THE MEYER SEED CO 
Plant of Alfalfa, or Lucerne 
Alfalfa, or Lucerne (Medicago sativa). Requires deep, rich, well- 
drained soil. Roots very deeply, the tap root descending often to a 
depth of 10 or 15 ft. in loose soil. It is, consequently, capable of 
resisting great droughts. It should be sown alone (about the same 
time as Oats are sown in this section) in thoroughly prepared, deep¬ 
ly plowed soil, at the rate of 20 to 25 lb3. to the acre. It is also 
successfully sown as late as August and up to the middle of Sep¬ 
tember. The crop should be cut when the plant is coming into 
bloom. In suitable soil it is perennial and several crops may be 
cut every year. Height 1 to 3 ft. We handle home as well as foreign 
grown Alfalfa. Lb. 40c. 
Grimm Alfalfa (Certified). Lb. 45c. 
Alsike, or Hybrid Clover (Trifolium hybridum). A perennial, 1 to

Japan Clover or Lespedeza. The original Lespedeza. Sow 20 lbs. 
to the acre on your poor land to bring it into condition to produce
