Current prices on application. 
True Southern or Tennessee Millet. Equal in 
quality to any of the other millets and far superior 
in yield to the Common or Golden, growing from 
three to five feet high, with abundant foliage, and 
terminating with large seed heads, formed by 
numerous panicles of small round, bright golden 
yellow seeds. 
Japanese or Barn Yard. (Billion Dollar Grass). 
Forage plant of great value, growing luxuriantly 
on most any soil and under indiffernt conditions. 
It will grow in seasons of extreme drought and 
attain a height of six feet. When cut continues to 
grow until frost. 
Clover 
Current prices on application. 
Alsike or Hybrid Clover. (Trifolium Hybridum). 
Even poorly drained lands will produce a good 
crop of this; perennial and very hardy. It is very 
valuable both for pasturing and soiling; very pro- 
ductive, sweet and fragrant. The flowers are a dis- 
tinct light pink, and much liked by bees. 
Crimson Trefoil or Scarlet Italian Clover. (Tri- 
folium Incarnatum). An annual, valuable as a cover 
crop, soil improver or for fodder; attains a height 
of eighteen inches with pointed bright crimson 
blossoms. It is not reliably hardy north of Phila- 
delphia. 
White Clover. (Trifolium Repens). Thrives best 
in damp locations, and while not a heavy producer, 
it is valuable in permanent pastures. In connection 
with Blue Grass it affords the most nutritious food 
for sheep and cattle, and also makes a fine addition 
to mixture for lawns. Choice, (high test seed). 
Per oz., 10c.; %-lb., 40c.; lb., $1.40; 25 lbs. and over,

Ladino Clover. A perennial, very large species 
of White Clover, 15 to 24 inches tall. Ladino, usually 
sown with other grasses at the rate of two pounds 
per acre, furnishes considerably more and better 
pasture. 
Sweet Clover. (Melilotus Albi). Valuable bien- 
nial, thrives almost anywhere except on acid soils. 
One of the greatest plants known for soil improve- 
ment: feed value equal to alfalfa; used extensively 
by bee-keepers. Sow at rate of 18 to 20 lbs. per 
acre; April or August usually most satisfactory. 
Red Clover, Medium. (Trifolium Pratense). The 
common variety, used with other grasses for either 
pasture or meadow. Domestic northern grown seed 
99.25% pure or better. 
Alfalfa. (Medicago Sativa). Very productive, 
succeeds in any good soil that is well drained and 
not acid; lasts for a number of years. It thrives on 
dry, rich sandy soil, producing three or four cuttings 
annually, and even in seasons of severe drought it is 
always fresh and green, because the roots extend 
so deep into the soil. It grows two to three feet 
high, with purple blossoms. Hardiness and purity 
are of more importance when buying alfalfa seed 
than a slight difference in price. Sow 18 lbs. per 
acre. Write for market price. 
Grimm Alfalfa. This is the very hardy variety 
which has given such satisfaction in our northeast- 
ern states. We exercise great care to have the. 
genuine, and usually have State-sealed grades.
