Winter vetch is a name sometimes
applied by American seedsmen to hairy
vetch. The term winter vetch, how­
ever, should not be applied to hairy
vetch, as it is properly applied to the
winter strains of common vetch.

the past year the average cost per

which was brought nbout largely
through the spread of the ares testing
