ALFALFA 
Sow 1S to 22 Pounds to the Acre 
Alfalfa produces a hay crop of from 3 
to 10 tons per acre, a valuable seed crop, 
and enriches the soil. 
It will thrive.on almost every soil except 
a wet one. 
Alfalfa is sown in spring or fall. Seed 
bed must be carefully and thoroughly pre- 
pared, should be firm, moist and surface 
loose, mellow and finely pulverized. The 
entire field should be made. as smooth as 
possible. : CLOVER

Culture. Sow Clover Seed during late 
winter or early spring—when the soil is 
honeycombed by frost. Clover is usually 
sown to land previously seeded with a 
grain crop. Thus no special land prepara- 
tion is necessary. With grain crop re- 
moved, and Clover already started, growth 
is rapid and sure. 
YELLOW BLOSSOM SWEET CLOVER 
This is also a biennial and preferred by 
some people on account of its earliness. It 
is about two weeks earlier than the white,

with the annual Yellow Blossom which is 
of very little value.

than Red Clover.
