A fine field of Virginia Northern Neck Bed Clover. The most disease-resistant of all clovers. 
RED CLOVER ST^S ,: 5 
Red clover not only furnishes excellent pasturage and fine hay 
crops,, but improves the land and adds humus to the soil. On good 
land it will yield two cuttings a year. It is particularly well 
adapted for sowing with orchard grass and tall meadow oat grass, 
as it ripens at the same time, and sowing the three together will 
give larger yields of better quality hay than sowing either alone. 
A Good Mixture—15 pounds of orchard grass, 12 pounds of tall 
meadow oat grass and 8 pounds of clover 
will give excellent results, and if the land is 
to be pastured, the addition of 6 pounds of 
herds grass or red top will increase the 
pasturage and the second cutting of hay. 
American Grown Red Clover 
Grown in Michigan, Ohio, Illinois and Indiana 
Clover seeds grown in Michigan, Ohio, Illinois and Indiana are 
more disease-resistant than clover grown in many other parts of 
the country except Virginia. By mail postpaid, lb. 45c; 5 lbs. $1.75:

MAMMOTH, or SAPLING CLOVER 
Similar to red clover, the difference being that it grows larger 
and is later in maturing. It is considered superior as an improver 
on account of the extra growth. It is a good variety for thin soils 
or to seed with timothy, meadow fescue and herd's grass. In ap¬ 
pearance the seed is identical with red clover, and it is impossible 
to distinguish between them. We always obtain our supplies from 
reliable sources, and use every reasonable 
care to supply Mammoth or Sapling clover 
as ordered. Sow 12 to 15 pounds to the 
acre by itself; or with timothy sow 6 
pounds of clover and 8 pounds of timothy. 
, Another good mixture is had by adding 6 
pounds of herd’s grass or red top to the clover and timothy. By

Virginia Northern Neck Red Clover 
The only disease-resistant red clover and the best adapted 
for growing- in the South. 
The Northern Neck of Virginia is the only section that grows in 
commercial quantities disease-resistant red clover adapted to the 
South. This is an isolated peninsula, has no railroads, and for 
more than 300 years has been forced to save its own clover seeds. 
By natural selection, this strain has become highly resistant to 
ant.hracnose or mildew. It makes a large, vigorous growth and 
stands cold winters. 
In our field tests of red clovers from every producing section in 
America, the Virginia Northern Neck clover showed a 100 per cent 
stand the second year, and a heavy growth, 24 inches high. Red 
clover grown in the western part of Virginia, generally grown from 
Western seeds, had an 80 per cent stand 19 inches tall, which is on 
a parity with other mid-western grown seed. 
The origin of our Northern Neck Red Clover is verified by the 
United States Department of Agriculture.

ALSIKE CLOVER p s eTa 5 c^. 81bs 
Alsike clover has plenty of leaf, grows thicker, is finer stemmed, 
makes better hay and more and better grazing than red clover, 
and will grow on soils too acid, too wet or too deficient in lime to 
produce a paying crop of other clovers. Tt is hardier and will 
stand uncut without deteriorating the quality of the hay better 
than other clovers. It is adapted to a variety of soils, succeeding 
on light upland and loamy as well as on 
bottom lands. The hay also contains a 
higher per cent of digestible protein. Par¬ 
ticularly valuable for grazing, for it makes 
a thick undergrowth, greatly increasing 
the yield. If you have not succeeded in 
getting a stand of other clovers because your land is acid or moist, 
sow alsike. By mail postpaid, lb. 46c; 5 lbs. $1.90; 10 lbs. $3.65; 
25 lbs. $8.40; 50 lbs. $16.65.

per lb.; 100 lbs. and over 30c per lb. No charge for bags.
