8 HENDERSON’S TESTED FARM SEEDS 
CRIMSON OR SCARLET CLOVER, inGkenatim 
The Most Valuable Plant Known, for Restoring the Fertility of VVornout Soils 
All lands from which crops have been harvested during the summer and fall should be sown with Scarlet 
Clover for plowing under the following spring. Plowing under a good crop of Searlet Clover is equivalent 
to 20 tons of stable manure per acre. 
It is the cheapest source of nitrogen and has revolutionized the methods of farming in many States, 
has restored to profitable cultivation thousands of acres of poor land. Its value as a winter soil mulch 
and for green manuring for orchards cannot be overestimated. 
If intended for feeding, it should always be cut while in the young stage, and never fed to stock after 
the crop has ceased flowering, as serious results are apt to follow the feeding of overripe Crimson Clover. 
In the latitude of New York, time for sowing may extend from July 15th to September 15th, and further 
South up to October. The seed needs to be only lightly covered, and a good plan is to sow on fresh plowing 
and cover with a light harrow. Sow 15 lbs. per acre.
