You know that all agricultural authorities univer¬ 
sally recommend the increased use of sweet clover on 
farms throughout the country. , .■ 
Most Productive Legume Crop Known 
There is no other-crop that gives such tremendous 
amounts of high protein pasture and ha^y over such a 
wide range of sqil, and climatic conditions.. It grows 
with., equal vigor hijd success in such widely scattered 
stateg;- as Iow^>, ,Nebraska,. JCansaSj.,-Missouri, Dakota, 
Minnesota, Kentucky, New- York a-nd. ni^ny others. 
Have you a field that is run down, thin, or in poor 
physical condition? You can build up soil and top 
soil with my Double Scarified Mayworth Quality Sweet 
Clover. 
Greatest Legume Pasture 
Sweet Clover will carry more cattle to the acre than 
any other legume crop. A good stand of my Sweet 
Clover will support two or more head of cattle for 
each acre of land. It is four or five times as produc¬ 
tive as blue grass. Sweet Clover starts early in the 
spring. Put your livestock on it as soon as it has a 
growth of five or six inches. Your livestock simply 
can’t keep ahead of it. It is better to graze Sweet 
Clover quite closely than it is to let it grow up big 
and coarse. It’s good for cattle, horses, sheep, hogs 
and every other kind of livestock. 
Method of Sowing 
Most people sow Sweet Clover early in the spring 
with oats, spring wheat, barley or flax or on winter 
wheat. Fifteen pounds per acre is ordinarily sown 
with a common broadcast seeder and dragged, har¬ 
rowed or rolled in. Along with the other legumes, 
Sweet Clover likes best a compact, fine seed bed. 
If you wish to sow unhulled seed on the winter 
frozen ground, sow 20 pounds per acre during the 
months of December, January or February. 
Unliulled White Blossom Sweet Clover 
Sow Sweet Clover Nature’s way during the winter 
right on the snow or frozen ground. The freezing and 
thawing prepares the seed for quick growth in the 
spring and covers the seed about the right depth. 
Extra Nice Seed 
My Unhulled seed is clean, top-quality throughout. 
The supply is limited so order early and sow early.

LOT "BARGAIN 
A real buy in Sweet Clover for those who 
purchase seeds on the basis of results rather 
than appearance. The seed is well recleaned, 
scarified, and the germination is guaranteed 
satisfactory. Not as nice looking as our best 
grade as the seed runs a little smaller and 
the color is not so uniform. It is tested and 
labeled under the rigid requirements of the 
Iowa Seed Law and is tested for 
satisfactory purity and germina- %l| 711 
tion. It’s a real bargain at this “ m 
low price. PER BU. 
MAYWORTH YELLOW 
Blossom Sweet Clover 
LOT "GOLD 
Many farmers prefer the Yellow Blossom 
Biennial Sweet Clover because of its finer 
stems and more leafy growth. Doesn’t grow 
as tall as the White Blossom but spreads more 
so you get just as much feed per acre. This 
is a very fine dependable lot of seed. I have 
only three cars to offer you at this price. 
When this lot is gone, it will prob- am 
ably be all we can secure as this 
is the best quality double scarified 1® AW 
seed. Special price, PER BU’.,

GRUNDY COUNTY 
Dworf White Sweet Clover 
Considered by many the best sweet clover 
for hay, pasture and soil building. Very sim¬ 
ilar to the Yellow Blossom except it branches 
even more and possibly carries more leaves. 
My buyers in the sweet clover producing dis¬ 
tricts this fall selected this fine lot of seed. In 
my opinion this is the best value, quality and 
price considered, that we can possibly offer. 
Big, plump, even, uniform sized berries, won¬ 
derfully colored and matured well. 
Practically every seed will grow 
as it is double scarified like the 
rest of our sweet clovers. Free 
from bad weeds, of course. PER
