Poor Land Is Unprofitable. Sweet Clover Builds It Up Quickly

Domestic Northern Grown 
More land than ever is going to be sown to clovers 
and grass this year. Sweet Clover is a great favorite 
because it excels all in soil building and is the 
cheapest of all to buy. Seed supplies are not large. 
Already market advances show the tremendous de¬ 
mand for this crop. We bought large supplies i 
early. As long as they last you can buy at our ij 
money saving prices. All seed has been thor- /[ 
oughly recleaned and scarified. It goes further 1 
and is the cheapest seed you can buy. We guar- I 
antee to satisfy you and save you money. Take I 
advantage of our low prices and sow the most I 
popular clover of the year. . j 
Wr Make Your Ground Easier to Work 
WF We know that many of our customers, because of conditions, 
Wf have been compelled to neglect proper rotations. The humus 
W or decayed vegetables matter in the soil has run down. Such 
f ground does not warm up so quickly in the spring. It stays wet 
longer and then dries up harder. It does not plow so easily and 
you have to get on it just at a certain time or you have trouble. The 
soil washes faster and gullies begin to form. 
When you grow Sweet Clover and plow under a good green growth 
you can correct this condition quickly and secure again that mellow, 
easily worked ground that produces the most profitable crops. 
Increases Production 
the soil 
■■■■ . . . Besides improving the condition 
> Sweet Clover adds a lot of nitrogen which it 
takes from the air. If you use Commercial fer- 
tilizer you know that nitrogen is the most ex- 
pensive food element to buy. Sweet Clover gives 
you this nitrogen at practically no cost. Corn 
after Sweet Clover generally shows an increase 
of 25 bushels per acre. 
? illylill It is not necessary to wait two years to get 
the benefits of this clover. Sow it in the spring. 
Pasture it or take a hay crop in the fall. Plow 
it under next spring and plant to corn the same 
year. It accomplishes wonders in a short time. 
Greatest of Pasture Crops 
You can depend on Sweet Clover taking care of at least twice 
as much stock per acre as your ordinary pastures. In many 
cases it will handle four times as much as native pastures. 
Even after you figure you have it stocked as heavily as it will 
stand you’ll find it could handle still more and you may want 
to clip it to keep it from getting too big and coarse. If 
V. you clip it set the sickle bar high. 
It grows so fast, it will amaze you. The feeding 
value, too, is exceptionally high. It is very rich in 
protein which is so expensive when you buy it in 
commercial feeds. It’s good for livestock of all 
kinds. They thrive on it. Many use no other

SWEET CLOVER 
Nature’s Way of Seeding 
This is a beautiful bargain in 
seed in the same form as it falls 
from the plant in the fall. It is 
one of the surest and best ways of 
getting a stand. This should be 
sown during the early winter. The 
seed then becomes imbedded in the 
soil. The freezing and thawing 
prepare the seed for quick germina¬ 
tion in the spring. Unhulled is not 
recommended for late spring seed¬ 
ing as it is slower in 
germinating. A good time ^ 
to sow is January, Feb- 
ruary or first part of 
March, right on the snow \ 
or frozen ground. 
Extra Nice Seed y|| 
Much unhulled seed that 
is offered is poorly cleaned 
and contains dirt and sticks. 
Our unhulled seed is clean fine 
quality throughout. It is a fine 
Star bargain. Supply of unhulled 
seed limited so order early and I 
sow early. Can supply either 
white or yellow blossom.

Gentlemen: Enclosed find another order for 
clover seed. This is my third year ordering 
clover from you. Am more than pleased with the 
last two clover seedings, both in price and qual¬ 
ity. I had the only good piece of Sweet Clover 
seed in this neighborhood last summer. 
Yours truly, (Signed) Harvey M. Bode. 
Gentlemen: I bought Sweet Clover from you 
last spiing, and sowed it on a stock field, on 
very steep ground sloping to the west. 1 have 
a fine stand, pastured it through the dry months 
and it is now over knee high. I am well pleased 
with the Red Tag Grimm Alfalfa seed bought 
from you last spiing. (Signed) J. Raluh Meyer.
