Sweet Clover 
White Blossom 
BOKHARA (Melilotus alba). This legume 
is native to all parts of this country and is 
the most beneficial crop for building up 
worn-out land. Thrives on all soils, but 
like other Clovers requires lime, which 
should be supplied where it is lacking. 
Makes fine pasture for bees and good 
quality of hay relished by all stock. Does 
best when seeded alone. Sow in spring or 
fall, 20 to 30 pounds to the acre. (Can 
also furnish yellow blossom if desired.)

application. 
ALLEN’S MEADOW MIXTURE. Price 
on application. 
KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS. Also known 
as June Grass. A valuable variety for 
lawns when mixed with other grasses, and 
especially valuable as a pasture grass. Sow 
about 3 bushels to the acre for pasture. 
(14 lbs. to the bushel.) 
ORCHARD GRASS. A valuable grass for 
pasture, for sowing in orchards or shady 
places. It grows rapidly and does not 
suffer from close feeding. When sown 
alone, 3 bushels should be sown to the 
acre. (14 lbs. to the bushel.) 
RED TOP GRASS. Grows well in all 
soils, especially moist ones. 
LESPEDEZA 
A legume that thrives on poor acid soil 
without lime. Plants are bushy and spread- 
ing, growing close to the ground. The leaves 
resemble clover but are much smaller. 
MILLET 
GOLDEN or LIBERTY. One of the best 
varieties to grow for hay. Produces a large 
crop of fine grass ranging in height from 
434 to 6 feet, according to strength of soil. 
Can be cut green or made into hay, and is 
readily eaten by stock. It requires 1 bushel 
to sow an acre broadcast.

bushels $32.50 
CLINTON. Has the stiffest straw and weighs 
out better than any other variety tested in 
Iowa. A medium-tall, early yellow Oat 
with plump kernels and thin hulls. Markedly 
superior to other varieties in wet years. 
Resists rust and blight. 
CANADA FIELD PEAS 
Canada Field Peas should be sown in 
April, weather permitting. They make large 
yields of most nutritious hay, cut either green 
or cured for hay. They should be sown 1 to 
1} bushels per acre, with 1 bushel spring 
oats. On account of their extreme hardiness, 
they can be sown earlier than any other 
legume crop, furnishing an excellent crop 
of hay or serving the purpose of a green 
fertilizer. :
