Vetch Fodder Circular Promotes Soil Fertility Grower Value
Secretary F L Sherman of the Minot Commercial club issues a March 25 1912 bulletin on the winter vetch or hair vetch Vicia Vitiosa as a soil improver and forage.

The plant reseeds annually is highly nutritious for cattle hogs and other stock and can replace or supplement alfalfa with soil nitrogen benefits seen by experts and growers in Indiana and beyond.
