TIMOTHY. (Phleum Pratense.) We offer a 
particularly ‘‘choice’’ sample, free from weed 
seeds. Large quantities of Timothy seed are on 
the market which are so foul with noxious weed 
seeds as to be dear as a gift, and there is no 
sound reason for farmers to sow such seed when 
we offer pure seed of high germinating power 
at such reasonable prices. Price subject to

. .CLOVERS... 
ALFALFA,or LUCERNE. (Medicago Sativa.) 
A permanent clover of great value on all soils 
which contain lime in any form, and should be 
much more extensively grown. One of our cus- 
tomers in Logan Co., Ohio, cut four crops in one 
season. The aggregate length of the four cut- 
tings was over ten feet, and made six tons of 
cured hay per acre. Alfalfa should be cut every 
time it comes in blossom. whether the growth 
is short or tall, for if allowed to form seed, it 
shortens the life of the plant. Sow in drills, 12 
lbs. per acre; broadcast, 18 to 20 lbs. per acre.. 
ALSIKE, or HYBRID CLOVER. (7rifolium

or Pea Vine Clover, and excellent for land that

RED CLOVER, Medium. (Trifolium Pratense.) 
CAUTION.—Every care should be exercised in buying 
Red Clover, for there is always on the market at a 
cheap price, large quantities badly infested with weed 
seeds, which in size and appearance closely resemble 
Red Clover, and cannot be cleaned out. When pure 
seed is expensive, as it is this year, Red Clover is 
frequently purposely adulterated with Yellow Tre- 
foil (a small yellow-flowered annual clover of little or 
no value and apt to become a weed), sold to the 
uususpecting farmer by country merchants who 
do not have the expert knowledge to detect it, and 
upon whom it is foisted by unscrupulous dealers, 
Our seed is of high germination, pure and free from 
weed seeds and foreign matter.
