 gathers from the air and stores in the plant and root. Sow Crimson Clover at 

 the last working of all crops like Beans, Corn, Melons, Cucumbers, Tomatoes, 

 and other crops whenever the land is not intended for such early spring crops 

 as would not be benefited by following such a seeding, although it would pay 

 to seed for only fall and winter months if only for protecting the ground 

 through the winter and catching and holding the fertility of the soil, which 

 would otherwise be lost by leaching or other causes. We offer the finest quality 

 recleaned seed at 12 cts. per lb. (20 cts. per lb. by mail). For larger quantities
