In describing to you what makes a hardy strain of Red Clover we can do no better than 
quote from a bulletin by Dr. Wiggins, of the New York State College of Agriculture, which says: 
“If red clover is grown in a region of severe winters with little snow and with much thawing and 
freezing in the spring, only hardy plants will survive, and if seed is grown from such plants year 
after year a strain resistant to such conditions will develop. Seed produced under less severe 
conditions should be used only when better adapted seed is not available. Too much emphasis 
cannot be placed on the importance of knowing the origin of seed used in the production of red 
clover.’’ This is the exact condition under which our seed is grown. 
Seed having been grown for many years in Canada or one of the Canadian border states 
should be adapted to our use. Dr. Wiggans rates clover grown in Michigan 100% winter hardy 
for New York. Seed from the corn belt of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, lowa or the state of Oregon 
is not too well adapted to stand our rugged climate. Their soil is too rich and they are too far 
south; but these are just the states from which clover seed has been obtained in years past. 
Most so called Northern grown seed comes from these states and is poorly adapted to the north- 
east. 
YOUR LEGUME IS THE MOST IMPORTANT CROP ON YOUR FARM 
Write and ask Dr. R. G. Wiggans or Prof. H. B. Hartwig of the N. Y. State College of Agri- 
culture, Ithaca, N. Y., if the clover seed we list is not the kind you should sow. It is cheaper 
this vear than most ordinary kinds. Less of our seed is needed to get a stand.
