Sweet Clover 
The Greatest Soil Renovator, Hay and 
Pasture Crop. 
BOKHARA or SWEET CLOVER (Melilotus al- 
ba). A native of all parts of the United States 
and Canada. It is an erect branching biennial 
plant with woody stems growing the first sea- 
son 2 to 3 feet high and developing a large 
root. The second year’s growth usually reaches 
a height of 4 to 7 feet. 
Lb., 30c; 10 lbs. or more, 26c per Ib. 
Grass Seed Mixtures 
for Hay and 
Permanent Pasture 
The Worcester Special Mixtures of Grass 
Seed produce wonderful hay crops and pasture, 
maintaining their cropping qualities for years. 
PERMANENT PASTURE MIXTURE FOR ME- 
DIUM SOIL. Aside from permanency, an im- 
portant requisite is that of continual growth 
from early spring until fall, and as many va- 
rieties as possible should be used which bear 
constant tramping and continued close grazing. 
This mixture is prepared with these ends in 
view. Contains Ladino and White Dutch clo- 
vers. 30 pounds to the acre. 
Lb., 55c; 10 lbs. or more, 48c per lb. 
No. 1 GRASS SEED MIXTURE. For seeding 
down use 25 lbs. to the acre. Contains timothy, 
red top, medium red clover, and alsike clover. 
All domestic seed. 
Lhb., 35c; 10 1bs. or more, 30c per 1b.

CLOVERS 
Natural Sol Vinprovers 
Unereelled for 
Stock Feeding 
ALSIKE or SWEDISH CLOVER (Trifolium hybri- 
dum). One of the best for mixing with timothy; 
it is perfectly hardy in every climate or soil con- 
dition and seldom has to be reseeded. 
Lb., 65c; 10 lbs. or more, 60c per 1b. 
CRIMSON CLOVER (Trifolium incarnatum). This 
is used principally for soiling or green manuring, 
for which purposes it is highly valuable. If de- 
sired for feed, cut it just before it flowers. 
Lb., 45c; 10 lbs. or more, 40'c¢ per lb. 
LADINO CLOVER FOR LOW WET SOILS. It is 
an ideal pasture plant for cattle, sheep, hogs, 
etc. Should be sown in early spring or Septem- 
ber, using Oats, Timothy or Rye Grass, as a 
nurse crop. We recommend about 4 lbs. of La- 
dino Clover per acre. Price: $3.15 per lb. 
MAMMOTH RED CLOVER (Trifolium pratense 
perenne). Sometimes called Sapling or Pea Vine 
Clover and English Cow Grass. This differs from 
the “Medium,” being of a ranker growth and 
yielding more fodder per acre. 
MEDIUM RED CLOVER, AMERICAN GROWN (Trifolium pratense). 
More widely known and used than any other; used principally for 
hay purposes. Height from 18 inches to 24% feet. Sow early in the 
spring or in the late summer. Lb., '75c; 10 lbs. or more, 69c per 1b. 
WHITE DUTCH or LAWN CLOVER (Trifolium repens). This is valu- 
able for pasturage as well as for lawns; it succeeds where other 
clovers and grasses fail, and it seldom dies out. It can be sown at 
all seasons, although early spring is best. 
14 Ib., 40c; 1% Ib., 70c; lb., $1.35; 10 lbs. or more, $1.25 per lb. 

For Good Crops It Is Important to Plant 
Ross’ Selected Seeds 
Nod-O-Gen is a high quality humus 
culture of nitrogen-gathering bacteria 
containing all the essentials for healthy 
bacterial growth. Nod-O-Gen causes no- 
dules to develop on the roots of legume 
crops. These nodules gather nitrogen 
from the air and convert it into plant 
food, saving plant food in the soil. Full 
directions accompany each package. 
When ordering be sure to state what 
seed you wish to inoculate. Humus type
