Every Farmer Should Have Ten Acres of Alfalfa for Every 160. 
Red Clover 
For many years red clover and alfalfa have been two items which we have specialized in. We have some of the best 
machinery made for cleaning- clovers and alfalfa and are proud of the quality we put out. 
Conditions in red clover seed crop are just the reverse from last year. Then there was practically no Illinois red clover, 
whereas the government this year makes the yield of red clover seed in Illinois alone 300.000 bushels. Indiana and Ohio 
both had a good crop, Idaho also had a big crop this year but they have had a lot of rain and snow this fall which dam¬ 
aged it some and delayed threshing considerably. Northern Illinois, Iowa, Northern Missouri, some of the other best con¬ 
suming sections, produced but little or no clover this year. 
We bought thousands of bushels of good homegrown clover seed early and can give you some mighty fine, bright, pure 
seed at much less than half what you had to pay for it last year. The Illinois crop is unusually pure this year. Much of 
it cleaning up to 99.50 and 99.75 pure. 
We have a buckhorn machine which removes all buckhorn from the clover. This machine also removes almost every other 
weed seed but dock and dodder, and it will remove most of this. We also have a dock and dodder mill which will remove 
these two noxious weeds. We do not intend to buy red clover with dodder in it. It is very hard to detect until one gets to 
cleaning it, and if we find it has dodder in it, we are prepared to take it out. 
Mammoth Clover 
This year the Mammoth Red Clover seed crop was like the Medium Red—a big crop of high-grade seed. All the Mam¬ 
moth we are offering this year is Illinois grown. While Mammoth Clover usually sells for from 60c to $1 per bushel more 
than Medium Red, we offer you both at the same price. 
Where a clover is going to be used as a fertilizer, Mammoth is much better, making a heavier top growth and also a 
much heavier root growth. It is often easier to get a stand of Mammoth Clover than the Medium Red. Mammoth, as a 
rule, does better on thin, acid or sandy soils than the Medium Red Clover but, of course, will do much better on rich soil 
containing plenty of lime. Mammoth like Medium Red should be inoculated for best results. Use Kelly’s Jelly Inoculator. 
Alsike Clover 
Most of our Alsike this year is either Oregon or Illinois grown. We do not sell any Oregon grown Red Clover,, but our 
Agriculture College advises Alsike Clover produced in Oregon does equally as well in Illinois. The color of the seed from 
Oregon is often much better and the berry plumper. Our Oregon seed is beautiful seed. We also can furnish Illinois Alsike 
at the same price so in ordering be sure to specify which you want. 
Alsike is very good to use in a pasture 
or hay mixture. It makes a very fine qual¬ 
ity hay and often stands several years 
without reseeding. As there are so many 
more seeds in a pound of Alsike than Red, 
it will go much farther, a bushel seeding 
usually from 10 to 13 acres. 
New Sutton Steel & Steel 
Combined Buckhorn 
and Gravity Mill 
The greatest mill made 
to finish cleaning seeds. 
Will remove noxious weed 
seeds no other mill will 
separate. This mill in¬ 
stalled at Peoria. W’e have 
same kind at San Jose, 
without the buckhorn at¬ 
tachment. 
With this mill we can take out Buckhorn and most all the dead grains. If you have some good clover seed, medium or 
mammoth containing buckhorn we will clean it up for $1.00 per bu. in small lots, or 85c per bu. if you have 35 bu. or 
more. This mill will also remove green foxtail, or pigeon grass from clover and alfalfa. 
Dodder and Dock machine. We also have installed at Peoria one of the new Rice Dodder and Dock mills. If you have 
f -— c. clover or alfalfa seed containing 
Warn . ntWTr| . these noxious weed seeds, we will 
JBrSM Hi remove them for $1.00 per bu.

Noxious Weed Seeds Found In Clover, Alfalfa and Other Farm Seeds 
GRADES OF SEED 
In cleaning seed, we get 6 grades but sell only three of 
these which are as follows— 
KELLY’S BEST, is the best grade of seed, testing 99.40 
or better pure, no noxious weeds, all large plump grains, 
a grade of seed considerably above the average. For price, 
see price list enclosed. 
FULL VALUE grade is a good grade of seed, testing 
99.00% or better pure, not as large grains or as plump, 
but more seeds to the pound. No noxious tag. 
FAIR grade. This Is a good grade of seed for the 
price. Smaller grains and possibly some brown seed but 
very few dead grains as our gravity mill removes most 
all of these seeds. 
Will comply with your state seed law. Will test 96 or 
better.
