FOR SOIL IMPROVEMENT—PASTURE—HAY 
Sow Hoffman’s SWEET CLOVER 
Improve any worn-out fields with little labor and 
expense. Plant Sweet Clover. The great soil im¬ 
prover. Will grow anywhere. A great soil enrich¬ 
ing crop. Splendid for green manure. Rich in 
nitrogen. Easy to plow because its roots are soft 
and tender. Sweet Clover, under favorable condi¬ 
tions, gives a strong growth, supplies a winter cover¬ 
ing and pasture in early spring. Although Sweet 
Clover will do well almost anywhere the following 
two things should be kept in mind: 
1. Sweet Clover needs lime. 
2. The seed should always be inoculated. 
Use the same amount of lime for Sweet Clover as 
you would use for Alfalfa. Sow about 20 pounds 
per acre. Cover the seed well. Our Sweet Clover 
has been scarified to quicken the growth. 
White Blossom Sweet 
Clover 
Plant this popular variety in the spring and you 
will get a fine growth of hay in the fall of the 
same year. This biennial White Blossom (Melilotus 
Alba) lives for two years, then dies. Planted either 
spring or fall of one year, it will live until the 
fall of the following year. Let it go to seed and 
it will reseed itself and last for years. Invaluable 
for soil improvement and for hay as well as pasture 
—as well as to inoculate soil for Alfalfa. Hardly 
ever suffers from Clover diseases. 
Yellow Blossom Sweet 
Clover 
Yellow flowering biennial Sweet Clover (Melilotus 
Officinalis). Grows 2^ to 3 feet the first year and 
4 to 5 feet the second year. Preferred by some be¬ 
cause of its finer stems. It makes a finer grade of 
hay or pasture. Stems nearly as fine as Alfalfa. 
Grundy County Sweet 
Clover 
An early dwarf strain of the biennial White Blossom 
Sweet Clover. Matures two weeks earlier. Has finer 
stems—makes a finer hay—more palatable feed— 
not as tall.
