CRIMSON CLOVER. 



The most valuable crop in existence. 



Crimson Clover is one of the most important plants 

 of recent introduction, and its value is now so thor- 

 oughly established that we have no hesitation in rec- 

 omrr: ending the sowing of Crimson Clover on all lands 

 that have been heavily cropped. It is one of the most 

 rapid growing plants we have — three or four cuttings 

 can be made in onej'ear, and makes the best of hay: 

 superior even to Common Red Clover. Sown in Feb- 

 ruary, March, April or May, it will make a heavy 

 yield of hay, or if plowed \mdericiil zqual the best 

 barn-3-F.rd manure and be more lasting th&xi any com- 

 mercial fertilizer, plowing under a crop of Crimson 

 Clover is equivalent to twenty tons of stable manure to 

 the acre, and even if the clover is harvested or pastured 

 beforehand, the benefits derived from the wonderful 

 root formation will alone many times repay the cost 

 of seed and labor. 



Crimson Clover will improve worn out and poor 

 soils more rapidly and permanently than any other 

 plant in existence. It is therefore f/2e cheapest and 

 best fertilizer, also the cheapest and best food for all 

 kinds of stock. There are several types of Scarlet or 

 Crimson Clover, one only of which is hardy and which 

 we OiTer for sale. It will succeed and grow almost 

 anywhere, where the ground is not frozen all the time.
