CLOVER SEED 
Prices given on Special Yellow list, 
MEDIUM RED CLOVER. ‘This is the recognized standard of the 
clover family. It produces two crops each year. The first is gen- 
eraliy harvested for hay when in full bloom. The second crop may 
be harvested for seed, cut for hay, or plowed under for fertilizer. 
Sow 6 to 12 pounds to the acre. 
ALSIKE OR SWEDISH CLOVER. One of the hardiest varieties 
known. It is perennial and does not winterkill. It will do better 
on moist land than any other variety of clover, and is suitable for 
either hay or pasture. When sown with other grasses, it forms a 
thick undergrowth and greatly increases the yield. It is frequently 
sown both with medium Red Clover and with Timothy, and the qual- 
ity of hay thus produced is excellent. It is fine stemmed and leafy: 
and quickly cured. 
MAMMOTH RED CLOVER. This variety is grown mostly for pas- 
ture and for soiling. It is a very vigorous grower, but is not desir- 
able for hay unless cut when quite young. 
WHITE OR DUTCH CLOVER. A low close growing clover, with 
round white heads. Very fragrant and desirable for beautifying 
the lawn. It will stand close cutting and very rapidly throws up 
an abundance of leaves and blossoms. It is usually better to sow 
with other grasses. Does well on most any soil. 
SWEET CLOVER, YELLOW BLOSSOM. This variety grows -finer 
and more spreading than the white and is not so tall. It matures 
more quickly than the White Clover and for a second season the 
hay crop is probably preferable to White Sweet Clover because of 
| GRASSES 
Prices given on Special Yellow list. 
KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS. Will outlive any other grasses for 
pasture or lawn, but should not be cut or pastured too closely in ex- 
tremely hot, dry weather. The Seed is very slow in germinating, 
therefore, it is advisable to plant with other varieties of quicker 
growing habits. Makes a sweet and nutritious pasture for all stock. 
RYE GRASS, ANNUAL. Is a very quick growing grass and for 
that reason makes an excellent pasture. It thrives on rich, moist 
land, where from three to four cuttings may be made in a season. 
Grows very quickly and will stand close pasturage. 
RED*"JOP. As a hay crop, Red Top is next to Timothy in impor- 
tance. It will do the best on rather moist soil, but will thrive on 
most any soil. It is a good variety to sow with Timothy or Clover 
for meadow or pasture, and is more permanent than either of the 
other two. 
CRESTED WHEAT GRASS. Recommended highly by farm au- 
thorities as being one of the most drought-resistant grasses. Grows 
fast in cool weather, but is more or less dormant in extreme hot 
weather. When used for pasture, no amount of abuse seems to 
stop its growth. For hay and pasture, compares favorably with 
Bromus Inermis. Sow at rate of 12 lbs. to the acre. 
MEADOW FESCUE. Especially suited for pasture and is also fine 
for hay. Succeeds even in poor soil and will endure severe freezing. 
The hay is very nutritious and cattle thrive on it. 
ORCHARD GRASS. Is an early fibrous rooted 
rapid growth makes it very desirable for pasture. 
droughts better than most grasses. Will thrive in the 
perennial. Its

as in orchards and lanes. When closely cropped, it grows up 
quickly again.

CHEWINGS FESCUE. A fine leaved perennial, somewhat wiry 
bright green color. Does well in shade. Germinates in 10 to 14 days 
Used for lawns in shaded areas and pastures. 
CREEPING RED FESCUE. Similar to Chewings Fescue but does 
not tend to bunch. It spreads by underground runners. It’s a hardy 
perennial, germinating in 10 to 14 days. Use for law} fairways 
pastures.
