Alfalfa Seed 
1128. Alfalfa Yields Splendidly Throughout the South, 
Yielding 4 to 6 Cuttings Per Year, Increasing Yield Each 
Successive Year. Experiment stations place the feeding value 
of Alfalfa hay at $20 per ton, as against Timothy hay at $12 
per ton. The acreage of Alfalfa is increasing very largely all 
over the Middle and Southern States; our farmers are fast be- 
ginning to realize what a valuable crop it is for this section. 
Alfalfa will succeed and do well on any good loamy, well- 
drained soil, but the land must be well and thoroughly pre- 
pared for the best results. A heavy application of lime is of 
decided benefit—2000 to 5000 Ibs. per acre. Alfalfa is usually 
sown broadcast at the rate of 20 to 30 lbs. to the acre, although 
some of our customers claim that thicker seedings give better 
crop resuits. March and April are the best months for seeding 
in the Spring, and the latter part of August and during Sep- 
tember the best in the Fall. Our Alfalfa seed is the highest 
grade, strong germinating seed of the best and cleanest quality 
it 1s possible to procure.

these grasses, but flowering a little later than Red Clover.

1130. Medium Red Clover. This is regarded as the most 
valuable of the Clover family and is largely used for pasturage 
and hay. Clover adds greatly to the fertility of the land on 
which it 1s grown. It does not exhaust the soil, but enriches it. 
It makes two crops each year. The first is usually cut when 
it is in blossom for hay. The last crop may be harvested for 
seed, cut for hay or plowed under to add fertility to the soil. 
When sown by itself, sow 10 to 12 lbs. to the acre, either in the 
Spring or Fall, or at the last working of corn. Price, lb. 42c.
