tions for Clerks in Tabulation Subdivision II, Agricul- 

 ture," being a part of Inquiry 43, concerning hay and 

 forage crops. 



(a) Tabulate as "clover alone" all crops reported after that 

 designation, as well as all reported as "alsike," "red clover," "crimson 

 clover;" also other clovers unmixed with other grasses. The same 

 crops reported as mixed with timothy or herd's grass should be 

 tabulated as "timothy and clover mixed." When reported as mixed 

 with grasses other than timothy or herd's-grass, they should be 

 tabulated as "other tame or cultivated grasses." 



(b) Tabulate as "other tame or cultivated grasses" all crops 

 reported after that designation, as well as all reported as "red- 

 top," "June-grass," "orchard-grass," "blue-grass," and "Johnson- 

 grass;" also all combinations of these grasses with any of the clover 

 crops mentioned in paragraph a, preceding, or with timothy. 



(c) Tabulate as "wild, salt, or prairie grasses" all crops reported 

 after that designation, as well as all reported as "marsh-grass," 

 "swamp-grass," "slough-grass," "bluestem," "daisies," and "butter- 

 cups." 



(d) Tabulate as "grains cut green" all crops reported after that 

 designation without specific names, or with the name "oats," 

 "wheat," "barley," "rye," "peas," "cowpeas," "soybeans," "velvet- 

 beans," or "vetches." Keep a memorandum of the names of all 

 crops reported with specific names and tabulated as "grains cut 

 green." 



(e) Tabulate as "coarse forage" all crops reported after that 

 designation without specific names, or with the name "corn" (see 

 paragraph i below), "sweet corn," "cane," "sorghum," "Kafir corn," 

 "Jerusalem corn," "milo maize," or kindred crops. 



Timothy and clover, alone and mixed, constitute the 

 first three items of the classification under hay and forage. 

 These plants are grown in the humid region (Par. 110), 

 though the New England states, with the exception of 

 Vermont, are not represented. Ohio, Iowa, Illinois, New 

 York, Wisconsin and Minnesota are represented in each 

 of the lists of ten leading states for these forage plants.
