Sweet Clover Seed Limited 
There are a number of factors that have reduced the 
supply of sweet clover seed below that of normal years. 
Untavorable weather conditions which cut the formation 
.of seed. Plowing under large acreages of sweet clover 
in the principal seed producing sections. This was done 
because the soil building benefits were greater than the 
profit from limited seed crops. We have good supplies 
with which to start the season and our prices are below 
ceiling. You can get excellent value in sweet clover 
seed at Berry’s this year. 
Sow early spring like Red Clover. Use' 12 to‘15 Ibs. 
per acre. Have a firm seed bed and cover lightly.

A Great Cash Crop—Heavy Seed Producer 
The Most Palatable Sweet Clover 
Here is an entirely new variety of sweet clover. A clover that 
we believe is destined to rapidly replace other sweet clovers be- 
cause it has so many valuable characteristics. The demand for 
the seed will be tremendous. Get in on the big money by grow- 
ing a seed crop this year. 
A Big Cash Income 
One Iowa farmer sowed 15 pounds on 4 acres and harvested 
1250 Ibs. of seed last fall. Another got 360 Ibs. from two 
acres and still another 25 bushels or 1500 lbs. from 2% 
acres. That is 10 bushels per acre. This was from seeds 
planted in rows, 
This clover ripens seed more evenly than other sweet 
clover and the seed hangs on to the plant. Very little 
loss from shattering. In the fall there are practically 
no leaves or blossoms but all seed. 
Characteristics 
It is an annual like Hubam, making its full growth, 
blooming and bearing seed the same year it is sown. It 
is slightly later than Hubam. -It is leafier and has finer 
stems. The crop is very palatable. It is not as bitter 
as most sweet clover. Makes a fine pasture after small 
grain in August, September, when two-year-old sweet 
clovers are dried up. It is an excellent soil builder. 
Its roots are thick and fleshy, very much like the two- 
year sweet clovers. These roots go down about 4 feet. 
How to Make Money 
Its value for fall pasture and for fall plowing of the 
clover for fertilizer will be more common when seed is 
more plentiful and cheaper. Now is the time to cash in 
on it as a seed crop. Sow with small grain using 6 to 8 
pounds per acre. The seed is smaller than other sweet 
clover. Or plant in rows with a corn planter fitted with 
drill plates using about 2 Ibs. per acre. Be sure you have 
a firm seed bed. Pack with a roller if possible after 
seeding. Do not cover over 1 inch. If in rows cultivate 
as soon as you can see the rows and keep it clean. In- 
oculate your seed with Sweet Clover Inoculation. ' Har- 
vest when top seed is fully matured. 
Unfortunately our seed acreages of this year nearly all 
had a little volunteer Hubam Annual White Sweet Clover 
in them so there will be a little mixture of white but it 
pies otherwise be all high quality annual (one year) sweet 
clover. "
