Alfalfa 



PLEASE WRITE FOR SPECIAL PRICES 

 IN LARGER QUANTITIES 



Crimson Clover 



The proper development of Alfalfa largely depends on the soil. It can 

 be grown on many kinds, from sand or sandy loams to heavy clay. It 

 thrives best in deep loams with open, porous sub-soil, where tap roots 

 are not hindered, as the root penetrates to a considerable depth. The 

 quality of the sub-soil is of great importance. If it is compact and im- 

 penetrable, it will be a serious obstacle to successful Alfalfa growing. 

 The soil must, therefore, be kept well drained, especially in early Spring. 

 In poorly drained field Alfalfa will be injured and sometimes killed in 

 the low spots where water has accumulated. Alfalfa, like other legu- 

 minus plants, depends on the bacteria or nitrogen for its vigorous de- 

 velopment? Therefore, it is necessary to use bacteria inocculation In 

 treating the seed before sowing. This will supply the young plants with 

 the necessary nitrogen for a quick start, and will prove advantageous 

 to your stand of Alfalfa. 



The seed bed should be thoroughly prepared. After this is done, ground 

 stone lime should be used at the rate of 1,000 lbs. per acre. It will be 

 best to apply the lime through a drill and roll immediately after liming. 

 This will give you a solid seed bed for sowing your Alfalfa the last of 

 August or the first of September. Twenty pounds should be used to the 

 acre, and be very careful not to cover the seed more than one-half inch.

Rosen Rye 



The Rosen, Rye was brought from Russia in 1909 by Mr. Rosen, a 

 student from Russia attending the Michigan Agricultural College. This 

 rye has been carefully kept 99% pure. Each head fills four complete 

 rows of grain. The grains are much larger than of common rye and the 

 yield per acre is 35 to 40 bushels, while 15 bushels per acre is all that 

 may be expected of common rye. 



Another season has demonstrated that Rosen Rye is better than the 

 common winter rye, therefore plant the best. Per bu. $2.00. 



Winter Rye (Maryland Grown) 



A splendid winter grazing crop. Extremely hardy and will grow on 

 any kind of land. Stands the coldest weather without injui-y. Makes 

 a great deal of humus, and when turned under on the land will greatly 

 help impoverished lands. From July until November is the general 

 range of seeding, though in the lower SoKith it can be put in even 

 later. Plant a bushel to the acre for an early crop and on better soil, 

 or where the crop is put in later use from one and a half to two 

 bushels to the acre. Makes a splendid combination when sown with 

 Gits or Hairy Vetch, Price, $1.75 bu. 



Abruzzi Rye 



Abruzzi Rye is of Italian origin and was introduced in this country 

 about 1904. Abruzzi Rye is better adapted to the South than any other 

 variety. It naatures about two weeks earlier than the Rozen Rye and 

 produces a much heavier growth. Price per bu, $4.00. 



Crimson Clover. Saves Fertilizer bills and increases the Farmers 

 Income Millions of Dollars. Sow liberally, either alone or at the last 

 working of corn or cotton. It makes the land rich in nitrogen and humus

 which follow. It also makes a Fine Winter Cover Crop. A Good Early 

 Forage Crop. An Excellent Grazing Crop During the Late Fall, Winter 

 and Early Spring. A Splendid Soil-Improving Crop. Plowed under early 

 in the Spring it increases the yield of corn, tobacco, cotton or other crops 

 which follow it to a wonderful extent. Sow during July, August or 

 September, 15 pounds per acre. If Crimson Clover is cut just as it is 

 coming into bloom, before the seed forms, it will make a first-class 

 Hay Crop. Crimson Clover can be used for grazing, early green feed 

 or hay ; even then the condition and productiveness of the land upon 

 which it is grown will be wonderfully improved. New crop seed, large, 

 bright, golden berries, fine, plump, well matured. Immediate shipment

Timothy 



1117. Timothy. Of Hay Grasses Timothy is one of the mcst popular, 

 nutritious and salable. On clay or heavy loams, lowlands or in moun- 

 tainous districts, provided there is an abundance of moisture, it pro- 

 duces the very best results. On sandy or light loamy ground it does 

 not do so well as Orchard, Tall Meadow Oat or Red Top Grass. If 

 grazed or cut too close, the stand of Timothy will be seriously injured. 

 Besides, it does not form as good grazing as many other grasses. The 

 yield of Hay is from, 1% to 3 tons per acre. Timothy requires good 

 land to make good crops. It does not root as deeply and is not con- 

 sidered as much of an improver as other grasses, consequently should 

 not be sown on land deficient in humus or vegetable matter nor on soils 

 of a light or sandy nature. Clovers grow well with Timothy and aid 

 it by supplying nitrogen. Timothy alone a peck (11 ibs.) to the acre; 

 with Cover 10 lbs. Price: "Gold" Brand, Lb. 10c. (Postpaid 15c.) Pk. 

 $1.00, V) bu. $1.90, bu. $3.60, 5 bu. lots and over at $3.50 per bu. 

 Prices fluctuate. We will quote prices at any time upon request. Bags 

 holding 2% bu. are e::itra at 35c. 



Hairy Vetch (Vicia Vilosa) 



Vicia Villosa succeeds and produces good crops on poor, sandy soils as 

 on good land ; grows to a height of 4 to 5 feet. It is perfectly hardy 

 throughout the United States, remaining green all winter ; should be sown 

 liberally from July to November with winter rye, oats, wheat or barley, 

 which serves as a support for the plants. It is the earliest crop for cut- 

 ting, being hardier and nearly a month earlier than Crimson Clover, and 

 a full crop can ba taken off the land in time for planting spring crops. 

 It is exceedingly nutritious, eaten with relish and may be fed with safety 

 to all kinds of stock. Crop short. 1 Lb., 25c. 10 Lbs., 22c. lb. 100 Lbs., 

 20c. lb. Bags included.
