695 Medium Red or June Clover 
This is the most valuable clover in general use. Splendid for hay, 
pastures, soiling or plowing under. Especially desirable for dairy 
cows on account of its high percentage of 
nitrogenous elements. It is the standard 
everywhere for hay and pasture. Two cut¬ 
tings may be made in a season. Northern 
Illinois grown Medium Red or June clover 
has become widely known for its purity, 
strong vitality, vigorous growth and stool- 
ing qualities. The best is the 
cheapest when it comes to clover 
seed. We handle only one grade, 
«The Very Best Obtainable.” % lb., 23 cts.; 
lb., 40 cts.; 3 lbs., $1.15, postpaid. 
694 Mammoth Red or Sapling 
Mammoth Red Clover is quite distinct from 
Medium, being larger, of coarser and more 
robust growth, and two to three weeks later. 
On rich, loamy soils it attains an immense 
growth, yielding much more bulk than me¬ 
dium clover, but makes only one crop, and 
pasture after that. It grows well on land 
too poor and on soil too low for Medium Red, 
and is, therefore, largely used to restore fer¬ 
tility to worn-out soil. Vs lb., 22 cts.; lb., 40 
cts.; 3 lbs., $1.15, postpaid. 
695 Medium Red Clover 
692 Alsike, or Swedish Clover 
Alsike seems to be especially adapted for the Northern States; it is a peren¬ 
nial clover and lives longer than Medium Red; it is also more hardy; in fact, 
it is the hardiest of all clovers; it does not heave out of the ground in Winter 
and the severest cold does not injure it and it resists the extremes of drought 
and wet. It is the only clover that will thrive on moist soil, but it will also 
grow fairly well in stiff clays. It is mostly grown in bottom lands and quite 
often mixed with Timothy; these varieties seem to be well adapted for this 
soil and ripen at the same time. Vs lb., 23 cts.; lb., 42 cts.; 3 lbs., $1.20, postpaid. 
WINTER VETCH 
696 White Dutch Clover 
A low, close-growing Clover; round, white heads; very fragrant; 
best adapted to moist soils,’but does well on dry land; excellent as 
an addition to mixtures for permanent meadows and pastures. For 
lawns it is also splendidly adapted; indeed, no lawn is considered 
“quite right” unless it contains a good sprinkling of this sweet, 
pure, white-blooming, low growing “soft as velvet,” hardy White 
Dutch Clover. Vz lb., 32 cts.; lb., 60 cts.; 3 lbs., $1.74, postpaid.
