WOOD’S CRIMSON CLOVER SEED 
The Best Winter Legume for Hay, Pasture and Soil Improvement 
Probably the only reason Crimson Clover has not become 
the most popular fall planted crop in the South is that many 
farmers have not learned to properly inoculate it before 
planting. When inoculated and planted on fairly good soil 
it makes a luxuous winter and spring growth, furnishing 
abundant grazing from December to May, when green feed 
is so essential. There is no crop more highly relished by 
all livestock. Animals eat it so greedily that it may cause 
bloating if hungry animals are turned on it while wet. 
This can be easily avoided by keeping them off until the 
clover dries out, or by planting other crops with it. 
It is more winter hardy, disease resistant, a surer crop and 
does not require as much lime as Alfalfa, Red and Alsike 
Clover. It gives a larger cutting of hay earlier in the spring. 
It prevents loss of the soil fertility made available by freez¬ 
ing and thawing during the winter. Its root nodules add 
large quantities of nitrogen to the soil. 
Inoculate Crimson with NITRAGIN and sow 25 pounds 
per acre on a firm seed bed in August or September. The 
earlier seeded, the better. 
WOOD’S TENNESSEE GROWN CRIMSON CLOVER 
We have been able to secure only a limited quantity of 
Tennessee seed acceptable to our high standard of quality. 
We have repeatedly recleaned it in our plant to a purity of 
99V2%- This lot is far superior to seed being offered by 
many dealers with a purity of 97% and containing brown 
shrivelled seed, cheat and other noxious weeds that may 
cause trouble and a poor stand. 
WOOD’S IMPORTED CRIMSON CLOVER 
Our imported seed is the finest quality Crimson Clover 
obtainable. Large, plump, with a bright color and extremely 
high purity and strong germination. Repeated tests have 
shown no difference between the crops grown from Imported 
and Tennessee seed. Since the price is lower we suggest / 
that you plant Wood’s Imported Crimson Clover. 
Due to political difficulties in Europe, less than a third of 
our usual requirements can be imported into America this 4 ^ 
year. Farmers waiting until late to buy Crimson Clover 
will likely be disappointed. 
Increase Your Profit by Planting Wood’s 
Certified Seed Grains 
Not only v. ill it produce 15 to 35% nigher yields than un¬ 
certified seed, but crops grown from CERTIFIED seed al¬ 
ways sell at a substantially higher price per bushel. WOOD’S 
CERTIFIED SEED GRAINS are grown by us from the high¬ 
est producing strains obtainable. They are field and bin in¬ 
spected by the State Crop Improvement Association to insure 
trueness to type, purity, freedom from noxious weeds and 
disease, and germination over 90%. 
Farmers who plant WOOD’S CERTIFIED SEED repeat¬ 
edly tell us their crops net them considerably more than 
their neighbors, who plant uncertified seed. The additional 
cost of CERTIFIED seed is insignificant compared to the 
extra profit.
