SWEET CLOVER 
Sweet Clover is a crop that is hardy; defies wet and 
drouth; never winter kills, and will grow on land that will 
not produce Alfalfa. Many wet, waxy soils are being farmed 
unprofitably by other crops that would produce a large 
crop of Sweet Clover, and furthermore. Sweet Clover will 
turn that poor land into land that will, within four or 
five years, be nearly 100 per cent better for any other 
crop that the farmer wants to put there. 
Sweet Clover has long, deep roots that permit water and 
air to penetrate to the lower levels of the soil and thus 
greatly aids the mechanical condition of the soil. As Sweet 
Clover is a legume it increases the nitrogen content of 
the soil. Wheat, Corn or Alfalfa grown on a field fol¬ 
lowing Sweet Clover are greatly improved. Yields of 10, 
15 and 25 per cent increase are not at all uncommon. 
Sow in the spring. It takes about twenty pounds of 
hulled seed to the acre. 25c per pound, postpaid. Write 
for prices in quantities.

READ THIS! 
It must be made emphatic that all clovers far outclass the non-legume crops for building the soil. The qualities mak¬ 
ing clovers useful in this respect are their extensive root system and their power to gather nitrogen from the air. Ex¬ 
periments show that 30 to 50 per cent of the fertilizing value of a clover crop is in the roots and stubble, which adds 
nitrogen and humus to the soil. A good crop of clover will add to the soil in a single season 200 pounds of nitrogen 
to the acre. Since the nitrogen is taken from the air, it represents a profit in the form of fertilizer for the land. 
SOY BEANS 
Soy Beans are very erect, growing with from one to six stems or 
more, branching out from the roots, and reaching a height of 1^ to 
3 y 2 feet; seldom falling down, except in very rich, loose soil. Soy 
Beans are a remarkable drouth-resister, and will do comparatively well 
on thin land; however, they respond very readily to moisture and rich 
land. Planting should not be done until the weather is warm and after 
the corn planting. 
LAREDO SOY BEANS—The seed is very small, flat in shape and 
black in color. As a soil builder it is unequaled. The quality of hay in 
feeding value is fully equal to Alfalfa. On reasonably fair land it will 
produce from 15 to 20 bushels of seed per acre and 2 to 3 tons of hay. 
Price per pound, postpaid, 25c. Write for quantity prices. 
VIRGINIA—About 20 days earlier than the Mam Yellow or Laredo. 
The vines make a fine growth, are filled with pods, stand about 3 feet 
high, are easy to cut and easy to cure. The best Soy Bean for Okla¬ 
homa and recommended by Extension Department and County Agents. 
Lb. 20c; pk. $1.50, postpaid. Write for bushel prices for shipment by 
freight or express.

MUNG BEANS 
Mung Beans bid fair to outrival anything yet discovered as a hay, 
forage and soil improving crop. Mung Beans are drouth resistant and 
have made wonderful crops of hay and forage where cow peas and soy 
beans have been killed off completely by the blistering and withering 
heat of an extended summer’s drouth. 
Mung Beans mature about fifteen days earlier than Soy Beans and 
Cow Peas and invariably have produced larger tonnage of hay and 
forage as well as large production of beans. Grows 4 to 6 feet tall and 
is one of the finest soil improvers discovered. 2 lbs. of Mung Beans 
will produce about 2 tons of cured hay. Requires about 4 lbs. per 
acre. Plant in rows about 3 ^ feet apart and 2 to 4 inches apart in 
the rows. Trial packet, 10c; lb. 25c; 5 lbs. $1.00, postpaid. Larger 
quantities, write for prices.
