MEDIUM RED. More widely known than any other variety of 
Clover. Makes a standard Clover for hay purposes, as it can 
be cut at least twice in the season. Plants grow about 2 feet in 
height. Sow the seed in the early spring or late summer at the 
rate of fifteen to twenty pounds to an acre. If used with 
other seeds, ten pounds to an acre will be sufficient. 
MAMMOTH RED. Sometimes called Sapling or English Clover. 
It is much ranker than the Medium Clover, and yields a much 
larger crop per acre. It does well on poor soil, is hardy, and 
usually will stay in the ground longer than Medium Clover. 
ALSIKE. One of the best for sowing with Timothy. The seed 
may be sown in spring, late summer or early autumn, and 
as the plants are perfectly hardy, the field seldom requires 
reseeding. The flowers resemble White Clover, but have a 
red tinge on the edge of the petals and are considerably larger. 
Thrives better on thin soils than Red Clover. Sow the seed 
in the early spring or late summer at the rate of eight to ten 
pounds to an acre. 
SWEET. This is a legume whose value today as a soil-improver 
is much appreciated. It is also used for forage. It is recom- 
mended by authorities and farmers everywhere. Will do well 
in most any soil, but it requires lime and the seed should be 
inoculated. It may be sown either in the spring or fall. Sow 
about twenty pounds of seed to an acre. Although a great 
number of different species are grown in the Old World, we 
recommend for this climate only the White Blossom Biennial 
(Melilotus alba). 
CRIMSON. This Clover is used principally for turning under as 
a green fertilizer, or for sowing with corn for a winter cover- 
crop. If desired for feed, the plants should be cut just before 
they come into bloom. Seed may be sown any time after the 
first of April at the rate of twenty pounds to the acre. Plants 
are strictly annual, therefore the field must be reseeded every 
year. Thrives on poor land and increases fertility of the soil. 
WHITE. White Clover is specially valuable for lawn planting 
and is likewise good for pasturage. Seed can be sown any 
Harvesting Wheat with a Model ‘‘WC”’ Allis-Chalmers Tractor and 
500 Liberty Ave. - 113 Diamond St. 
SEEDS 
The Grains and Grass Seeds we offer are 
selected with special reference to their purity 
and germination, and great care is used to 
have them free from noxious foreign seeds. 
Every lot of seed is tested by a competent 
seed-analyst for purity and germination 
before it is offered for sale. A tag is attached 
to every bag showing the results of the test, 
also the origin of the seed. With this informa- 
tion, every farmer knows exactly what he is 
getting and what he is paying for. 
We handle the very best seeds the market 
affords. An extra dollar or so per bushel 
means only a few cents extra per acre and 
this often represents the difference between 
a good crop and a poor one. Quality is our 
first consideration. With over 60 years’ ex- 
perience, you can depend on us for your seeds. 
Prices, Owing to the frequent changes in 
the market prices of Field Seeds 
and Grains, it is impossible to name prices 
in our Catalogue. Latest price-list will be 
gladly sent on request.

CLOVER, WHITE, continued 
time in early spring or summer. It is perfectly hardy and very 
thrifty. Use from ten to twelve pounds to the acre if sown 
alone; about five pounds to the acre if sown on old sod or 
with other Clover. 
ALFALFA 
One of the most nutritious plants grown; valuable as a dried 
hay or for pasture. With proper cultivation it can be grown on 
some part of almost any farm in Pennsylvania or adjoining 
states. Two or three cuttings can be made in a season, producing 
from 3 to 5 tons of hay per acre. Ton for ton its feed-value equals 
that of wheat-bran. From 12 to 15 pounds of seed are usually 
sown to the acre; some growers sow only 10 pounds to the acre. 
GRIMM ALFALFA. This variety is well known and is sown 
because of its hardiness, productiveness, and greater resistance 
to all types of ‘‘yellowing.’’ The extra cost per acre for seed of 
this variety is generally justified. 
Inoculate all Clover and Alfalfa seed with Farmogerm. See page 63 
TIMOTHY 
A description of this old familiar hay-making grass is un- 
necessary here. It is recognized by almost everyone wherever 
found, and is probably the most extensively grown of all the 
grasses. It may be sown alone or with Red or Alsike Clover, or 
with other grasses. From twelve to fifteen pounds of seed are 
usually sown to the acre. 
PERMANENT PASTURE MIXTURE 
A well-balanced pasture-producing mixture made up of the 
very highest grades of recleaned grass and clover seeds, which 
will produce an abundant and nutritious food-supply for all 
kinds of stock. The land should be plowed in the fall, left rough 
over winter, and prepared in the spring, making the seed-beds as 
fine as possible by repeated harrowing. After seeding, the land 
should be rolled. An occasional top-dressing of fertilizer high in 
nitrogen is advisable after the grass is established. Sow 40 pounds 
to the acre. A bushel weighs about 28 pounds. 5 lbs. $2.25, 
10 Ibs. $4, 25 Ibs. $8.75, 50 lbs. $16, 100 Ibs. $30.
