Alfalfa is so high and short, 
there won’t be enough seed to

I picked up this special lot of 
Alfalfa-Clover Mixture. It gives 
you an Alfalfa seeding at low

Sweet Clover. If you have some 
high or poor spots the Red 
Clover and Alsike will give you 
a better stand than Alfalfa 
alone. 
Sow at the usual rate of 15 pounds per acre and 
you will have plenty of Alfalfa seed for a full stand 
anyway. A little clover that may show up in the 
first cutting will be taken over by the Alfalfa on 
the sweet soil before you make any future hay crop. 
Only a small amount of this lot available.

WHITE & YELLOW SWEET CLOVER MIXED 
This mixture of white and yellow 
Sweet Clovers saves you money but 
still is better for pasture. The Yel- 
low Blossom makes earlier pasture 
and the White Blossom makes later 
pasture, stretching pasturing sea- 
son by several weeks. Ideal for 
soil improvement. Seed is cheap 
in this mixture but still meets all 
AAA requirements. The seed goes 
a long way and your pasture is 
better quality, finer stemmed, more 
tender than straight White Blos- 
som. 
By buying White and Yellow Sweet Clover Mixed you 
get good quality—but it costs you less. For many years, 
now, this has been one of our most popular mixtures for

our top quality red 
clover but is fancy, re-

free, running from 97% >
