remarkably palatable and the feeding value has been scientifically estimated to be 
worth nearly twice that of the very best Timothy. Droughts which would either 
destroy or quite stop the growth of ordinary plants have no effect upon Alfalfa, 
as its roots penetrate to astonishing depths in search of moisture, and the effect 
upon the land is highly beneficial. Alfalfa can be sown in either fall or spring. 
The cleaner the ground, the better the stand will be, as young Alfalfa is so slender 
and delicate that it is easily smothered by weeds. Sow on deep, well drained, good 
loamy land. Alfalfa will not grow on acid soils, and to correct 
this condition spread 1 to 1% tons of finely ground lime to 
the acre after plowing, and a few weeks before sowing. Cut¬ 
ting should be done always as blooming begins. Bu. 60 lbs.

Alcjlrp (Trifolium Hybridum)—A very hardy variety and will withstand ex- 
mamc tremes of heat, drought and cold better than any other clover. Owing 
to its tendency of lying down on the ground and its somewhat bitter taste, it should 
always be sown in mixture with other clovers and grasses. Does well on soil which is 
too acid or moist for other clovers. Bu. 60 lbs. Sow 12 lbs. to the acre. Write for prices. 
PAbliova Cwoat (Melilotus Alba)—This biennial Clover is adapted to 
DOhndrd, Uf ^wctt almost any kind of soil, grows from 3 to 6 feet high, 
and on rich soil can be cut three times.

Rlirr (Medicago Moculata.)—In the 
AJUA1 South for winter and early 
spring pasturage, this is most valuable. 
It grows rapidly, and is liked by all 
stock. In the far south, when sown with 
Bermuda Grass, the two make a splendid 
all-the-year-round pasturage. It reseeds 
itself, and improves in growth each suc¬ 
ceeding year. Bushel cleaned, 60 lbs.

rrimcnn (Tryfolium Incarnatum.) 
^rim&UIl Thia va i uab ie variety 
grows from 1% to 3 feet high, and has 
long cone-shaped dark red blossoms. 
The stem is smaller than that of Red 
Clover and is apt to fall over unless 
supported by rye or some stronger plant. 
Sowing is begun during the last of July 
and continues until the last of October. 
Farther South it can be sown later. A 
common practice is to sow the seeds in

furrows of corn and cotton fields at the 
time of the last cultivation. Prepare 
the land some time previous to sowing 
and wait for a rain, and as soon as the 
land is dry enough, break the crust with 
a light harrow, sow the seeds, and cover 
lightly. The seed always make a much 
better start in land which has been 
worked shortly before and needs nothing 
more than the harrow. The seed should 
not be covered deeply, and in dry weather 
rolling is very helpful. For winter pas¬ 
turage there is nothing better than a 
mixture of Rye and Crimson Clover. 
The plant is an annual, and re-sowing 
every year is nec¬ 
essary. Bu. 60 lbs.

Carpet Grass for pastures. Bu. 26 lbs. Sow 26 lbs. to the acre. Write for prices. 
Korean (Lespedeza.) This variety is particularly alapted for high altitudes 
u * where ordinary Japan Clover will not reseed. It is also earlier, grows 
more rapidly, and has larger foliage. Bu. 26 lbs. Sow 25 lbs. to the acre. Write

mediums for improving wornout lands. Its enormous root development greatly 
loosens and ventilates the earth and the turning under of the entire plant is very 
beneficial on account of the humus obtained. Red Clover on good land will yield 
two cuttings a year, and should be cut for hay when in full bloom. Bu. 60 lbs. Sow 
15 lbs. to the acre. Write for prices.
