} CLOVER SEEDS. 



ALFALFA, or LUCERNE. (Medicago Sativa.) A clover-like, leguminous plant of great importance as a hay and forage crop, 

 nutritious and rich in protein elements. It grows 2 to 5 feet high and roots 8 to 12 feet deep. It needs one season to become 

 established, after which it yields enormous crops annually for many years. Two to six cuttings per season, aggregating three 

 to eight tons cured hay per acre, are harvested, according to conditions and locality. It does well on all good rich soils 

 (except heavy clay), if well drained, or overlaying a permeable subsoil; on calcareous soil it thrives especially well. Sow in the 

 Northeastern States in the spring, 20 to 25 lbs. of seed per acre if broadcasted, or 15 to 20 lbs. if drilled; the latter is advis- 

 able so that cultivation may be given; in the South sow in February or September 



ALSIKE, or HYBRID CLOVER. (Trifolium Hybridum.) 

 excellent for land that is "clover-sick" 



Equal in nutritive value to the Red or Pea Vine Clover, and 



Bokhara Clover. (Melilotus Alba.) A strong-growing perennial of value for green manuring, especially South, also largely 

 grown for the excellent food it affords throughout its season for bees 



Japan Clover. (Lespedeza Striata.) A low-spreading perennial, much like white clover, of great value in the Southern States 

 for forage and green manuring 



Mammoth Red, or Pea-Vine Clover. (Trifolium Pratense Perenne.) 



RED CLOVER, Medium. (Trifolium Pratense.) Our seed is of high germination, pure and free from weed seeds. 



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. Price subject to change without notice. (See cut.) 



CRIMSON or SCARLET CLOVER. (Trifolium Incamatum.)_ An annual of strong, erect growth, 1 to 2 feet high; important 

 as a supplementary fall-sown crop for hay, forage or silage, yielding 8 to 15 tons of green, or 2 to 3 tons of cured, forage per 

 acre; very nutritious and rich in protein. As a winter cover or soiling crop it is of great value, being a great soil enricher, 

 adding humus and nitrogen. Sow in the fall at the rate of 12 to 15 lbs. of seed per acre, either broadcast or drilled in 



WHITE CLOVER. (Trifolium Repens.) Should be used in all mixtures for permanent pasture and for lawn
