An annual variety in common use in Italy and southern France for feeding green. Also grown largely in this 
country in Virginia, where it is called "German Clover," and we think would do well in our western slates. Two 
or four weeks earlier than the Red Glover and for that reason is more desirable. Immense yielder of fodder. 
Commences to grow at once after cutting, and continues to do so until frost. Height iVz feel; roots nearly 
black; blossoms long and of deep carmine color. Makes good hay.

without irrigation advantages. Shorler-lived plani than Alfalfa, but will last from 8 to 10 years, according to 
soil, by Judicious top dressing of manure. It is excellent for cows, increasing flow and quality of milk. Would 
advise early and heavy seeding. Knllow wilh roller. Sow seed 2 inches deep, and from 30 to 40 lbs. per acre

As Sweet Clover can be grown under conditions wliieh are unfavorable to most forage or grazing crops, it is 
destined to become quite popular in our non-irrigated pasture lands. This fact has caused our Agricultural 
Colleges to recommend it very highly. There have been more inquiries for Sweel Clover Seed in the past few 
weeks than in all our years in business in Montana.

protein. 3. Will not bloat caKle or sheep. 4. Equal to alfalfa for pasture. 5. Is a great milk producer. 6. 
Furnishes early spring pasture. 7. Contains more protein than red clover. 8. Fits well in the crop rotation. 
9. Is a great soil enriching crop. 10. Better (ban any of the common clovers as a green manure crop. 11. Is 
a valuable plant for honey bees. 12. Prepares the soil for alfalfa. 13. Roots are soft and give no trouble in 
plowing. 14. Roots being tender, become inoculated more readily than alfalfa. 15. Never damages cultivated 
crops. 16. Its roots decay rapidly, adding much nitrogen and humus to the soil. 17. Grows and will produce 
a crop in all parts of the United States. 18. Seeds ireely in both humid and dry sections. 19. Sweet clover 
prevents erosion. 20. Will grow under conditions where clover and alfalfa fail: (a) on low, wet, alkali and 
acid soils; (b) on hard, compact soils; (c) on poor soil, especially where there is lime. 
DISADV.'WT.AGES— 1. If neglected and allowed to grow loo large, stems become hard and bitter and leaves fall off.

TIMOTHY 
TIMOTHY— ("Peerless".) I,b. (Poslpaid) 20c; By Express or Freight at Purchaser's Expense, Lb. 15c; 25 Lbs. $2.00; 
100 Lbs ^ $7.00 
As a crop lor hay, Timothy is probably un.surpassed by any other grass. It is greatly relished by all kinds ol 
stock, especially horses. It yields more nutritive matter than any other grass or forage plant. It is not suited 
for a permanent pasture, as it will, in the course oi a few years, run out. It is, however, well adapted to early 
spring grazing, as it starts up quickly in the spring, and in favorable weather can be pastured in the autum.. 
as well. The largest crops of hay are raised on rich land. It is not suited for light, sandy soil so well as some 
other grasses. The most important point in the growing of Timothy is the selection of good seed. Poor seed, 
besides containing weed seed, will not grow. That which does germinate is weak and produces few stalks and 
seed heads. II should not lake an intelligent farmer long to figure the wisdom of investing his time and money 
in reliable sr( d, and that means Peerless brand. Only ten pounds of this grade required to the acre when 
sown alone. 
TIMOTHY— (Placer Grade.) Lb. (Postpaid) 20c; By Expresi. or Freight at Purchaser's Expense, Lb. 15c; 25 Lbs. $2.0u 
100 Lbs $6.50 
This grade, like the above, is the plump native grown seed, unequaled by the slocks of most eastern firms. 
If you use large lots, write for special price, staling quantity you expect to use. 
TIMOTHY— (Al.sike Clover and Timothy Mixed.) Lb. (Poslpaid) 25c; By Express or Freight at Purchaser's Expense, Lb. 
20c; 25 Lbs. $3.50; 100 Lbs $12.on 
Where Alsike Clover and Timothy are grown logtther, and the seed is saved therefrom, it is impossible in 
cleaning to make a complete separation of the two. On this account we purchase the seed for less money and 
we can sell it for less money than would be the case if a perfect separation could be made. Those desiring to 
sow Alsike and Timothy together can save considerable money by buying the seed of these two varieties 
together as originally harvested. This makes a splendid mixture for hay or pasture, wilh just enough Alsike 
Clover to make splendid hay for horses or dairy cows. Sow about 8 to 10 lbs. to acre.
