MEDIUM RED CLOVER '113 



producing food and in enriching land, none is equal 

 to the medium red for the two purposes combined. 

 This arises from the fact that none save the medium 

 red grows two crops in one season under ordinary- 

 conditions. Though the first crop should be taken 

 for food, as it generally is, there is still ample time 

 for a second crop to grow for plowing under the 

 same season. This second growth is ready for being 

 plowed under when time is less valuable than it 

 would be when the mammoth or alsike varieties 

 would be in season for being thus covered. And 

 yet the work may be done sufficiently early to admit 

 of sowing fall or winter crops on the land which 

 produced the clover.
