Clover Seed 
Of all the crops grown on the farm Clover is 
the most important, not because of its market 
value and importance as a forage crop, but its 
great value as a fertilizer. Farmers should use 
this valuable seed freely as there are many profits 
derived from it. As a forage plant one of the 
different varieties is adapted to every section of 
the country, and everything considered there can 
be no doubt that the Clovers are the most valuable 
of all forage crops. 
By using good seed the grower will derive a 
real benefit, first, from the hay crop, and greatest 
of all, the upbuilding and maintenance of his land. 
The sowing of Clover is absolutely essential 
to proper rotation of crops and to keep up the 
fertility of the land. The progressive farmer will 
sow Clover seed liberally in order to keep up the 
productiveness for other crops. A good crop of 
Clover will restore fertility to land and put more 
humus into the land than most any other crop. 
We sell only the very highest grades obtain¬ 
able; highest in purity and germination. Why 
not grow a few more loads of hay from the same 
acreage? Sowing our GUARANTEED SEEDS 
will help you do it. We specialize in Clovers, 
and feel safe no one can offer better values, 
either as regards to quality or price. The most 
careful attention is given our Clover Seed, as it 
constitutes a large percentage of our entire Seed 
Business. 
SOIL. Clover makes its best growth on rich, 
fertile, well drained limestone soil, but if the 
seed is inoculated will flourish on most any soil 
where there is sufficient rainfall. Clover will 
grow and flourish in a soil that is low in nitro¬ 
gen as long as there is a sufficient supply of 
bacteria to start the plants until they have an 
opportunity to develop tubercles on the roots for 
the purpose of gathering nitrogen from the air 
and storing it in the soil. 
Domestic Brand 
Medium Red Clover 
“Medium Red Clover” also known as “June 
Clover” is by far the most important Clover in our 
country. Medium Clover is second to none as a 
soil strengthening' crop, adding fertility to the 
soil, making it possible to grow larger and better 
crops of corn and other grains. It grows about 
two feet high yielding two to four tons of hay 
per acre. This is also valuable for pasturing. The 
long roots penetrate deeply into the soil gathering 
nitrogen from the air and storing it in the soil in 
the form of nodules on the roots, thereby providing 
rich foods for crops, cereals, etc., which follow it. 
Quality of seed is very important. When sowing 
Clover seed be careful to sow nothing but pure, 
clean seed, which are plump and will germinate 
readily and produce hardy vigorous plants. Poor 
seed is the poorest kind of economy. Many farms 
and crops have been almost ruined by sowing low 
grade seeds containing noxious weeds. If you do 
not want weeds don’t sow them. Use our DO¬ 
MESTIC BRAND CLOVER and you need not worry 
about polluting your farm with noxious weeds. 
Don’t fail to get our samples and prices before 
placing your order, as you will find nothing better 
than our DOMESTIC BRAND CLOVER. If sown 
alone use six to eight quarts per acre. Where 
timothy has been seeded sow four quarts per acre.
