The digestive coefficients of sweet clover hay are entirely sat- 
isfactory. It seems that the great objection to the hay is the 
flavor and the fact that it becomes woody if it is allowed to 
ripen. It is believed that there are possibilities for this plant in 
Wyoming if it is cut at the right time and properly cured and 
cared for. It grows well and the yields are large. The nutritive 
ratio is 1:32.2, as found by this experiment, which makes sweet 
clover a narrower ration than alfalfa,
