732 The earliest of the annual Lespedezas. 
The abundant growth, deep penetrating roots 
covered with nodules makes Korean Lespe- 
deza an outstanding grazing and. soil-build- 
ing legume, It makes larger growth than 
the Common, 15 to 24 inches, single plants 
having a spread of 3 feet; has larger leaves, 
furnishes pasturage three weeks earlier, It is 
highly resistant to drought, and thrives on 
poor, worn-out soils where alfalfa and clo- 
vers fail. 
Holds its leaves well and produces a full 
crop the first season. It is an annual, re- 
seeds indefinitely although closely grazed. It 
is highly recommended for the upper South 
where the seasons are shorter and the sun 
less severe. Korean is especially good for sec- 
tions with short growing seasons, because it 
matures its seed crop earlier than the others. 
It produces on all soil types where the com- 
mon varieties grow, but in producing Korean 
for hay, fertile soil will give much greater re- 
turn. if Korean is used in permanent pas- 
ture mixtures, the seed may be planted with 
other grasses and clovers in the spring, USs- 
ing from 5 to 10 pounds of seed per acre. 
When sown alone broadeast 25 Ibs. to the 
acre. February and March are the_ best 
months to plant. Korean Lespedeza_ Clover 
Seed is in short supply and higher prices are 
expected. Lb. 30¢; 5 lbs, $1.15. For larger 
wquantities, see price-list in back of catalog.

increases earrying capacity 
of pasture lands from 25 to 
50%. Grows on poor soils, 
including acid types, and sup- 
plies grazing during the sum- 
mer and fall months when 
most pasture plants are suf- 
fering from hot sun. On 
good soil will produce an ex- 
cellent growth, and*reaches a 
height of from 18 to 30 
inches. The small stems of - 
the plant make it an. ily

be planted on a well-pre d

ruary or March. On grazing 
crops sow_10 to 15 pounds 
per acre. When planted alone 
for hay crop sow 26 Ibs.
