STERLING'S ANNUAL CATALOG 13 
GRASS, CLOVER AND ALFALFA SEED 
Prices liable to change without notice. 
Terms strictly cash. 
I make my prices just as reasonable as is possible consistent with 
the quality. It is the very last fraction of 1% in purity that costs 
money. I believe that it pays big returns, too, as it is truer in seeds 
than in anything else that “the best is none too good.” 
In sowing Timothy alone without Clover, use 15 to 20 lbs. to the 
acre. If your land is sour and Grass and Clover does not do well as a 
rule, a little lime sown on top of the ground and harrowed in before 
sowing the seed would be a great help. 
All our Clover and Alfalfa Seed grown in the Northwest U.S. A.
