CLOVERS (Continued) 
WHITE BLOSSOM CLOVER 
(Melilotus Alba) —Also called White Melilot and Honey Clover. A biennial clover com- 
ing into prominence as a forage crop and soil builder. Succeeds in places where alfalfa 
does not, resists both heat and cold; its large tap root penetrates stiff clays; its feeding . 
value is about the same as that of alfalfa. Sow 20 pounds per acre on a very firm 4 
seed bed. 1 Ib. 32¢, 10 Ibs. $2.40. a 
ALSIKE or SWEDISH CLOVER 
(Trifolium hybridum)—A fine perennial clover adapted to moist or wet lands in the 
cooler parts of California. Well adapted for pastures and meadows in mountainous areas. 
Considerably more drought-resistant than Ladino. Blossoms of Alsike valuable for bees. 
Sow 4 to 6 pounds per acre. 1 Ib. 52¢, 10 Ibs. $4.40. 
RED CLOVER 
(Trifolium pratense)—Sown in combination with timothy for excellent quality hay. Fine 
particularly for dairy cows and livestock. Best suited for regions with abundant rainfall 
and without extreme summer and winter temperatures. Does best on the heavier types of 
soil which are deep, well-drained, and productive. When planted alone, sow 12-15 Ibs. 
per acre. When planted witn Timothy sow 8-10 pounds of clover to 2-5 pounds of 
Timothy to the acre. 1 Ib. 55c¢, 10 Ibs. $4.70. 
SUBTERRANEAN CLOVER 
An annual clover similar in growth and climatic tolerances to Bur Clover. Derives its 
name from habit of seed-stalks turning downward to push seed heads in the earth. For 
acid soils. Seed 10-12 pounds per acre. 1 Ib. $1.15, 10 Ibs. $10.25. 
BURNETT 
Burnett is a perennial herb of great hardiness and prolific growing habit, yielding a heavy 
crop of green leaves highly palatable to stock. Burnett stays green the year around, and 
under favorable conditions reaches 2 feet. Sow 15-20 pounds per acre. 1 Ib. 85c¢, 10 
Ibs. $8.20. 
Ibs. $2.40.

YELLOW BLOSSOM CLOVER 
(Melilotus Officinalis) —A biennial variety of Yellow Blossom Sweet Clover, finer 
stemmed and more leafy than Melilotus Alba. Used the same as above. 1 Ib. 32c, 10 
(Trigonella foenum-graceum)—A clover-like plant popular as a soil improvement crop. 
Prefers a medium textured soil of good drainage. Plant in the fall months up to the 
middle of December, following the harvesting of such crops as sugar beets, tomatoes, 
etc. Hardy, makes considerable growth during winter months when many other green 
manure crops are at a standstill. Produces succulent vigorous growth; plow under about — 
April of the following spring. Develops a deep penetrating root system covered with nitro- 
gen fixing nodules. Sow 30 pounds per acre.

fo eee Ge 
A European legume which has shown fine adaptability on the Pacific Coast, where in seedings with pasture grasses it has 
helped round out a.succession of pasture feeding for livestock. A deep-rooted, long-lived perennial, especially fine in 
the salt marsh areas of the coast, and promising in mountain areas where it will establish itself over ferns, etc., and 
gradually cover the ground, grow over stumps, etc., furnish an excellent feed for sheep and cows. The demand for this 
clover is increasing each year because of these advantages. Sow 3-4 pounds per acre. 
@® Adapted for use on lowlands with some alkali. 
@® Makes a fine crop for pasture. Livestock is very fond of it. 
@ Livestock men prefer it to some clovers because it does not seem to cause bloat. 
@ It is a legume and builds up soil. Its use on otherwise worthless land increases land values. 

DWARF ESSEX RAPE 
An excellent pasture crop for hogs, sheep and cattle, or 
as a green feed for chickens. Thrives on all soils and is 
ready for use in 6 to 8 weeks after sowing. Requires cool 
moist growing weather; plant in fall or early spring. A 
gross feeder that can be used on recently drained swamp 
lands or newly cleared areas. Sow 10-12 pounds per acre 
broadcast. 1 Ib. 40c, 10 Ibs. $3.50. 
DOUBLE DWARF MILO 
A new strain of Double Dwarf Milo recently released by 
the California Agricultural Experiment Station, bred re- 
sistant to the pythium root-rot disease. 
Resistant Double Dwarf Milo has been bred resistant to 
this disease and will grow luxuriantly on heavi-y infested 
soil. The new strain is similar in all characteristics to the 
common Double Dwarf Milo, except having the added re- 
sistance of not being susceptible to the root-rot disease. 
All acreages devoted to this crop shou!d now be planted 
with this new resistant strain of Double Dwarf Milo. Sow 
6-8 pounds in close rows. 
RESISTANT DOUBLE DWARF MILO—Lb. 35c, 10 Ibs. 
$3.00, 50 Ibs. $6.00. 
SOYA BEAN 
One of today’s most talked of crops. Originally a green 
manure crop, now a source of food higher in vitamin con- 
tent than any similar product. Sow 50-60 pounds per 
acre. When planted in rows for seed plant 10-12 pounds 
per acre. 1 Ib. 45c¢, 10 Ibs. $3.20. 
VETCH 
PURPLE VETCH 
This variety, though successful in our interior valley sec- 
tions, is best adapted to the coastal regions, where it 
has proved thoroughly dependable. There it produces larger 
yields than Common Vetch and, though less winter hardy, 
shows better growth during the winter period. Purple Vetch 
is very palatable for all livestock as pasture or hay, and 
has a high feed value. Sow 50 pounds per acre. 1 Ib. 35c, 
10 Ibs. $3.00, 50 Ibs. $6.00. 
WILLAMETTE VETCH 
(IMPROVED COMMON). Adapted to a wide range of soils 
and climates, requiring only good soil drainage. This va- 
riety, too, should be fall planted, and will stand tempera- 
tures below freezing. May be planted alone for livestock 
pasture, or with oats, rye or barley for hay crops. Harvest- 
ing should be completed in spring before hot weather. 
Sow 50 pounds per acre. .1 Ib. 35c¢, 10 Ibs. $3.00, 50 Ibs. 
$6.00. 
NOTE: We pay transportation on seed orders up to 25 pounds. 
1 Ib. $2.50, 10 Ibs. $24.25. 
ARM SEEDS 
FAVA BEANS 
A fine cover crop on heavy types of soil. Makes vigor- 
ous tall growth for ploughing under, and roots are covered 
with bacterial nodules. Plant in fall or early winter months 
at the rate of 60 pounds per acre. Is ready to plough un- 
ae any time in spring. 1 Ib. 45¢, 10 Ibs. $3.20, 100 Ibs. 
$16.00. 
FIELD CORN 
KING PHILLIP. A hard yellow flint corn, more drought 
resistant than other varieties. In all our years of testing 
to find the perfect field corn, King Phillip is the variety 
to which we always return. Early maturing and a fine 
all-purpose variety. Plant 12 pounds per acre in rows. 
1 Ib. 35c, 10 Ibs. $3.00, 50 Ibs. $6.00.

FIELD PEAS > 
AUSTRIAN WINTER PEAS 
(Pisum arvense)—The most winter hardy of all field peas. _ 
Prefers clay or clay loams, but will succeed on most types 
of soil providing drainage is adequate. Does well in com 
bination with oats, rye, or barley which act as a support 
ing crop. Growth is slow during the cold months; rapid — 
growth is made in spring weather. The most promising 
Ha pea ne hay production in California. Excellent for 
asture and cover crop purposes. 1 Ib. 35¢, 10 Ibs. $3.00 
50 Ibs. $6.00. Sow 50-60 pounds per acre. : = 
CANADIAN FIELD PEAS ¢ 
Another variety of Pisum arvense suitable for same c 
ditions as Austrian Winter Peas. Less winter hardy, nc 
ever, than the latter. The main advantage over the Austria 
Winter Pea is its better growth during fall and win’ 
months and earlier maturity in spring. Very difficult to 
cure as a hay crop, so use as either a spring pasture cro| 
or an early maturing cover crop for soil improvemen 
where early spring planting is required of the crop t 
follow. 1 Ib. 35c, 10 Ibs. $3.00, 50 Ibs. $6.00. Sow 7:
