SESAMUM 
sesamum is an annual of easy culture. It grows 
to a height of about three feet in this climate and 
ihe large flowers are very attractive to the bees. 
Apparently if the plant was cultivated in sufficient 
acreage it would be a source of surplus honey. 
It blooms in late summer. 
This plant is grown in very large acreage in 
the tropics and is an important food plant for mil- 
lions in Asia. It is important principally as a 
source of edible oil. which is one of the best for 
table use and congeals less readily than olive oil. 
sesamum has been grown with success. at 
the Nebraska experiment station where a study of 
its commercial adaptation is under way.
