(Bu. 45 1bs.)—Sow 10 to 12 lbs. per acre. This is by far the best and cheapest seeding. On low bottom, moist 
soils where other grasses fail, this will give you perfect satisfaction and on upland it’s amazing the tonnage of

AN EARLY DROUGHT-RESISTANT 
SOIL-BUILDER 
Does Especially Well in High Altitudes. Greatest 
Annual Pasture or Hay Crop Ever Introduced. 
The abundant growth and deep penetrating roots 
covered with nodules make it an outstanding grazing 
and soil-building legume. The strong root growth 
penetrates about 8 inches deep, making it highly 
drought-resistant, and-thrives on poor, wornout soils 
where alfalfa and clovers would fail, In feeding 
value it is about equal to alfalfa; has no woody 
stem; holds its leaves well and produces a full crop 
the first season. A harrowing before sowing is the 
only preparation necessary. Postpaid, % Ib., 35e;

spring and gives at least 3 cuttings a season with as
