nay. Succeeds in impoverished and acid soils. This is a Perennial 
over. 
HAIRY PERUVIAN ALFALFA. Sow about 30 pounds per acre, from 
January to April for Spring and September to November for Fall.

WHITE BLOSSOM SWEET (Melilotus Alba or Bokhara). Sow about 
20 pounds per acre from February to April for Spring, and Sep- 
Alsike Clover tember _ to December for Fall. Resembles Alfalfa in appearance 
and will grow luxuriantly on soils rich in lime and of insufficient

though small for hay production, it is one of our best pasture

hard to eradicate when once planted.
