1. The total yield of dry matter of rye-grass, grown in the presence of inoculated (a) peas, (b) red clover, (c) serradella, in sand with no added nitrogen, after 13 weeks' growth was increased by about three times in the peas-rye-grass series, twice in the clover-rye grass series, and nearly twice in the serradella series in comparison with the yield of rye-grass grown alone.

2. The nitrogen percentage and total nitrogen yield of rye-grass were greatly influenced by associated growth with peas, clover or serradella. Rye grass grown with peas after 13 weeks' growth contained nearly five times, grown with clover three times, grown with serradella about twice, as much total nitrogen, as grass of the same age similarly grown, but in the absence of leguminous plants.

3. Among the three leguminous species tested at Pulawy, peas were the best companions for rye-grass, giving the highest amount of assimilated nitrogen, while serradella gave the smallest.

4. In another experiment, when barley and (a) peas, (b) red clover, (c) lucerne were grown together in sand without added nitrogen, only peas exerted a beneficial influence upon the yield of dry matter and the nitrogen percentage and total nitrogen yield of barley.
