Alsike, or Hybrid Clover 
Alfalfa. Northwestern-grown alfalfa pro¬ 
duces from 3 to 7 tons of hay to the acre. 
It has as much protein as wheat-bran. 
Three hundred and sixty stalks have been 
grown from 1 seed. It does not exhaust the 
soil; it enriches the soil. It will grow three 
to five crops a year. Alfalfa in money value 
is worth 45 per cent more than other 
clovers and 60 per cent more than timothy. 
Ten milch cows can be fed on less than 2 
acres by soiling. Lb. 35c., bu. $18.00. 
Canadian Variegated Alfalfa. This Al¬ 
falfa was developed in Ontario, Canada, 
and is a cross between Grimm and North¬ 
western. It comes to us field-inspected 
and certified to be 60 per cent variegated 
flowered. It does not spread as much as 
the Grimm or common. It is recommended 
by the Experiment Stations for northern 
Pennsylvania and New York State. 
Lb. 40c., 10 lbs. $3.50. 
Grimm. We have the genuine certified 
Grimm Alfalfa produced in the Northwest, 
where the climate is colder for longer 
periods than in the eastern States. More 
hardy than the common, has a different 
root system and comes through on soils 
that will not maintain the common va¬ 
riety. Comes in sealed containers certify¬ 
ing its genuineness. Lb. 40c., 10 lbs. $3.50. 
Crimson, or German Clover ( Trifolium in- 
carnatum) . Erect annual, 1 to 2 ft. high, 
with bright scarlet flowers. It is largely 
grown for improving the soil by turning 
under. It is a valuable crop for pasturage 
or green manure. For hay it should be 
cut when in full bloom. Sow 20 lbs. to the 
acre. Lb. 25c. 
Mammoth Red Clover. {Domestic-grown) 
Pea Vine or Sapling Clover. A large, rank¬ 
growing clover, ripening at the same time 
as timothy, producing an enormous yield. 
It is a valuable plant for our depleted, 
worn-out hills, producing a satisfactory 
yield. Our stock of this clover is the Gen¬ 
uine Mammoth. Lb. 35c., bus. (60 lbs.) 
$15.50. (Prices subject to market changes.) 
Medium Red Clover. ( Domestic-grown) 
Red or June Clover is probably more gen¬ 
erally grown than any other. This crop is 
the stand-by for American farmers, both 
for hay and soiling. Much publicity has 
been given this important crop during the 
past few years as to the adaptability of 
seeds from Southern sections when planted 
in the Northern States. It is agreed among 
investigators that seed for planting under 
Pennsylvania farm conditions should be 
northern-grown, to stand our harsh Winter 
and early Spring conditions. We take great 
pains to offer our trade only seed of the 
Medium Red variety that is northern- 
grown, as free as possible from weeds, and 
of the best germination. Our Domestic 
Medium Red Clover is always the best 
procurable. Lb. 30c., 10 lbs. $2.75, bu. 
$15.00. 
IMPORTED CLOVER SEED 
By Government act this seed is stained a 
green color to distinguish it from non- 
adaptable Italian Seed. Our customers who 
have been growing this seed report that their 
results are equal to the results obtained from 
domestic seed. This but confirms experi¬ 
mental station reports. Lb. 25c., bu. $12.00. 
ALSIKE OR SWEDISH 
This is one of the hardiest varieties known. 
It is perennial and does not winter-kill. It 
will do better on moist land than any other 
variety of clover, and is suitable for either 
hay or pasture. When sown with other 
grasses, it forms a thick undergrowth and 
greatly increases the yield. It is frequently 
sown both with Medium Red and with Tim¬ 
othy. Lb. 35c., 10 lbs. $3.00. (Prices subject 
to market changes.) 
Perennial 
WHITE SWEET CLOVER 
C Melilotus alba) 
A legume of immense 
size and rank growth. 
It has great value as a 
soil improver. It fur¬ 
nishes a palatable hay and makes excellent 
pasture. 
Sweet Clover will grow on almost any soil 
where proper amounts of lime have been 
applied. Its immense growth (8 to 10 ft.) 
and its ability to gather nitrogen from the air 
and deposit it in bacterial nodules on the 
roots, together with the large amounts of 
humus it supplies to the soil when turned 
down, makes it an ideal crop to improve good 
soil and a splendid crop to build up poor land. 
Sweet Clover. Makes a good grade of hay 
and it will produce a larger tonnage than 
any other legume crop; it averages two or 
more cuttings per year. Lime well for sweet 
clover, at least ton hydrated lime per 
acre, or its equivalent. Sow 25 lbs. per acre. 
Lb. 20c., 10 lbs. $1.50. 
Yellow Sweet Clover ( Melilotus officinalis). 
This is also a biennial similar to White 
Blossom Sweet Clover, and used for the 
same purpose. It has a yellow blossom and 
is about two weeks earlier and not so tall. 
It does not grow so heavy and coarse. It 
lays closer to the ground and is considered 
superior for pasture and makes a finer 
grade of hay. For those who do not like the 
White Sweet Clover on account of its rank 
growth we would recommend the Yellow 
Blossom. Lb. 20c., bu. $8.00.
