YELLOW BLOSSOM SWEET CLOVER SEED. Out¬ 
side the lower and heavier soil sections of the 
Northwest the Yellow Blossom variety seems to 
be better adapted than the white. Its advantages 
over the higher and drier sections are greater 
hardiness as regards a combination of cold and 
drought, finer quality of hay, a crown like alfalfa 
so that it may be cut as close to the ground as 
one wishes. We have a wonderfully fine stock of
