THE ROCKY MOUNTAIN SEED CO._ -:- 
Clovers 
ALSIKE OR SWEDISH CLOVER—Grows well on 
low, wet land where Red Clover does not thrive. 
Alsjke being a perennial, will last for a good many 
years, either for hay or in pasture. It makes fine 
hay of high feeding value. It is very valuable in 
pastures, especially on wet or heavy soil. Sow 6 
to 10 pounds of seed per acre if used alone. 
Postpaid (lb. 70c) (10 Ibs. $6.50). Larger quantities 
quoted on request. 
LESPEDEZA (Korean Clover)—Lespedeza grows on 
poor soils and increases the fertility as well as 
improves the physical condition of the soil. It is 
an annual but will reseed itself each year so that 
only one sowing is necessary for a permanent 
pasture. For pasture about 8 pounds of seed is 
required per acre. On tilled land for hay or for a 
seed crop 10 to 12 pounds per acre should be sown. 
Korean Lespedeza is palatable to all classes of 
live stock, particularly cattle. 
Postpaid (lb. 40c) (5 lbs. $1.75) (10 Ibs. $3.00). 
MEDIUM RED CLOVER—Fits better into crop rota- 
tion than any other legume. It will increase the 
yield of succeeding crops besides furnishing many 
tons of hay of high protein content. It is a bi- 
ennial which means that it will grow for two sea- 
sons only and then must be reseeded. Requires 
medium rich well drained soil. Sow 8 to 12 lbs. 
per acre. 
Postpaid (lb. 7O0c) (10 Ibs. $6.50). 
MAMMOTH RED CLOVER—Resembles Medium Red 
Clover but grows taller and the hay is coarser. It 
is hardy and valuable for fertilizing poor soil. 
Sow 8 to 12 lbs. per acre. 
Postpaid (1b. 70c) (10 Ibs. $6.50). 
STRAWBERRY CLOVER (Trifolium Fragiferum)— 
Is primarily a pasture crop. It thrives on wet, 
seepy ground, which may be crusty with alkali and 
is apparently more resistant to alkali than any 
other clover. It is capable of spreading and es- 
tablishing itself by its stout creeping runners. 
Three to five pounds will seed an acre. 
Postpaid (lb. $2.50). Supply Limited. 
LADINO CLOVER—Is regarded as a tall form of 
White Dutch Clover. It is a low growing, leafy 
plant with succulent and somewhat coarse stems. 
Sow in the spring or fall, sow 7 to 8 pounds per 
acre. 
Postpaid (lb. $2.25) (10 Ibs. $21.50). 
Seed Grains 
Wheat 
On irrigated lands, sow 60 to 75 pounds per acre; on dry 
land, 40 to 50 pounds. 
MARQUIS—It is a very early, beardless, hard red 
spring wheat, very productive. It has higher 
nfilling and baking qualities than mfost varieties of 
spring wheat known today and will almost always 
grade No. 1. Besides being about ten days earlier 
than most varieties of spring wheat it generally 
outyields them and has been known to produce 
45 to 60 bushels per acre. As it is short stiff 
strawed, it is not likely to lodge and stands up 
well under irrigated conditions. The grain is plump 
and of a dark red appearance. 
THATCHER—A new beardiless, hard red spring 
wheat, developed in Minnesota. Rust resistant and 
equal in milling and baking qualities to Marquis. 
WINTER WHEAT—For Fall seeding, a hard, bearded 
winter wheat. Very prolific and stands cold and 
drought well. :

Ibs. $2.00). 
DENVER, COLO. 55 
Barley 
On irrigated land, sow 60 to 90 pounds per acre; on dry 
land, 40 to 50 pounds. 
BEECHER—A senfi-smooth awned barley that has 
outyielded Club Mariout or Flynn over 25 per cent 
at the U. S. Dryland Station at Akron. Also shows 
a better bushel weight. Stiff strawed. Adapted to 
dryland conditions. 
LICO—This is a high yielding barley, very ntuch like 
Trebi except that it is smooth awned. 
TREBI—This is a six-rowed, bearded, hulled barley 
adapted to irrigated conditions. At the Fort Co- 
lins Experiment Station it outyielded all other 
barleys in a six-year test. Though it is a rough 
awned variety it has the advantage over coast 
barley in that the awns thresh free from the grain, 
thus eliminating considerable danger in feeding. 
BALD OR HULLESS—tThreshes out like wheat, is 
beardless and equal in feeding value to corn. It is 
early and will make a grain crop in high altitude, 
and is excellent if cut for hay. 
Prices on above varieties: 
Postpaid (5 Ibs. $1.00) (10 Ibs. $1.75). 
Oats 
On irrigated land, sow 60 to 90 pounds per acre; on dry 
land, 40 to 50 pounds. 
COLORADO 837—A mid-season white oat similar to 
Swedish Select, except for fewer awns, higher 
yield and stiffer straw. Adapted to the irrigated 
sections of northern Colorado and the cooler re- 
gions of other sections. 
BRUNKER—A very early uniform variety of drought 
evading, smut resistant red oat. Well adapted to 
the non-irrigated plains area and high altitudes. 
Yielded 60 per cent nfore than Colorado 37 at the 
U. S. Dryland Field Station over an eight year 
period. 
BLISS SIDE—A selection from White Russian Side 
Oats, which produces an abundant quantity of oat 
hay in the mountain areas. 
MARKTON—A mid-season oat with long, slender 
to nfid-plump, yellowish white kernel, particular- 
ly adapted to warmer irrigated sections and is 
rapidly finding a place in northern Colorado where 
it ig outyielding Colorado 37. 
VICTORY—Similar to Colorado 37 with heavier, taller 
straw. 
SWEDISH SELECT—A standard heavy yielding 
white oat. Hull is thin, kernel large and plump; 
straw is stiff and strong enough not to lodge. 
Prices on above varieties: 
Postpaid (5 Ibs. $1.00) (10 Ibs. $1.75). 
Rye 
On irrigated land, sow 60 to 80 pounds per acre; on dry 
land, 30 to 40 pounds. In ordering spring or fall rye, please 
note that we supply these spring or fall as they are supplied 
to us, but we cannot guarantee them to be such, as it is 
impossible to determine the variety from the appearance of 
the seed. 
FALL OR WINTER—This is the hardiest of any of 
the fall grains, and can be grown on a greater 
variety of soils. It will’ thrive in dry seasons 
and on light, sandy soils. It is grown for grain, 
for hay, for pasture and for plowing under for 
soiling purposes. There is no grain crop that 
produces as nfuch and as good pasture as fall rye. 
If sown in August, makes a fine fall and winter 
pasture. Fall rye may also be sown in the spring, 
when it makes splendid summer pasture as it will 
not go to seed as does the spring rye. 
Postpaid (5 Ibs. $1.25) (10 Ibs. $2.00).
