193Jf SPRING SEED CATALOG 
We Bought Early 
Seeds have all ready advanced a lot. In many cases we 
can’t replace on today’s market at the prices we are 
offering these seeds to you. In general there’s a short 
supply of seed. The corn, wheat and cotton reduction 
program of the government will make an enormous de¬ 
mand for grass and clover seeds to cover these reduction 
acreages. Don’t wait for the jam that’s coming in demand 
for field seeds. We can save you money at our present 
rock bottom prices. 
Red Clover 
The middle west drouth of 1933 was awful hard on Red 
Clover. First the dry weather burned up the oats and, 
of course, there was no moisture left for young seedings 
so we are generally faced with the shortest supply of 
Red Clover acreage next year we have ever had. This 
lost acreage has to be made up besides all the normal 
requirements plus increased demand where the corn 
acreage is being reduced. 
Where is the seed coming from? Lots of people didn’t 
thresh their Red Clover seed this year as the yield was so 
light, others needed the second crop for pasture. 
There’s a short crop in Europe and for the first time 
in many years over one and one half million pounds of 
Red Clover has already left this country for England and 
France. That’s over 45 carloads. That’s a lot of seed. 
As this is written wholesale markets have already ad¬ 
vanced about $3.00 per bushel in the last ninety days, yet 
thousands of farmers who need Red Clover for February 
to April seedings are sitting idly by. Don’t wait any longer 
on Red Clover. Buy your needs now while we are selling 
purchases we contracted early.

Korean Clover 
Korean Clover is certainly proving itself as one of the most sensa¬ 
tional crops since Alfalfa came into its own. Never has any legume 
crop had such an increase in so short a time. Surely there can be 
but one answer for this, Korean Lespedeza gives results. 
Korean Clover is a soil builder the same as any other clover, better 
than some of them. It will grow on practically any kind of soil, 
sour land, washed, eroded and worn-out soil. It grows successfully 
where no other kind will catch. It makes a full crop of pasture, hay 
or seed the same year you plant it. It re-seeds each year. 
The last three or four years have thoroughly proven that Korean 
Clover is probably the most reliable and best adapted of all legumes 
for poor land in the Central and Southern States. It’s just what you 
need for summer pasture. Right through the summer months, when 
Blue grass and other grass pastures are all dried up and brown, 
Korean is at its best, nice and green and producing a real pasture. Or 
it produces a good heavy crop of fine stemmed leafy, high quality hay 
that cures easily. 
Best of all, the price of seed this year is down where you can af¬ 
ford to sow it. The price is cheap. You don’t need to use lime or 
fertilizer. And it requires little or no seed bed preparation. 
Sow Korean this year where your land is torn up by washing. Sow 
it on poor or thin soil to build it up. Sow it on those thin pastures 
and make them really pay good returns. But, remember to sow it 
early, the earlier the better, right on top of the ground. 
And, sow Korean Clover in all of your pasture mixtures, whether 
sowing a new seeding or thickening up a thin stand. It most always 
does best on a good solid, hard seed bed. Sow 7 to 10 pounds per 
acre in pastures and 12 to 15 pounds for hay or for a new seeding.

Sericea Lespedeza is the new perennial Lespedeza. Will grow on 
any soil no matter how poor, sour and worn out. We don’t know 
yet how winter hardy it’s going to prove in Iowa. Try out a pound. 
Harbin Lespedeza. a very new introduction by the government. It 
will move the Lespedeza belt 300 miles farther north. We grew the 
seed here at Shenandoah and it was dead ripe when Korean started 
to bloom, gave good results on our tests this year in South Dakota. 
One ounce 35c, one pound S3.00, postpaid. 
Permanent Hay and Pasture Mixture 
50% Clovers, 50% Grasses 
A great general purpose crop either for regular use or for your 
corn reduction acreage. It will make a big vigorous soil building 
growth this year; and will be fine to plow under or if you prefer, 
it will be right there for a big hay or pasture crop in 1935 and 
future years. 
We have a lot of types of soil on practically every farm. Some 
seeds do better on certain types of soil. For example, Alsike and 
Korean Clover will do better on wet, poor soil than Alfalfa or Red 
Clover, but on good well drained portions of the field the reverse 
is true. 
Again some crops like Kentucky Blue grass and Timothy are good 
early in the spring but poor growers in mid-summer. 
Field’s Permanent Hay and Pasture Mixture is proportioned to give 
you the best all season soil building hay and pasture crop at a very- 
reasonable price. Present prices can’t last. Order quick.
