WOOD’S CRIMSON CLOVER SEED 
THE BEST WINTER LEGUME FOR HAY PASTURE AND SOIL IMPROVEMENT 
It is more winter hardy, disease resistant, 
a surer crop and does not require as much 
lime as Alfalfa, Red and Alsike Clover. It 
gives a larger cutting of hay earlier in the 
spring. It prevents loss of the soil fertility 
made available by freezing and thawing in 
winter. Its root nodules add large quantity 
of nitrogen to the soil. Summer crops are 
doubled when Crimson Clover is turned 
under. 
Wood’s Domestic 
Crimson Clover 
We have carefully selected our 
seed from crops that were not 
rain damaged, that show a 
bright, healthy color, and were 
grown in fields that were free of 
noxious weeds. Heavy rains this 
spring encouraged weed growth 
and severely damaged the qual¬ 
ity of much of the domestic 
Crimson Clover seed, and this 
shrivelled damaged seed will on¬ 
ly produce a weak, spotty stand, 
resulting in many crop failures. 
Most of the local seed offered us 
is so full of wild onions, cheat 
and other weed seeds we have 
refused to handle it. Farmers 
should carefully avoid buying 
this low grade seed. To be sure 
of a good stand free of noxious 
weeds, plant Wood’s recfleaned, 
bright, high germinating Domes¬ 
tic Crimson Cloyer seed. 
Be sure to INOCULATE and sow 20 ibs. 
par acre on a firm seed bed in August or 
September. Makes a luxurious winter and 
spring growth, furnishing abundant grazing 
from December to May, when green feed is 
so essential. No crop is more highly rel¬ 
ished by all livestock. They eat it so greed¬ 
ily it may cause bloating if hungry animals 
are turned on it while wet. Avoided by 
keeping them off until it dries or by plant¬ 
ing other crops with it. 
Wood’s Imported 
Crimson Clover 
For generations the South has 
depended on Europe for the bulk 
of our Crimson Clover seed, as it 
is of such high quality. Repeat¬ 
ed tests prove it unsurpassed in 
growth, adaptation and winter 
hardiness. The war has largely 
cut off this supply. Through our 
strong connections with old re¬ 
liable seed firms in the Allied 
countries we have been able to 
import a limited quantity of as 
fine a quality seed as we have 
ever seen. It is large, plump, 
bright seed, of extremely high 
purity and strong germination. 
We offer this seed at a very low 
price considering the difficulty 
and expense we went to—so as 
not to disappoint our regular 
customers who depend on us 
every year for Wood’s Imported 
Crimson Clover Seed.
