from Agricultural Review of the Year 1922

The growth of hay was retarded by the cold, dry spring, and much of the seeds was a thin plant as a result of the drought of 1921, so that hay crops were also very unsatisfactory. Most of the seeds hay was secured in good condition, but the bulk of the meadow hay was more or less weathered, and the quality of a fair proportion was impaired owing to delay in cutting.
