Alsike, or Hybrid Clover 
Alfalfa, or Lucerne (Medicago sativa). Requires deep, rich, well- 
drained soil. Roots very deeply, the tap root descending often to a 
depth of 10 or 15 ft. in loose soil. It is, consequently, capable of 
resisting great droughts. It should be sown alone (about the same 
time as Oats are sown in this section) in thoroughly prepared, deep¬ 
ly plowed soil, at the rate of 20 to 25 lbs. to the acre. It is also 
successfully sown as late as August and up to the middle of Sep¬ 
tember. The crop should be cut when the plant is coming into 
bloom. In suitable soil it is perennial and several crops may be 
cut every year. Height 1 to 3 ft. We handle home as well as foreign 
grown Alfalfa. Lb. 25c. 
Grimm Alfalfa (Certified). Lb. 35c. 
Alsike, or Hybrid Clover (Trifolium hybridum). A perennial, 1 to 
3 ft. high; grows well in our locality and can withstand severe cold. 
A good honey plant for bees. 15 lbs. to the acre. Lb. 30c. 
Japan Clover or Lespedeza. The original Lespedeza. Sow 20 lbs. 
to the acre on your poor land to bring it into condition to produce 
profitable crops. Once started it smothers broomsedge and other 
undesirable growths. 10 lbs. Japan Clover and 8 lbs. Herd’s Grass 
will give a hay crop that may be grazed till frost. Lb. 20c.

Legume, boasting of heavy yields on poor, acid soils. Large returns 
in seed and forage. Great improvement to soils. Resistance to 
droughts. Lb. 30c. 
Red Clover (Trifolium pratense). One of the most valuable farm 
crops for pasture, hay or for turning under for green manure. It

Crimson, or German Clover (Trifolium incarnatum). Erect an¬ 
nual, 1 to 2 ft. high, with bright scarlet flowers. It is largely grown 
for improving the soil by turning under. It is a valuable crop for 
pasturage or green manure. For hay it should be cut when in full 
bloom. Sow 20 lbs. to the acre. Lb. 15c.

Means Better Crops :: Better Soils :: Less Fertilizer Expense 
Stimugerm is a culture of bacteria especially selected and 
bred for maximum vitality and ability to form nodules and 
take nitrogen from the air. Stimugerm contains many mil¬ 
lions of active, hardy legume bacteria, guaranteed to work. 
You can obtain Stimugerm in either jelly or humus form. 
Seeds of all legumes—Clover, Alfalfa, Sweet Clovers, Soy 
Beans, Vetches, etc.—will yield far better returns if inoculated 
before planting and in addition leave in the soil heavy deposits 
of valuable nitrogen which benefits all succeeding crops. It 
is crop insurance at very low cost and the results will repay 
the small effort involved beyond your expectations. 
These scientifically bred cultures are far superior to the 
natural germs in the soil and therefore inoculation is preferable 
to uncertain and laborious soil transfer.
