Sc OTT’S Field Seeds have made money for successful farmers for over half a century. 
Our Grains and Grass Seeds are the very best obtainable and are as free from weed seeds and inert matter 
as the most modern seed-cleaning equipment can make them. Before being offered for sale every lot of seed is 
tested by a competent seed-analyst for purity and germination and a tag is attached to every bag showing the 
results of the test. You don’t have to guess about the goodness of Scott’s Seeds. 
Prices. 

If you find our prices a little high, remember, quality is our first consideration and that slight difference in price 
may be the difference between a good crop and a poor one. 
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.

CLOVERS 
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 
at the rate of eight to ten pounds to an acre. 
LADINO. A giant form of White Dutch Clover with prostrate 
stems which root at the nodes. It is easily injured by close 
grazing but when properly managed recovers quickly and 
yields an abundance of high-quality forage. Generally sown 
with other pasture grasses at the rate of 2 pounds per acre. 
SWEET. This is a legume whose value today as a soil-improver 
is much appreciated. It is also used for forage. 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. We recommend for 
this climate the White Blossom Biennial (Melilotus alba). 
CRIMSON. 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. 
WHITE. White Clover is specially valuable for lawn planting 
and is likewise good for pasturage. Seed can be sown any 

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 lbs. $4, 25 Ibs. $9, 50 Ibs. $16, 100 Ibs. $30.
