GRUNDY COUNTY WHITE SWEET CLOVER 
A strain of white blossom, which is two to three weeks earlier than the common white- 
sweet, and not quite as rank a grower. Developed in Grundy County. Illinois, hence its name. 
Although it grows to a good height and makes an elegant hay crop, it is not as tall as the 
common, and is much more easily handled. It is finer and more leafy, branching thickly about 
a foot above the ground and making better quality hay, and it yields more seed. Yields of 
9 to 15 bu. of seed per acre have been reported. As it is three weeks earlier, the seed ripens 
nicely ahead of any of the weeds that may be ih one’s land. 15 lbs. per acre. Bags extra. 
See above. Minnesota grown.

WHITE SWEET 
CLOVER 
Unexcelled Pasture for Hogs and Cattle 
Minnesota Grown Seed. Very Hardy. 
White Sweet Clover is a biennial legumino'us plant of tall, shrub¬ 
like growth, somewhat like a coarse alfalfa growing 8 to 10 feet 
high. Its blossoms which rarely appear until the second year, are 
white and give a strong smell of honey, quite perceptible some dis¬ 
tance away. If not allowed to reseed, it will die out the second 
year. 
Culture; Sweet Clover is best sown in the spring with one 
bushel of extra early oats or barley per acre as a nurse crop. 
Can also be sown successively in June or July without a nurse 
crop, or in corn at the last cultivation. Use 15 lbs. seed per acre. 
Soil: Sweet Clover thrives on the poorest, sandy soil and on 
dry hill sides, where no other clover will grow. 
As a Pasture Plant White Sweet Clover is most valuable. It is 
the first forage plant in Spring that affords green food to animals 
and the last one that is killed 
by frost. Its grazing capacity 
is one beast per acre. It grows 
very rapidly, and as soon as it is 
5 to 6 inches tall, the cattle 
should be turned on, as tramping 
the ground suits it and if al¬ 
lowed to grow very tall, it will get hard and woody; if kept eaten 
down not very close to the ground the plants will constantly throw 
forth fresh growth. 
Cattle not accustomed to it do not always eat it readily at first 
but soon acquire a taste for it and then eat it greedily. 
Hay—White Sweet Clover should be cut the first season when 
it shows the maximum growth in Pall. The second year it is cut 
before it comes, into full bloom; it will make fine hay for all 
stock; in quality it is second to none and has the same feeding value as alfalfa. The hay 
contains 14.5% crude protein. Bags extra; y 2 bu. size at 15c; bu. size, 20c; 2Vfe bu. new,

YELLOW SWEET CLOVER 
Highly desirable because of its earliness, being about two weeks earlier than the White 
Sweet Clover. It is a biennial, just like the White Sweet, but it does not grow quite as tall. 
However, it produces a high quality hay and lots of it, it is a wonderful soil builder, makes 
a fine bee plant, and in addition it is better for pasture as it stays green longer. 15 lbs. 
per acre. Bags extra. Minnesota grown.

DWARF WHITE 
DUTCH CLOVER 
A low, close-growing clover;

and pastures. Should be on every 
farm. A great bee plant. Sow 12 
to 14 lbs. per acre. 4249—

MAMMOTH RED OR SAPLING CLOVER 
This is the clover to sow upon thin, sandy ground, and poor soil that is too low 
and heavy for Red Clover. Seldom freezes out. Mammoth Red Clover is quite dis¬ 
tinct from Medium, being larger, of coarser and more robust growth, and two to three 
weeks later. On rich, loamy soils it attains an immense growth, yielding much more 
bulk than medium clover, but makes only one crop, and pasture after that. It is 
especially used by farmers for a permanent hog pasture. Sow 15 lbs. per acre- 
Wisconsin and Minnesota grown seed. Bags extra, y 2 bu. size, 15c; bu. size, 20c; new 
150s at 35c; used at 25c.
