Special Notices hy A. I. Root 



THE NEW ANNUAL WHITE SWEET CLOVEE ; ITS RAPID 

 GROWTH. 



I planted the clover seed which you so kindly sent 

 me. I made two plantings of it, so as to make sure. 

 The early planting produced two plants; the later 

 planting twelve plants, which are now 23 inches high- 

 Tlie old variety planted at the same time are about 

 13 inches high, althO' I think they have the better 

 situation. I will give them a fair chance and will 

 report the final outcome later on. Yours sincerely, 



M. Y. Calcutt. 



8126 47th Ave., S., Seattle, Wash., July 11, 1919. 



P. S. — The clover I said was 23 inches high 

 (that was yesterday's measurements) today I find 

 to le 24%. 



The above is further proof of the fact that this 

 new .sweet clover makes as big a growth in one year 

 as the old does in two seasons, and perhaps more 

 than that; but I am sorry to tell you that our supply 

 of seed is now exhausted, so that we cannot send 

 even H little i^inch, and there will be no more un- 

 til, say, October. The plants we have in the garden 

 are making a tremendous growth, like thos-e men- 

 tioned in the letter. We will hold the addressed 

 envelopes that may come until the new seed will 

 germinate.
