ant as a supplementary fall-sown crop for hay, forage or silage, yielding 8 to 15 tons of green, or 2 to 3 tons of cured forage

nitrogen. Sow in the fall at the rate of 12 to 15 lbs. of seed per acre, either broadcast or drilled in.

and in Europe; very scarce.

nutritious and rich in protein elements. It grows 2 to 5 feet high and sends roots, 5, 10, 20, and sometimes 30 feet into the 
subsoil. It needs one season to become established, after which it yields enormous crops annually for many years. 3 or 4 
cuttings nor season, aggregating 4 to 6 tons cured hay per acre, are harvested, according to conditions and locality. It does 
well on all good rich soils (except heavy clay), if well drained, or overlying a permeable subsoil; on calcareous soil it thrives 
especially well. Sow in the Northern States during June, July or August, 30 to 40 lbs. of seed per acre if broadcasted, 25 or 
to 30 lbs, if drilled. In the South sow in February or September..
