White Clover. 



WHITE CZiOVEB. — This is the common 

 little running clover found in most good 

 pastures. Its chemical analysis sho\\"s it 

 to be richer in protein than almost any 

 other legume which we grow for forage. 

 It is, of course, too small to grow for hay. 

 but it is invaluable in all pastures. Sow 

 in Spring and Fall. 8 pounds to acre. 

 Yz lb., 50c.; 1 lb., 90c., postpaid; 10 lbs., 

 $8.00, not prepaid. Write for quantity 

 prices. 



manure. It costs less to seed per acre than 

 any other similar crop, and the results, 

 in putting th« much-needed nitrogen and 

 humus into the soil are considered superi- 

 or even to cow peas. Planted during Sep- 

 tember and October, and February and 

 March. Twenty pounds per acre. 60 lbs. 

 to bushel. Yz lb., 20c.; lb., 35c., postpaid; 

 10 lbs., $3.75; bu., $12.00, not prepaid. 



JAPAN CZiOVEB. — A legume. Southern 

 seed. Grows anywhere; is tenacious in 

 any soil; lasts always; well known now in 

 the South. Planted from December to 

 March one bushel of 25 pounds per acre. 

 Y2 lb., 30c.; lb., 50c., postpaid; 10 lbs., 

 $2.75; bu., $5.50, not prepaid. 



BOKHARA, OB SWEET CI.OVEB. (Mili- 

 lotus Alba.) — Bokhara is a relative of 

 Alfalfa and unlike same will make luxuri- 

 ant growth on soils rich in lime and of in- 

 sufficient depth for successful growing of 

 either Alfalfa or Red Clover. It is an im- 

 portant hay and pasture plant and if cut 

 while the plants are young, about at begin- 

 ning of flowering season, produces hay 

 equal to Alfalfa. Seeds may be sown at 

 the rate of 20 pounds to the acre from 

 September to December or February to 

 April, producing one cutting the first sea- 

 son, but furnishes three cuttings there- 

 after of from one ot two tons each. Roots 

 are large and deep, leaving the soil in good 

 condition, as they die and decay for follow- 

 ing crops at the end of the second year. 

 Hulled, weight 60 lbs. to bushel. 40c. per 

 lb., postpaid; 10 lbs,. $3.50; bu., $18.00, not 

 prepaid. 



AZiSIKE CZ.OVEB. — This plant ranks 

 nearly as valuable as the medium red 

 clover for ordinary soils, and in special 

 conditions is much better. The plants are 

 smaller and ordinarily it produces a some- 

 what lighter crop than the medium red 

 clover, but, as it is also much more closely 

 eaten by stock, there is less waste. The 

 quality of the hay is better. As the plant 

 is a perennial, while the medium red clover 

 is a biennial, it makes more of a perma- 

 nent meadow or pasture plant. It suc- 

 ceeds on impoverished soil or acid soil 

 better than the medium red clover and on 

 wet soil it is invaluable. It will not, of 

 course, grow in water, but will stand more 

 moisture than the other clovers. Sow in 

 Spring or Fall, 6 pounds per acre. Y2 1^.. 

 40c.; lb., 75c., postpaid; 10 lbs., $6.50, not 

 prepaid. 



Bed Clover. 



MEDIUM BED CLOVEB.— The one most 

 universally grown throughout the country. 

 On fertile soil and especially where hay 

 is desired, it has only one superior, and 

 that is Alfalfa. Sow in Spring and Fall, 

 12 pounds to acre. Y2 I'b., 30c.; lb., 50c., 

 postpaid: 10 lbs., $4.50; bu., $24.00, not 

 prepaid.

 tember to November and from February to
