OLDS’ SWEET CLOVERS 

Grundy County White Blossom 
Grundy County Sweet Clover has several 
outstanding advantages. First, it is three 
weeks earlier than the common sweet clover. 
Thus the seed ripens ahead of most weeds, 
Second, while it grows to a good height and 
makes a good hay crop it is not as tall as 
the common and is much more easily han- 
dled. Third, it is finer and more leafy thar 
the common and branches thickly about a 
foot above the ground. Fourth, it yields more 
seed than the common, several farms in 
Grundy County producing as high as 8 to 
15 bushels per acre.

WACONIA ORANGE SORGHUM CANE. 
Waconia Orange Cane has been recently developed by selected breeding 
over a period of four or five years and it is a great improvement over 
the old strain of Amber cane. It has a stronger germinating seed, better 
withstanding unfavorable growing conditions, grows a much heavier but 
shorter stalk, withstands storms and wet weather without lodging and 
most important of all in running tests produces a better quality of syrup 
and more of it per acre. Sow 4 to 8 pounds of seed to the acre for 
sorghum and 15 to 25 pounds for fodder.

ROX ORANGE. A new variety of sweet sorghum that has been 
bred to overcome some of the disadvantages of Early Black Amber. It 
is a medium early maturing kind, originated by the Wisconsin College 
of Agriculture Experiment Station. While developed for a syrup sor- 
ghum, it is also found the best variety for silage. Its advantages over 
the Early Amber are its thicker stalk, easier to strip, easier to thresh, 
stands up better without lodging and will produce a higher yield of 
Syrup, averaging about 80 gallons of syrup per acre. Most seasons 
will produce ripe seed in Central and Southern Wisconsin, Prices: By

(The Great Soil Builder and Hay Crop.) 
Sweet Clover should be planted for 3 reasons: : 
First—A Great Pasture Crop. When the ordinary blue grass pastures 
dry up in midsummer, Sweet Clover keeps right on growing and fur- 
nishes wonderful pasture right through the drouth period, ; 
Cows on Sweet Clover produce a splendid flow of milk. It will gen- 
erally pasture a thousand-pound cow per acre for a period of about 4 
a acr nw oudeetiil Soil Builder. Sweet Clover is an excellent crop 
for building up worn-out soils. It grows faster than red clover or 
alfalfa and larger and the roots penetrate deeper into tives +s OU Wier eceaiees 
Third—A Valuable Hay Crop. While not quite equal to Alfalfa “it 
makes good hay if cut at the right time and_ cattle will eat | it.0,"The 
Grundy County and the Albotrea are the best for hay. : 
CULTURE—Sweet Clover is best sown in the spring with one bushel 
of extra early oats or barley per acre aS nurse Crop. It can also be sown 
successfully in June or July without a nurse crop or in corn at the last 
cultivation, Fifteen Pounds of Seed per Acre is usually sufficient 
a little less for Grundy County as the seed is smaller. Tnoculate the 
seed before sowing with Nitragin or Nod-O-Gen. Use lime if your soil 
is sour, Most any well-drained soil is all right for Sweet Clover. :
