^mLSPEIiPHRRy 



CRIMSON OR SCARLET CLOVER 



When sown early cnoufih, Crimson Clover will make good winter 

 grazing for sheep and cattle, and being ready in spring before 

 pasturage, it may be cut and carried to the stabled stock. It is also 

 valuable for hay if cut before coming to full-bloom, cures rapidly 

 and is very nutritious, but its chief and best use is as a fertilizer, its 

 capacity for stooling and root formation being very great, and like 

 other plants of its character, gathers nitrogen from the air and 

 stores it in the plants and roots, thus becoming valuable food for 

 crops which follow. Per lb., postpaid, 30 cts. Write for leaflet on 

 Crimson Clover, also sample and price per bushel.

is carefully recleaned. We will be pleased to send samples by mail. 



Miracle Wheat (Bearded). A desirable variety, productive and 

 an excellent milling wheat. A remarkable feature is its enormous 

 stooling propensity. Single plants often contain as many as 

 20 to 25 stalks, each with large heads, well filled. The straw is 

 strong and stiff, and holds up well and grows about five feet tall. 

 Because of its hea\'y growth the plants of Miracle Wheat should 

 be allowed more room to grow than other varieties, and seed 

 should be planted in smaller quantity, using 1 to 1 J bushels to 

 an acre. Those who have planted Miracle Wheat have been well 

 pleased with results. Per lb., postpaid, 25 cts.; peck (15-lbs.), 85 

 cts.; bushel f60 lbs.), $3.00. 



Lancaster Fulcaster (Bearded). Does well on soils of average 

 fertility and especially suited for soils that are thin. It is of the 

 long berry type, grains dark red and hard. It stands up well 

 and makes a good sized head, which is filled with heavy grains.
