to that Department for the use of many of the illustrations 

 used in this Bulletin. 



The chapter on bur clover was taken almost exclusively from the 

 July, 1904, Bulletin of the North Carolina State Board of Agraculture, 

 which Bulletin is now out of print. 



Respectfully, T. B. Parker, 



Director of Farmers Institutes. 

 Approved for publication: 



W. A. Graham, 



Commissioner of Agriculture.
