Alfalfa 
CLOVER 
Clover contains valuable minerals neces¬ 
sary for the growth and welfare of animals. 
Clover is a legume, and in its growth takes 
nitrogen from the air and stores it in the soil. 
Plant several clovers in your permanent pas¬ 
ture. 
CALIFORNIA HULLED 
BUR CLOVER 
INOCULATE SEED WITH NITRAGIN “A” 
Bur Clover is used extensively and does 
well mixed with other clovers and grasses 
for permanent pastures. It also thrives on a 
wide range of soils, including sandy loams 
and lime-clad soils, 
jit is one of the finest crops for winter 
pasturage, and being a legume, it also places 
nitrogen in the soil while growing. 
Bur Clover may be sown advantageously on 
Bermuda sod, the two plants furnishing al¬ 
most continuous grazing. In this case the 
seeds are either sown early without cover¬ 
ing, or else the Bermuda sod is so plowed 
as not to destroy the roots. Use four to 
six pounds of the hulled seed per acre for 
planting on Bermuda sod. 
This variety of Clover is popular for sow¬ 
ing in mixtures of grasses and clovers, as 
the seed are out of the bur and more easily 
planted. Lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 55c, postpaid. Not 
postpaid, 10 lbs. $1.75. Ask for prices i*' 
larger quantities. ^ 
MELILOTUS INDICA 
(Annual Yellow Blossom Clover) 
INOCULATE SEED WITH NITRAGIN “A” 
Sometimes called Yellow Blossom Sweet 
Clover and also spoken of as Sour Clover. 
The chief use of this Clover has been for 
early pasturage and soil improvement, and 
is rapidly becoming recognized as a wonder¬ 
ful plant to plow under for green manure. 
This plant, like many other clovers, thrives 
best on lime soils; however, it has been suc¬ 
cessfully grown on other types of soils. Its 
use should be extended more widely for 
winter pasturage and as a winter cover crop, 
especially on stiff lands. 
The land is seldom prepared for Melilotus 
Indica. Instead, the seeds are sown with 
those of early fall grains or between the 
rows of some summer crop, or even broad¬ 
cast over unplowed land. 
Plant in September, October or November 
at the rate of 15 pounds to the acre, or 
about four pounds to the acre when planted 
with clovers and grasses. It will grow thru 
the entire winter and is just the plant to 
build up rundown soils. Lb. 25c; 2 lbs. 40c; 
I-ostpafd. Ask for prices in larger quantities. 
WHITE FLOWERING SWEET CLOVER— 
Thrives on practically all soils in Texas. 
Sweet Clover is a splendid soil builder and 
especially so when the entire crop is tiirned 
under. Every planter with cows should have 
a patch as it is a great milk producer. Sow 
at the rate of 16 to 20 pounds to the acre. 
Lb. 55c, not postpaid. 
SATEX RECLEANED TESTED FIELD SEEDS 
Scientifically Tested for Purity and Germination

somewhat short. This means changing prices. Therefore, all prices here listed are subject to 
change without notice. 
You may rest assured that we will give you full value for your dollar on orders entrusted 
to us. If in doubt as to prices, send us a list of the field seeds you expect to purchase, show¬ 
ing the amount of each item and we will quote you by letter. 
ALFALFA 
HAIRY PERUVIAN—Is particularly rec¬ 
ommended for our own State of Texas. As 
compared with common alfalfa. Hairy Peru¬ 
vian is more upright, less branched and has 
fewer and somewhat coarser stems and small¬ 
er crown. It is also characterized by rapid 
growth, large amount of leaves, quick re¬ 
covery after cutting and ability to make 
rapid growth in cool weather after ordinary 
alfalfa has ceased growing. Broadcast, 20 lbs, 
to 1 acre. Lb. 35c. not postpaid. 
PERSIAN CLOVER 
A marvelous new Clover that should be 
planted on every pasture in the South. Fur¬ 
nishes splendid grazing from December until 
June. Will carry 4 to 6 head of cattle per 
acre throughout the growing season. Yields 
2 to 3 tons of rich, palatable hay per acre. 
Cures very quickly. Reseeds itself even when 
closely grazed and spreads rapidly. Grows 2 
to 3 feet high, bears small pink flowers and 
seeds heavily. Will stand heavier, wetter 
lands than most Clovers. As a soil builder, 
many of our customers report that they have 
doubled their yields of corn after two years 
of this Clover. 
Persian Clover grows well in mixtures, and 
is often planted with White Dutch, Bermuda 
and Dallis Grass. It has a deeper rooted sys¬ 
tem than White Dutch and requires less 
moisture for its success. It grows equally 
well on clay or loamy soils, other conditions 
being favorable. Sow 6 to 8 pounds per acre 
from September to November in the fall or 
early spring. Cover very lightly. Include this 
sensational new Clover in your pasture mix¬ 
tures this spring. Seed should be inoculated 
with NITRAGIN. Lb. 55c; 5 lbs. $2.50. 
POPCORN 
There is always a good market for Pop 
Corn, and every corn grower should plant it.

grains long and slender. Used by nearly all 
commercial poppers. A really wonderful var¬ 
iety. Lb. 15c, not postpaid.

in great abundance on stalks nearly 6 feet 
high. It pops perfectly white. A single kernel

SEED CORN 
SURE CROPPER CORN--A truly remark¬ 
able drought resisting power. As old as is the 
history of corn growing in the South and 
Southwest is the search for a corn able to 
hold up and make a crop on the scanty 
moisture which we have in so many fields 
at some period of almost every season. In 
Sure Cropper we have found that corn. Lb. 
10c, not postpaid. 
GIANT WHITE RED COB—Makes a very 
large ear of the finest corn. Grains very 
large, deep, wide and thick, cob red, very 
popular wherever tried. We recommend this

Corn. Has a very large, deep, wide, thick 
grain. Grain of medium size. Lb. 10c, not

corn is deeply grained and very uniform in 
size. A sure cropper and good yielder. Ma¬ 
tures in 90 to 100 days. Lb. 15c, postpaid. 
NATIVE SQUAW CORN—A drought-resisting variety, plant- 
able in the summer months. It has blue and white grains, there¬ 
fore not so desirable by the market gardener. However, it makes 
a sweet and very juicy roasting ear. Lb. 10c, not postpaid. 
TEXAS GROWN JUNE CORN—The stalks under favorable 
conditions grow from 7 to 8 feet high, and yield from 30 to 60 
bushels to the acre. For best results it should not be planted 
until June or July, as it stands the hot weather better than any 
corn. Seed can be produced at any time after May 15th. Lb. 10c, 
not postpaid. 
CHAMPION WHITE PEARL—An extra early pure white var¬ 
iety of dent corn. Matures in 100 days from time of planting, is 
very productive and the ears are exceedingly heavy. The grains 
are extra deep and white, and the cob is very small. A great 
favorite. Lb. 10c, not postpaid. 
DROUGHT RESISTER CORN—It is a white, early maturing, 
deep rooted, drought resisting corn, with medium size stalk; a 
corn that is easy to get a stand of, for it is a very hardy variety 
and a fast grower. • Drought Resister is an exceptionally deep- 
rooted corn with roots almost straight down, with an abundant 
root system, permitting plowing within 6 inches of stalk without 
disturbing the root system. It is almost impossible for a man 
to pull up a stalk of Drought Resister when iii roasting ear. 
Lb. 10c, not postpaid. 
TEXAS KING—A 90-day white corn. A cross of Sure Cropper 
and Hickory King. A splendid drought resister and a very heavy 
yielder. We suggest that you plant some of this in comparison 
with your present, corn. Lb. 10c, not postpaid. 
TEXAS HONEY JUNE—Requires 87 days. A variety of Sweet 
Corn, especially adapted to growing in Texas. This corn was per¬ 
fected by the Texas Experiment Station, at College Station, Texas.

damage. Stalk about 6 feet tall. Ears, medium size, with 14 to 
16 rows. We strongly recommend giving this wonderful corn a 
trial. Pkt. 10c; lb. 30c, not postpaid.

Corn, that matures in about 90 days, the ears measuring 10 to 12 
inches and a big portion of the crop makes 2 ears to the stalk.

most varieties. Lb. 15c, not postpaid.
