ALSIKE, OR HYBRID CLOVER (Trifolium 
hybridum). A perennial, 1 to 3 feet high, suc- 
ceeding best in cold and stiff soils, and in 
marshy lands which are too wet for other 
species. It grows well in the far north and in 
high altitudes, and can withstand severe cold.

acre. Lb., 25c; 10 lbs., $2.25.

pasture. Lb., 25c; 10 lbs., $2.25. 
CRIMSON, OR SCARLET CLOVER (Tri- 
folium incarnatum). Erect annual, 1 to 2 feet 
high, with bright scarlet flowers. It is a native 
of Southern Europe and is now largely grown 
in our Southern states for improving the soil 
by turning under. It will not stand severe 
winter weather. It makes a very valuable crop 
for pasture or green manure. For hay it should 
be cut when in full bloom. Sow 20 lbs. to the 
acre. Lb., 25c; 10 lbs., $1.50. 
RED CLOVER, MEDIUM (Trifolium pra- 
tense). One of the most valuable farm crops 
of the Western states for pasture, soiling, hay 
or turning under for green manure. It re- 
quires a deep, rich soil, and yields two hay 
crops in the season. In this section, sow in the 
fall or spring at the rate of 15 lbs. to the acre. 
Lb., 25c; 10 lbs., $2.25. 
MAMMOTH RED CLOVER. Grows larger 
and lasts longer than the medium red. Habits 
are the same as the red. Lb., 25c; 10 lbs., 
$2.25. 
WHITE CLOVER (Trifolium repens). Some 
white clover is usually included in lawn grass 
mixtures. It makes an excellent turf that 
stands constant tramping. It is of dwarf habit. 
It spreads rapidly, and is very hardy. It is 
valuable in permanent pastures, its foliage be- 
ing sweet and nutritious. Sow in the spring. 
In mixtures, 1 to 2 lbs.; if alone, 8 or 10 lbs. to 
the acre. Lb., 60c; 10 lbs., $5.50. 
A WORD TO THE WISE: When you purchase clover seeds, buy from a house which assures 
you that the seeds are free from noxious weed seeds. There is a big difference in price be- 
tween a seed which tests 95% pure and one which tests 99% pure, for there will be a big differ- 
ence in the crop of weeds you get, perhaps not so much the first year, but figure the second and 
third years. Insist on the best and we have it. Samples for testing furnished free. Ask for 
them. 
ALFALFA SEED 
injurious weeds. 
AMERICAN GROWN ALFALFA. Experi- 
mental stations and other authorities on Alfalfa 
agree as to the benefit of planting alfalfa seed 
grown in the northern sections of the United 
States. This brand of ours is grown in north- 
ern Montana and the seeds are exceptionally 
large and of high germination, and our experi- 
ence for several seasons has demonstrated the 
superiority of this seed under the most adverse 
climatic conditions throughout the Northwest. 
Lb., 25c; 100 lbs., $22.50. 
ALFALFA 
TURKESTAN, OR DRY-LAND ALFALFA. 
We make direct importations of this seed and 
tests. Free from dodder and other 
also literature on inoculation with Farmogerm. 
we can recommend it for situations where 
water is not abundant. We suggest that it be- 
seeded a little heavier than the ordinary type, 
as it is inclined to become coarse and woody; 
and thick sowing will produce finer plants. We 
can supply this in original package, or in 
smaller quantities. Lb., 25c; 10 lbs., $2.00.
