clover and rye-grass mixed. The weight of hay from clover and rye-grass varies according to the soil and 
the season, from one to three tons per English acre, as it is taken from the tramp-ricks ; but after being 
stacked, and kept till spring, the weight is found to be diminished twenty-five or thirty per cent. 
The value of clover and rye-grass hay, in comparison with the straw of beans or pease, may be in the pro- 
portion of three to two; and with the finest straw of corn crops, in the proportion of two to one. One acre 
of red or broad clover will go as far in feeding horses or black cattle, as three or four of natural grass. And 
when it is cut occasionally, and given to them fresh, it will probably go still much farther, as no part of it is 
lost by being trod down. 
The saving of clover seed is attended by considerable labor and difficulty. Clover will not perfect its seeds, 
if saved for that purpose early in the year ; therefore it is necessary to take ofF the first growth either by feed- 
ing or with the scythe, and to depend for the seed on those heads that are produced in the autumn. 
The produce in seed may generally be from three to four or five bushels per acre, when perfectly clean, 
weighing from two to three hundred weight. But there is great uncertainty in the produce of clover-seed, 
from the lateness of the season at which it becomes ripe; and the fertility of the soil is considerably impaired 
by such a crop. Yet the high value of the seed is a great inducement to the saving of it, in favorable 
situations. 
T. incamatum is sometimes sown as a border flower. 
1601. Lotus. Acaro;, in Greek. There were three sorts of Lotus distinguished by the ancients ; viz. their 
tree lotus, which was our Zizyphus lotus ; the marsh lotus, which was our Nymphasa lotus; and the herbaceous 
lotus, which appears to have been the present genu.s. 
The pods of L. edulis are still eaten in Candia, by the poorer inhabitants. Lotus rectus has by some been
