Lee’s Dependable Grass and Clover Seed 
CLOVERS 
ALFALFA. The most valuable of all culti¬ 
vated forage crops and is an excellent combi¬ 
nation forage crop and soil builder. This 
wonderful plant has many uses, as there is 
nothing that makes better hay than alfalfa, 
and stock are extremely fond of it. As a pas¬ 
ture builder it cannot be surpassed. It de¬ 
velops a strong root system, which increases 
the humus content and opens up the soil, thus 
improving the soil by adding large quantities 
of nitrogen from the air. Alfalfa can be cut 
at any time from start of bloom stage to the 
time the plants are in full bloom. Seed 
should be sown broadcast at the rate of 20 
pounds to the acre. It can be sown in either 
the fall or spring. 
RED CLOVER (Medium Red). Adapted to 
limestone soils. Fine for pasturage in com¬ 
bination with other clovers and grasses. Sow 
at the rate of 7 to 10 ponnds per acre. 
SWEET CLOVER (White Blossom). A va¬ 
riety of clover, while young resembles alfalfa, 
grows to a height of 4 to 6 feet. As a land- 
builder has few equals. Adds humus and 
Nitrogen to the soil when plowed under. Val¬ 
uable for pasture and forage. Sow in fall or 
spring at the rate of 15 pounds per acre. 
ALSIKE. Adapted to damp, moist, loamy 
soils. In growth and habit resembles alfalfa. 
Valuable for either hay or pasture and equal 
to Red Clover in food value. Frequently 
sown with Red Top and Timothy, producing 
a very fine quality of hay. Sow at the rate of 
6 pounds per acre. In mixture: Alsike 4 
pounds. Red Top 6 pounds, Timothy 5 pounds. 
BURR CLOVER. We have two kinds, South¬ 
ern Spotted and California. Stands of Cali¬ 
fornia Bnrr are easier to obtain the first year 
than of Southern Burr. Moreover, the Cali¬ 
fornia grows off earlier and withstands dry 
weather better. Stock prefers this kind. 
Both clovers are principally for soil-building 
and grazing and works exceedingly well with 
Bermuda Grass pastures. Sow in fall, prefer¬ 
ably at the rate of 30 to 50 pounds of South¬ 
ern seed, 12 to 16 pounds of California seed. 
LESPEDEZA—KOREAN. The most popular 
and widely adapted variety of all the Lespe- 
dezas. The earliest of the annual Lespede- 
zas, therefore giving the earliest grazing of 
any other variety. The leaves are larger than 
common Lespedeza and more rounded. Be¬ 
gins flowering in July, ripens in September. 
Sow 25 pounds per acre broadcast, alone or 
on grain crops. Do not cover. 
LESPEDEZA-KOBE (Annual). In sections 
where the seasons are longer it makes a con¬ 
siderably larger growth than Korean, of 
spreading growth, but stands up well when 
the stand is thick. Usually grows 2 to 2 V 2 
feet tall. Sow 25 pounds per acre, broadcast, 
alone or on grain crops. 
LESPEDEZA-SERICEA. A perennial legume 
plant, sending up new shoots after cutting or 
grazing, from the crown or roots, like alfalfa. 
Has an enormous root system, penetrating 
often four feet into the soil with a perfect 
mat of smaller roots. Plant only hulled and.i 
scarified seed in March, April or May after 
danger of frost is past. For a seed crop sow 
2 pounds scarified seed per acre in 214 -foot, 
rows. For hay sow about 10 pounds per acre.. 
WHITE DUTCH CLOVER. Creeping 
in habit, is largely used on lawns and in pas¬ 
ture mixture. Much relished by stock, and 
high in protein. Sow at the rate of 3 to 5 
pounds per acre; 1 to 2 pounds in mixtures. 
HOP CLOVER (Yellow Blossom.) An an¬ 
nual. Grows about 6 to 8 inches high. Grow¬ 
ing season from early spring to mid-summer. 
Especially valuable when sown very early 
with Japan Clover on Bermuda sod or with 
any grasses for pasture. Similar to Lespe¬ 
deza, but more upright, and has a yellow blos¬ 
som. Very early and fast-growing. Hop Clo¬ 
ver is familiar to many, as it grows wild over 
a good portion of the South. The demand for 
this seed is increasing very rapidly. 
Sow 5 to 7 pounds alone or 2 pounds in mix¬ 
ture. 
Cyclone Seed Sower 
Will sow many acres 
per hour, any amount 
per acre. Saves labor 
and seed. Every 
planter should have one. 
Each, $2.50, postpaid.
