Red Clover 
RED CLOVER 
Virginia Grown 
Red Clover, sometimes referred to os Old Time Red 
or June"'Clover, needs no description with the overage 
farmer. It has for many years been the leading clover 
in farm rotation. Matures early and produces a second 
crop, affording late pasture, a crop of seed, or if left on 
the ground is fine for improving soil. It produces a nit¬ 
rogen needed in most soils that is hard to obtain in any 
other way. Lb. 22c, Bu. $11.50. 
Imported Red Clover, Ib. 18c, bu. $10.00. 
MAMMOTH OR SAPLING CLOVER 
Virginia Grown 
Mammoth or Sapling Clover is widely known and used 
very extensively, especially when clover is seeded with 
Timothy, and it is desired to cut for hay. Mammoth 
Clover being later than old time Red, matures much more 
evenly with Timothy. It makes a much more vigorous 
growth resulting in greater tonnage pef acre. Lb. 23c, 
Bu. $12.00. 
Imported Sapling Clover Ib. 18c., Bu. $10.50. 
SWEET CLOVER 
A Real Soil Builder 
There is probably no crop that will improve soil fertility 
as fast as sweet clover if a reasonable stand and growth 
is obtained Sweet clover will grow on any type of soil, 
provided it is well limed and inoculated, and like all other 
crops it responds readily and profitably to fertilizer and 
manure. 
When sowing sweet clover in the spring some nurse crop 
should olways be used, as it does not compete strongly 
with weeds, and when sown alone it is likely to be killed 
out. Anv of the early small grains, such as oats or a 
fall-sown grain are the best nurse crops for sweet clover. 
Sow 15 to 20 lbs. per acre of Scarified or Hulled seed. 
Yellow Sweet Clover responds to same treatment as 
White. Is not quite as tall and ten days earlier. White or 
Yellow, Ib. 10c, Bu. $5.00. 
Unhulled Sweet Clover 
Sow in February and March at the rate of 20 to 25 lbs. 
to acre. By sowing the unhulled it gets an earlier start 
in the spring and is more likely to catch. Very popular 
in recent years. White or Yellow Ib. 8c, Bu. $4 25. 
ALSIKE CLOVER 
Aisike Clover is being more widely used each year ow¬ 
ing to the fact that it will grow on acid soil Aisike is 
very hardy, frequently taking hold where other clover 
fails, especially in low, wet places, or on high gravel soil. 
Makes a very desirable hay for home feeding, and is a 
soil improver. In a bushel of Aisike there are 50 per cent 
more seeds than a bushel of other clover. 97.50% purity 
Lb. 24c, Bu. $14.00. 97% purity. Lb. 23c, Bu. $13.50. 
WHITE DUTCH CLOVER 
For Lawns and Pastures

ground like a carpet. Sow either in the spring or fall. 
When sown by itself, sow 5 to 6 pounds per acre; it is 
better, however, sown in mixture with other grasses. Lb. 
70c, 5 lbs. 68c Ib. 
KENT COUNTY WILD WHITE CLOVER

white clovers. E.xcellent for grazing for beef cattle. Pro¬ 
duces extremely thick root system, which provides its 
rare qualities as a pasture grass—-Used with many of the 
ordinary grasses, helps them produce much better stands.

CRIMSON OR SCARLET 
(Trifolium Incarnatum) 
The Great Nitrogen Gatherer. The best crop for hay, 
soiling and green manuring; Fall, Winter and Spring pas¬ 
turing. Crimson Clover furnishes an abundance of nutri¬ 
tive forage at seasons when pastures are dead. Improves 
poor land, restores to fertility those that have been worn 
down by excessive cropping. May be planted in the 
Spring, Summer or Fall. Lb. 14c, Bu. $7.50. 
KOREAN LESPEDEZA 
This popular new type of Clover is coming into large 
demand. "Korean Lespedeza" makes the best and pret¬ 
tiest of hay, equal ot Alfalfa in analysis and feed value. 
Grows 20-24 in. tall and very thick on good land, pro¬ 
duces 2 to 3 tons of hay per acre each year and reseeds 
itself if tut properly, even with closest grazing. It grows 
readily in acid soil. It requires no land preparation for 
sowing; does not cause slobber nor bloat when pastured. 
Korean makes the best and cheapest midsummer pasture 
from June through September, is drought resistant and 
is cut for hay in August when least likely to be lost from 
wet weather. It may be put in the barn 36 hours after 
cutting. It permits use of land for small grain crops, in¬ 
creases soil fertility and costs less to get and keep a stand 
than other important legumes. Sow on small grain from 
February 1st to April 15th, 20 pounds per acre. Does well 
in most pasture mixtures.
