has proved, 1st. that it will yield more per acre with same 
culture than any other variety which matures as early, iid, 
that in manv instances it has ripened in 85 days from plant- 
ing 1 . 3d, that it produces from one third to double the 
quantity of foliage, making it highly valuable for fodder or 
soiling;. Prices are within reach of all to give it a trial.
