WHITE FLOWERED SWEET CLOVER 
(Melilotus Alba) 
Plant Sweet Clover and Utilize the Waste Places 
Every farm has some patches of land which are too poor to grow Alfalfa, Corn, Wheat or other crops. 
Sow Sweet Clover on these patches and you will not only get a good crop of hay or pasture but will also 
improve the soil so that in a short time it will be good enough for other crops. 
Sweet Clover had been considered a weed for a great many years but now it has found its place in 
agriculture and has become a very valuable crop. Its most valuable feature is its ability to grow and 
thrive on the poorest and most barren soil. You see it growing on rocky hillsides, along the roads, and 
in other places where the conditions are most unfavorable. 
It makes good hay and good pasture, although cattle do not always take to it at first. It will stand 
a great deal of drought and also will grow in moist soils. 
It has been somewhat difficult to get a good stand of Sweet Clover. This difficulty can be overcome 
by sowing the seed on a thoroughly compacted seed bed with just enough loose soil to cover the seed, and 
by sowing scarified seed. Sweet Clover seed has a very hard seed coat and unless the seed is scarified 
much of it will lay in the ground a very long time before sprouting. 
It can be sown either in the spring or in the fall and it takes about twenty pounds of hulled seed to 
the acre. Price , Lb. 30c 
BIENNIAL YELLOW BLOSSOM SWEET CLOVER 
The Yellow Blossom is preferred by many growers because it is somewhat earlier, more leafy and 
has finer stems. The seed is a little smaller and therefore not quite so much is needed per acre. In buying 
Yellow Blossom be sure that you get the Biennial Yellow as there is also an Annual Yellow which is worth- 
less. Price . Lb. 30o 
Inoculate Sweet Clover with Nitragin.
