This is a clover so valuable, so 
adaptable to conditions unfavorable 
to other clovers that many farmers 
are passing up a good bet when they 
do not use it. In this World Brand 
you secure our finest quality. High¬ 
est in color and plumpest berries. 
The grade that has satisfied our 
most critical trade for years. All 
hardy U. S. Grown seed. 
Alsike is a fine stemmed perennial 
clover. Higher in feeding value than Red, 
greener in color and less dusty. Under favorable condi¬ 
tions stems grow 3 to 5 feet long. Prefers loam to heavy 
soils. Grows on land too sour for red and is extra winter 
hardy. It is excellent practice to sow a couple of pounds 
of alsike per acre with Red. Plelps to secure a better 
stand and a thicker growth. 
Alsike is economical to sow. It is a smaller seeded 
clover, 5 to 6 pounds per acre is plenty to sow. Use it 
alone or with other grasses for hay and pasture. Stands 
trampling. An extra good clover for pasture and makes 
wonderful hay. 
Alsike is grown from Oregon to Maine and from Minne¬ 
sota to Tennessee and other southern states. In the south is 
used largely for pasture on lower ground. North and east 
it shows its great value as a hay crop. Extra good on 
wet land, stands a lot of overflow. Its use however, is by 
no means confined to wet land. It is generally easier to 
get a stand of alsike. Compare our values. Although the 
seed is relatively scarce we have very low prices and can 
save you money on this our finest quality.

it is a value we are sure you will appreciate. Return 
seed for refund if you are not completely satisfied. See

To succeed best with Alsike and other clovers make 
sure your seed bed is firm and cover seed lightly. 
Some harrow to cover. Others only roll. Rolling; is 
excellent practice. Seed should have some covering 
but not much. Don’t use too heavy a nurse crop. 
That kills lots of clover seedings. Pasturing the 
nurse crop often gives the best clover stand and 
especially in dry weather.

Low in cost yet heavy in production. A bushel (60 lbs.) sows 7 to 8 
acres. Costs only around $1.00 per acre. Eight pounds averages

adds to the yield. The Alsike helps the Timothy make a better 
growth and have higher feeding value. Produces heavy crops of hay

mixed with the Timothy to make a blending and quality that our

requires less seed per acre.

The low growing 
white clover so 
widely used in pas¬ 
ture and lawn seed¬ 
ings. It is a peren¬ 
nial that roots at 
the j o i n t s. Will 
withstand acid con¬ 
ditions and poor drainage. Does not 
require rich soil but responds well to 
fertilizer. Pasture and. lawn grasses 
make better growth with the clover 
^ than when grown alone and they con¬ 
tain more protein. The seed is very 
small. Two to three pounds makes a 
good mixture in pastures. Even.one 
pound helps a lot. Lawn seedings 
require a heavier rate. 
White Dutch Clover is very scarce 
this year. Our prices low consider¬ 
ing conditions. See page 41. 
Small Lots, Postpaid: 1 lb., 85c;
