Crimson clover itrifolimn iiicai'iiutuiiil
Is known under a variety of ci.iiiiuuu
names - Annual, Hoi-limn. ' Scarlet, aud
Italiau. This clover is ea-.il' tri-own,
ami should como into iuite gviientl use.
It Is an anliuul, aud coneiuent!v must
be re-seeded for en.li er.ip. " which
malto It important to if row seed at
home. Need may be sown from July to
October, hut the laud should it I wars lie
well prepared for it, or. if nut, it sliould
be well shaded, as under a growth of
cow-pea tines, or In a corn or cotton
crop, where the seed should he sown
when the crop is laid by. tiruwu iu
this way it may be of (treat service in
enriching and holdinif the land from
washing. Its growth is made in the
cool, wet part of the year, and it is
ready to be made into huy at a season
when planters are waiting for cotton
to vogetato for first working. This is
often a dry time, ami the hav can ho
quickly and easily cured. It may often I
ue uesi to sow mis clover with oats, rye,
or barley, and cut all for hav in April
or May.
This clover will thrive on land in
moderate condition, but. like some oth
er forage plants; will pay best w hore
given a rich soil. The composition of
crimson clover hay shows it to be a
highly nutritious food. It is so rich
that for any use it muy well he fed
with some such fodder us straw, mead
ow hay, or cotton seed hulls. When fed
for production of milk, the addition of
corn, or corn and oats, will tend to add
to the good qualities of the product.
The seed distributed in lsy.1 hv the
N. C. Experiment Stution is part of a
orop of ',liH7 pounds from 1 :i-H acres,
which is at the rute of 1,'j.Mi pounds of
seed in chaff per acre. We have made
some tests on this, which if true for
the whole lot of seed, would yield at
the rate of 757.11.'. pounds, or r.' 5-n
bushels per acre of clean seed. This
aeed usually sells at retail for ten cents
per pound, and dealers are now paying
."...Vi per bushel for it. The long, well
tilled heads warrant this a good cash
crop where a good stand can be secured
on land in fair condition. It can be
grown in orchards for the improvement
of the soil, as in Delaware, where it has
come to he a standard crop. The one
drawback is that a special machine
must bo used to clean the seed. A
clover seed hull
could clean the

press of tlu atate to distribute to ap

charges and who would make- careful
trial of same, enough need to plant 13
acre. Thure were 1MH persons who ap
plied for the seed, far more than the
Station could supply, unfortunately.
Indeed a quantity of seed had to lu
purchased to send as many as wus sup
plied. The tirst in names received
were sent the seed. To others full ex
planation was given as well iit at what
points the seed could be privcured. Re
plies retfardinj? the test are now com

Just now the Experiment .Station is
receiving a lot of varied but interesting
information in relation to growing this
plant from the furmers to whom seed
was distributed lust year. Krief direc
