Wheat-Vetch Mixture — This is a natural mixture of Selected 
Wheat and Hairy Vetch standardized to the proportion of 70 parts 
wheat to 30 parts vetch. Both are winter-hardy and of high ger- 
mination and the mixture is free from impurities in the form of seeds 
of other crops or of weeds, and of inert matter. 
With early fall seeding this mixture should yield greater benefits 
than selected wheat alone. Forage produced will have higher 
feeding value and tonnage should be greater. Through the nitrogen- 
fixation by the vetch, soil improvement will be greater. 
A can of bacteria inoculant for the vetch is included in each bag 
and should be applied to the seed mixture according to directions 
on the can before seeding. ) 
Timothy — This is the most common hay species grown in the 
Northeast and the one most generally seeded in all hayland and pas- 
ture mixtures. It is seldom winter-killed and is exceptionally per- 
sistent. It stools abundantly and tends to increase the yield and 
dependability of the forage stand and is of high nutritive value when 
soil fertility is maintained at a high level and when the crop is cut 
at the proper stage (early bloom).
