ALSIKE. or SWEDISH CLOVER. 

 (Trit'olium Hybridnm.) 



Hardiest of all the Clovers, and on rich, 

 moist soils yields an enormous quantity 

 of hay or pasturage. Valuable for sow- 

 ing with other Clovers or Grasses, as it forms a thick 

 bottom and increases the yield of hay. Sow 6 pounds 

 per acre when used alone.

CRIMSON CLOVER. 



(Tbe Great Nitrogen Gatlierer.) 



The best crop for Hay, Silage and green manur- 

 ing—all winter and spring pasturage. 



For hay it must be cut before it comes into full 

 bloom, as otherwise it may cause hair-balls to 

 form in the animal's stomach. 



This popular Clover Seed is grown successfully 

 in Delaware, Maryland and Virginia. The yield of 

 fodder is immense. Its growth is very rapid and 

 luxuriant, and, therefore, it is valuable as a fertili- 

 zer to turn under. It is fast becoming a popular 

 crop in the Middle States and the South, and is 

 finding its way into Pennsylvania and the West. 

 It is used on poor and rich land. It is seeded in 

 this country in June, July, August, September and 

 October, and will produce an enormous crop early 

 in the following spring, suitable either for con- 

 sumption as green food or for hay. Ten or fifteen 

 pounds should be sown to the acre, according to 

 quality of ground.
