Alfalfa or Lu cerne (Medicago Sativa). One can hardly estimate the value of Alfalfa where it succeeds, as the yield per acre each 
* season is generally four or five cutttings of about two tons each. The hay is remarkably palatable and the 
feeding value has been scientifically estimated to be worth nearly twice that of the very best Timothy. Droughts which would either destroy 
or quite stop the growth of ordinary plants have no effect upon Alfalfa, as its roots penetrate to astonishing depths in search of moisture, 
and the effect upon the land is highly beneficial. Alfalfa can be sown in either fall or spring. The cleaner the ground, the better the stand 
will be, as young Alfalfa is so slender and delicate that it is easily smothered by weeds. Sow 
on deep, well-drained, good loamy land. Alfalfa will not grow on acid soils, and to correct this 
condition, spread 1 to 11% tons of finely ground lime to the acre after plowing, and a few weeks 
before sowing. Cutting should be done always as blooming begins. Bu., 60 lbs. Sow 30 to 40 
Ibs. to the acre. Lb., 45c; 5 Ibs., $2.00; 10 lbs., $3.75, postpaid. 
Alsike (Trifolium Hybridum). A very hardy variety and will withstand extremes of heat, 
* drought and cold better than any other clover. Owing to its tendency of lying 
down on the ground and its somewhat bitter taste, it should always be sown in mixture with 
other clovers and grasses. Does well on soil which is too acid or moist for other clovers. 
Bu. 60 lbs. Sow 12 lbs. to the acre. Lb., 40c; 5 lbs., $1.75; 10 lbs., $3.25, postpaid. 
per bu. of 20 lbs., delivered. 
Crimson (Trifolium Incarnatum). This valuable annual variety grows from 1% to 3 
* feet high, and has long cone-shaped, dark red blossoms. The stem is smaller 
than that of Red Clover and is apt to fall over unless supported by Rye or some stronger 
plant. Sowing is begun during the last of July and continues until the last of October. 
Farther south it can be sown later. A common practice is to sow the seeds in furrows of corn 
and cotton fields at the time of the last cultivation. A mixture of Rye and Clover makes a 
good winter pasture. Bu. 60 lbs. Sow 20 lbs. to the acre. Lb., 25c; 5 lbs., $1.10; 10 Ibs., $2.00, 
postpaid. 
BI a ck M e di Cc This clover has a beautiful dark green color, does well on most soils, and 
* grows vigorously during cold weather. An excellent cover and soil 
improving legume, maturing a little later than Crimson Clover. Mixed with Lespedeza, makes 
a good winter or early spring grazing or hay, as it is relished by all livestock. 1 bu., 60 lbs. 
Sow 15 lbs. to the acre. Lb., 35c; 5 lbs., $1.50; 10 lbs., $2.75, postpaid.
