Western Clovers 
CLEANED 
TESTED 

Mammoth 
Clovers, being leguminous crops, are soil build- 
ers, and are very useful for the farm or ranch. 
They are used for mixtures of hay and pasture as 
well as sown alone. 
YELLOW BLOSSOM SWEET CLOVER (Melilotus 
officinalis). Like White Blossom Sweet Clover 
this will grow on almost any kind of soil. It is 
semi-dwarf in habit, very drought-resistant, and 
is very desirable for forage, hay, and pasture. 
Melilotus officinalis is a biennial. 
Prices: (Ib. 25c) (5 Ibs. $1.20) (10 lbs. $2.10) not 
postpaid. 
TALL SWEET CLOVER (Melilotus alba), also 
known as Bokhara Clover. It is a@ hardy 
biennial plant that will grow in all climates and 
with little regard to the character of the soil. 
Withstands extreme heat and cold, is quite 
drought-resistant, and will tolerate alkali. White 
Blossom Sweet Clover has value as a forage crop 
and hay crop and is very efficient as a soilage 
crop, and should be given consideration in crop 
rotations. — 
Prices: (Ib. 25c) (5 lbs. $1.20) (10 lbs. $2.10) not 
postpaid. 
LADINO CLOVER (Trifolium repens latum) is a 
giant white variety—a perennial of the creeping 
type and is not badly affected by freezing and 
thawing. It has good carrying capacity and is 
therefore desirable for pasture, doing well in 
mixtures with tall growing grasses. The seed 
is small and must be planted shallow in a firm , 
seed bed and may be sown either in the spring 
or fall. The growing season seems to be nine 
months. It is not subject to alfalfa diseases and 
is considered hardy up to 5,280 feet. 
four to six pounds per acre is gen- 
erally sufficient. 
Price: (Ib. $2.25) not postpaid. 
SPECIALLY PREPARED BULLETINS on 
most of the clovers available on request.

Red Clover 
MEDIUM RED CLOVER (Trifolium pratense) is sown 
at rate of 15 pounds per acre and may be seeded 
any time from April to October. Makes good hay 
and pasture and is adapted for planting with 
numerous grasses when ‘either hay or pasture 
is desired. 
Prices: (lb. 46c) (10 lbs. $4.50) not postpaid. 
MAMMOTH RED CLOVER is especially valuable 
for light, sandy soil for fertilizing purposes. It 
grows more luxuriously than Medium Red in the 
same length of time but only affords one cutting. 
It does make excellent grazing and good hay if 
cut when young, but if left too long it then be- 
comes thick and woody. Sow 8 to 10 pounds 
of seed to the acre. 
Prices: (Ib. 46c) (10 Ibs. $4.50) not postpaid. 
ALSIKE CLOVER (Trifolium hybridum) is undoubt 
edly the best high altitude clover for hay, being 
planted extensively throughout the Rocky Moun- 
tain regions at high altitude, where alfalfa winter- 
kills. The stems are thin, bearing a thick growth 
of leaves. It is a valuable forage crop sown 
alone or with timothy. 
Prices: (lb. 45c) (10 lbs. $4.30) not postpaid. 
STRAWBERRY CLOVER (Trifolium fragiferum) is a 
most important crop for converting seepy, alkaline 
soils into income-producing pasture. It is one of 
the best pasturage plants for the conditions under 
which it thrives but is not a hay plant. It is a 
perennial and may be propagated from seed or 
by its creeping stems or runners. Grows very 
dense, spreads rapidly and tends to crowd out 
all other forms of vegetation. Strawberry Clover 
kes “wet feet.” It has been found making good 
growth with most of the vegetative parts sub- 
merged in water. Rate of seeding 
varies from 2 to 6 pounds per acre. 
Price: (Ib. $2.25) not postpaid.
