from eight to ten inches high and
is growing rapidly since the rain

through one end of the field makes
the pasture ideal. This clover
takes the place of about thirty acres
of blue grass and twenty acres Of

clover is kept chopped down close
because of the amount of stock
feeding on it. Most farmers fail
to do this, it is said, and the plant
