ket price down somewhat. 
Sweet Clover 
White Blossom 
BOKHARA (Melilotus alba). This legume is na- 
tive to all parts of this country and is the most 
beneficial of all crops for building up worn-out 
land. Thrives on all soils, but like all Glovers 
requires lime, which should be supplied on land 
where it is lacking. Makes fine pasture for bees 
and good quality of hay relished by all stock. 
Does best when seeded alone. Sow in spring or 
fall. Twenty to thirty pounds are required per 
acre. (Can also furnish yellow blossom if de- 
MILLET 
GOLDEN or LIBERTY MILLET. Is decidedly 
one of the best varieties to grow fora hay crop;

height from 4%4 to 6 feet., according to strength 
of soil. Can be cut green or made into hay, and 
is readily eaten by stock, 
It requires 1 bushel 
to SOW an acre broadcast.

ALFALFA 
The Profitable and Nutritious Hay Crop 
Alfalfa or Lucerne will produce from 5 
to 7 tons of hay an acre each year in the 
South. Lime should be applied at the rate 
of 1500 pounds to the acre. Before sowing 
the seed it will be best to inoculate them, 
if Alfalfa has never been grown on the soil 
you are to sow. 
CANADIAN VARIEGATED ALFALFA. 
Originated in Welland County, Ontario, 
about 17 years ago. It is described by 
Dr. Zavitz, of the Ontario Agricultural 
College, as an exceptionally hardy strain 
of Alfalfa. He reports that in an experi- 
ment extending over a period of 10 years, 
Canadian Variegated proved hardier than 
Grimm or Baltic. The New York Experi- 
ment Station reports Canadian Variegated 
just as hardy and just as high yielding 
as any strain of Grimm Alfalfa. We have 
the genuine stock to offer, Canadian 
grown, at lower prizes even than Mon- 
tana common. 
GRIMM ALFALFA. (Ohio-grown.) May 
usually be distinguished from common 
Alfalfa, first by the fact that the blos= 
soms are usually, not always, variegated 
in color, yellow, green, blue, brown, ete., 
instead of all purple. Second, by the 
branching root system instead of the 
long, straight tap root of the common 
Alfalfa. This enables it to withstand the 
hard winters, the tap root of the common 
Alfalfa often being broken by heavy 
freezing. 
The seed is 
A very 


40 ALLEN'S 
long-eared, 12-14-16 row, light shade of yellow 
Corn, short, round kernel, and should mature 
for silo purposes in 100 days. Fodder grows up 
10-12-14 feet high, full of leaves, and there is 
no doubt but what it is one of the best ensilage 
Corns in cultivation today for Northern Ohio. 
It should give some grain in the ensilage in a 
normal season.

ting good Northern seed.
