LADINO WHITE CLOVER 
Sow it for a year round pasture. U.S. Department of Agricul- 
ture says: “Lhadino is the largest growing form of white clover. 
It is similar to White Dutch but grows about twice as large. 
Introduced from South Europe, where climate is similar to ours in 
the Southeast, it is widely grown throughout the United States, is 
very popular in the West and is becoming important in the Hast 
where fields are properly managed. Do not graze it below two 
inches. It is grazed either alone, or with grass to avoid the risk of 
bloating. Many farmers cut it for hay in the summer and graze it 
the rest of the year. The hay is most nutritious and palatable.” 
It is a long lived perennial. Its tap root goes down one to three 
feet. The stems run on the ground, taking root. One plant covers 
two feet. A sparse stand soon thickens into a dense even growth. 
The only parts available to grazing are the highly nutritious leaves 
and flowers which rise 12 to 20 inches in great profusion from the 
numerous joints. It outgrows Bermuda, Johnson grass and many 
weeds. It is not subject to alfalfa diseases and is ideal to plant 
after alfalfa. It does not bloat livestock as readily as other clovers 
but is safer to plant with paspalum, timothy, red top, meadow 
fescue, Kentucky blue, orchard, carpet andrye grass. It is included 
in all Wood’s Permanent Pasture’ Mixture, see page 44. 
It grows on any soils, even shallow hardpans, but does best on 
loam or clay where moisture is plentiful. The seed is so small 
it requires a firm hard seedbed, planted shallow and covered very 
lightly. Unscarified Ladino germinates only about 45%. Our 
seed is scarified, germinates over 90%, requiring one-half as much 
per acre. Inoculate and sow in spring or fall, 5 lbs. per acre alone, 
or 3 lbs. in mixtures. Don’t pasture until plants spread and start 
sending up shoots from the joints. 
Wood's Alfalfa Seed 
Tests from Ohio to Georgia prove Kansas Alfalfa yields more 
hay than from any other source. It stands the severe winters of 
Kansas and will come through ours without winterkilling. It 
grows vigorously from early spring till fall. Utah Alfalfa is grown 
at very high altitudes, is winter resistant, later starting in the 
spring and better adapted to Northern States and higher altitudes 
in the South. In mountain sections with extremely cold winters, 
plant Grimm, the hardest of all alfalfa; its deep branching roots 
prevent winter heaving. All of WOOD’S ALFALFA SEED is 9914% 
pure, over 90% germination, free of noxious weeds and U.S. Verified 
Origin. Sow only U.S. Verified Origin seed to avoid a crop failure, 
Inoculate Alfalfa and sow 20 lbs. per acre on a thoroughly 
prepared, firm seed bed in March, April, August or September. It 
prefers deep, rich, well drained soil containing plenty of organic 
matter and lime. Every year apply 400 pounds per acre of Wood’s 
Grain Fertilizer and your stand should last 6 to 8 years giving

bloom. Do not cut in the late fall. 

ES Siamese 
sWOOD’S KANSAS ALFALFA gives several cuttings each season 
and lasts many years. In the Virginia State test 4 plantings of 
Kansas Alfalfa stood the winters better than from any other 
source and adveraged 4% tons per acre. 

LADINO CLOVER furnishes splendid pasture throughout the 
year. It starts its vigorous spring growth early, and continues 
jater in the fall than orchard and dallas grass. It furnishes more 
feed than Sudan or alfalfa. It will enable the South to become a 
livestock country, enriching our soils, stopping erosion and gath- 
ering nitrogen. 
Wood’s Dixie White Clover 
One of the few plants that furnishes abundant grazing through- 
out the year under severe southern conditions. The hottest dry 
summers do not stop its steady growth. It has no equal for winter 
and early spring grazing by its vigorous growth in the coldest 
weather. It blooms a month earlier than white dutch clover, 
growing several inches taller with leaves and stems larger. Ina 
two-year test (except Ladino) with varieties from all over the 
world, it made by far the best grazing. It was the earliest to 
bloom, made the most luxuriant winter and early spring growth, 
10 inches tall and stood the hot dry summers. 
White Dutch Clover 
Include it in all lawn or pasture mixtures on all types of soil, 
even sandy, acid, or in shade, although it grows most luxuriously 
in limed moist lowland. It furnishes winter and spring pasturage, 
preferred by all livestock, is not easy to tramp out, restricts 
washing, adds fertility, and aids growth of companion grasses. 
TInoculate and sow in spring or late summer, 5 to 8 lbs. per acre 
alone, or 2 to 8 lbs. in mixture. 
White Sweet Clover 
SCARIFIED 
A wonderful pasture, hay, soil improving and honey plant. 
Adapted to all well drained soils if inoculated and limed. It isa 
good crop to condition land for alfalfa, which it resembles. It is 
biennial, growing from a deep root system the second year, and 
will reseed if allowed to. It makes an enormous vigorous growth, 
allowing several cuttings a year, but should be cut before blooms 
appear. It is a splendid pasture crop, relished by all livestock and 
will not cause bloating. Inoculate and sow preferably on small 
grains 15 lbs. per acre from February to April.
