Seeding of Sainfoin and Lucerne. 



mixtures have kept the land clean, and last year gave well- 

 mixed hay of excellent quality. Plots i-io, on the parts 

 where wheat was grown in 1S95, were much better than 

 where vetches were grown in that year. The sainfoin was 

 ready for mowing about a week earlier than ordinary hay, 

 and the lucerne rather later. The seed-mixtures sown on 

 plots 3 and 9 were evidently suitable for this land for at least 

 two crops of hay in succession.
