The proportional value of these two last, and of 

 the T. pratense, and the brown-leaved variety of T, 

 repent, are equal: they exceed the T. repens, as 8 to 10. 



The comparative produce of these four last men- 

 tioned species, per acre, has not been ascertained.

The root of this species of clover is biennial; it 

 penetrates to a great depth in the ground, and is in 

 consequence little affected by the extremes of wet or 

 dry weather. It requires good shelter, and a deep 

 soil. The produce, when compared to that of others 

 that are allied to it in habit, and place of growth, 

 proves greatly superior. The following particulars, 

 some of which refer to results stated in the next two 

 pages, will make this manifest: Ibs.
