Build Your Soil with [LOVER 
There is a Clover For Most All Types of Soil and Conditions 
@ SELECT THE TYPE YOUR 
SOIL NEEDS 
For instance, Alsike does best on low, 
moist soils. Red does best on rolling well- 
drained soil. Both require lime. On other 
hand, Burr Clover will grow nicely without 
lime. There's a clover that fits in with your 
requirements that will prove profitable in 
your farming operations. Sometimes as a 
hay crop, sometimes for pasture purposes, 
and ALWAYS as a soil builder. Every South- 
ern farm should have some kind of clover 
crop growing each year. This is nature's 
method of soil rejuvenation—the road to 
profitable farming. 
INOCULATE THE SEED BY ALL MEANS 
Field tests have shown that better crops 
are harvested when Legume seeds are inoc- 
ulated even when planted on fields where 
inoculated seeds of the same Legume crops 
had grown the previous year. Use NITRA- 
GIN-—the oldest and most widely used inoc- 
ulator in America, Y2-bu. size, each, 35c, 
pestpaid. 

} TOP NOTCH CLOVERS 
WHITE SWEET CLOVER 
(Biennial Melilotus Alba) 
Good for forage pasture and soil improve- 
ment—will grow on almost any southern soil 
(even very sandy soils) that contain lime, thriv- 
ing on land too poor to grow red clover or 
alfalfa. Resembles alfalfa when young but 
grows much larger, almost same rank in feed- 
ing value, both as hay and green foliage. 
Stock seldom relish it at first, but when forced 
to eat it, soon develop a decided preference 
for it. Cut it before it reaches the blossom stage 
—too woody after that. Being a biennial, will 
disappear unless allowed to make seed second 
fall. Sow 15 to 25 pounds per acre. Postpaid, 
1 Ib., 35c; 5 Ibs., $1.35; 10 Ibs., $2.50. 
WHITE DUTCH CLOVER 
(Perennial) 
FOR PASTURE. Is one of the most palatable 
and nutritious of all pasture plants. It is well 
suited to most soils in the South. Does best on 
lime soils but grows with very little lime pres- 
ent. A very dry summer may cut down the 
stand greatly but will come back, unsurpassed 
in value in a wet season, splendid in connection 
with Bermuda and Lespedeza, does not cause 
bloating, high in protein, thrives under tram- 
pling, comes out early in the spring without 
interfering with other grasses. It is not adapted 
for hay, it is creeping in type, but should be in 
all pastures. Sow 4 to 6 pounds per acre. 
FOR LAWNS. White Dutch Clover is used ex- 
tensively to supplement various lawn grasses 
and mixtures in making heaviest green turf to 
last for many years and to stand rough treat- 
ment. One pound will sow 40 x 25, or 1,000 
square feet. Prices, postpaid, 4 lb., 60c; lb., 
$1.10; 3 lbs., $3.00; 5 lbs., $4.75. 
CRIMSON CLOVER 
(Annual) 
This clover has come into its own in the last 
few years, tremendous increases in acreage 
have been made. Sow it in August, September 
end October, it grows upright and reaches 
maturity the following spring, furnishes splen- 
did cold weather pasture and is a splendid 
soil builder, It is adaptable to a wide variety 
of soils. Lime helps it but its lime requirement 
is low compared to Red Clover. Basic Slag 
containing Phosphoric Acid is a splendid help 
as itis to qil pastures. 
Sow 12 to 18 lbs. per acre, cover the seed 
lightly. Moisture is also important in getting 
the seed up. Crimson is fine in a mixture with 
Rye grass, Rye or other cereals. It can be 
sown to advantage on a bermuda sod—not 
ever two inches high but we think sown on 
prepared land is the best method. Prices quoted 
in August.

ALYCE CLOVER 
(Annual) 
A three-purpose legume which will grow on 
and improve poor soils, yield an excellent qual- 
ity hay, and has few superiors for summer and 
early fall grazing. It is not injured by trampling 
or grazing due to its deep spreading root sys- 
tem. Starts growing after rye grass, bur, crim- 
son, white clover and other winter crops go to 
seed. It is an annual, reseeding abundantly in 
October and returning every summer unless 
destroyed by summer cultivation. It will grow 
on a wide range of soils, from the poorest sand 
land to good clay loam soils. However, the 
sandy loam soils satisfy it best. (Not adaptable 
to wet lands or heavy clay.) Sow 15 to 20 lbs. 
per acre broadcast. If land is weed infested, 
suggest planting in 314 to 4-foot rows and cul- 
tivate, using 5 lbs. of seed per acre. Give seed 
a light covering. Plant only during May and 
June as the seed will not germinate until warm 
weather. Postpaid 1 lb., 55c; 3 lbs., $1.35; 5 
Ibs., $2.00. 
EARLY GIANT SOUTHERN 
BURR CLOVER 
(Annual) 
A new and distinct type of the Southern 
Spotted Leaf Burr Clover, far superior to the 
original, being 3 to 4 weeks earlier in growth, 
blooming and maturing of seed. Does best on 
sandy loam, and poorest on heavy black buck- 
shot. Sow July, August, September, October, 30 
to 50 pounds of seed in the burr per acre, 
preferably in cotton middles. Can be pastured 
1 winter and spring, or turned under in 
March, Will volunteer each fall for three years, 
then turn under again fourth year. One of the 
finest soil builders known. Prices quoted in 
August. 
RED CLOVER 
(Biennial) 
For general utility and in a crop rotation 
Red Clover is probably unsurpassed. It re- 
ires lime and if Basic Slag is applied will 
ive on any well drained soil, reasonably 
fertile, containing lime, anywhere in the South. 
Yields 1 to 2 cuttings of hay; feeding value 
next to Alfalfa. As a soil builder Red Clover 
is equal to any. Sow in March, April, Septem- 
ber and October. Prepare the seed bed thor- 
oughly, discing and harrowing. Sow seed, then 
roli in with a roller or cultipacker. Have the 
ground free of weeds. Being a biennial, it must 
be allowed to make seed the second fall, else 
it will disappear. Be sure to inoculate with 
Nitragin B; sown with wheelbarrow seeder 
gives excellent results, so does the grain drill 
and rotary hand seeder. Sow 6 to 10 lbs. per 
Ped Postpaid, 1 lb., 65c; 3 lbs., $1.65; 5 lbs.,

PURE SEED! 
YELLOW SWEET CLOVER 
(Biennial Melilotus Officinalis) 
The Yellow Blossom type is very similar to 
that of the White Blossom. For those who wish 
to use sweet clover for pasture, hay and bee 
purposes, we would advise the use of the 
Yellow Blossom type. Sow 15 to 25 pounds per 
acre. Postpaid, 1 lb., 40c; 5 lbs., $1.60; 10 lbs., 
$3.00. 
PERSIAN CLOVER 
(Perennial) 
A marvelous new Clover that should be 
planted on every pasture in the South. Fur 
nishes splendid grazing from early spring until 
June. Will carry 4 to 6 head of cattle per acre 
throughout the entire growing season. Yields 
2 to 3 tons of rich, palatable hay per acre. 
Cures very quickly. An excellent soil builder. 
Reseeds itself even when closely grazed and 
spreads rapidly. Grows 2 to 3 feet high, bears 
small pink flowers and seeds heavily. Will 
stand heavier, wetter lands than most Clovers. 
Persian Clover grows well in mixtures, and 
is often planted with White Dutch, Bermuda 
and Dallis Grass. It has a deeper root system 
than White Dutch and requires less moisture 
for its success. It grows equally well on clay 
or loamy soils, other conditions being favor- 
able. Sow 6 to 8 pounds per acre. Postpaid, 1 
Ib., 75c; 3 lbs., $1.95: 5 lbs.. $3.00. 
ALSIKE CLOVER 
(Biennial) 
Alsike has about the same length of life as 
Red Clover and is less subject to disease. It 
requires less lime than Red Clover and is ex- 
ceptionally adapted to moisture or wet soils. 
The hay is of superior quality and fits in well 
in all pastures with Red Top, Orchard and 
other grasses. It is very resistant to cold 
weather, rarely winter killing. Alsike does 
well in shady places, something to be remem- 
bered. Sow 6 to 8 pounds per acre. Postpaid, 1 
Ib., 65c; 3 lIbs., $1.65; 5 lbs., $2.50. 
HOP CLOVER (YELLOW) 
(Annual) 
This is probably the earliest clover out in 
the spring and lasts until mid-summer when 
Bermuda grass and lespedeza take up the job 
of furnishing pasturage, It has a yellow flower 
appearing in late summer, but otherwise re- 
sembles lespedeza in general appearance. It 
grows about 6 to 8 inches high and seems to 
thrive best of all on clays and loams that are 
not constantly wet, very valuable in all pas- 
tures, combines well with other crops. Sow | 
to 3 lbs. per acre in your pasture mixture. Post- 
paid, lb., 75c; 3 lbs., $1.95; 5 lIbs., $3.00.
