WOOD'S ADAPTED ALFALFA SEED 
A GREAT COMBINATION FORAGE CROP 
AND SOIL BUILDER 
The King of All Hay Crops 
ALFALFA is one of the most valuable hay and pasture crops that can be 
seeded during both the spring and fall months. Stands for years, yielding 
several cuttings per season, and more nearly approaches perfection in forage 
crops than any other crop that can be produced. Can be grown with suc- 
cess on fertile, well drained soils having a fine, firm seed bed. Best perma- 
nent stands of alfalfa are generally cbtained on upland or well drained sec- 
ond bottom land. Should be fertilized with about 800 pounds of 4-12-12 to 
the acre, or if the soil has sufficient nitrogen, use the same amount of 2-12-12. 
Also 20 pounds of borax per acre mixed with fertilizer should be applied at 
seeding time. Alfalfa is a heavy user of lime, and it is generally advisable 
to apply | to 2 tons of limestone per acre. 
Adaptable Seed and Inoculation are»most important for satisfactory stands. 
Sow at the rate of 20 to 30’ pounds per acre during March or April, or in the 
fall during August and September. 
KANSAS GROWN ALFALFA 
At the time our catalog went to press, prospects were that there would be 
very little Kansas grown seed available owing to practically a crop failure. 
Only limited stocks will be available for spring sowing. 
APPROVED OKLAHOMA ALFALFA 
Approved Oklahoma Alfalfa Seed in tests carried on for several years in 
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, has been proved to be no different whatsoever in 
winter hardiness from that of Kansas grown seed. The parent stock of Ap- 
proved Oklahoma Alfalfa was introduced from various northern sources by 
settlers in the early days and in many instances has been reproduced over a 
period of 30 years and grown continuously in western Oklahoma. We have 
supplied this same strain of seed to our customers for a number of years, and 
it has given equally as good results as Kansas grown seed, as a result of which 
the government ceiling price on approved Oklahoma Alfalfa was the same 
as that of Kansas grown seed during the war. 
Weather conditions for harvesting Oklahoma Approved Alfalfa were most 
favorable and the quality exceptionally fine. We do not handle common 
Oklahoma seed, which is sold at a considerable discount under Oklahoma 
Approved. 
WHITE SWEET CLOVER 
A wonderful pasture, hay, soil improving and honey plant. It is a good crop 
to condition land for alfalfa, which it resembles. It is biennial, growing from 
a deep root system the second year, and will reseed if allowed to. It makes 
an enormous vigorous growth, allowing several cuttings a year, but should 
be cut before blooms appear. It is a splendid pasture crop, relished by all 
livestock and will not cause bloating; will grow on very poor soil provided 
it is well limed and the seeds inoculated. Sow preferably on small grains 
15 lbs. per acre from February to April. 
WHITE DUTCH CLOVER 
Include it in all lawn or pasture mixtures on all types of soil, even sandy, acid, 
or in shade, although it grows most luxuriously in limed moist lowland. It 
furnished winter and spring pasturage, preferred by all livestock, is not easy. 
to tramp out, restricts washing, adds fertility, and aids growth of companion 
grasses. Inoculate and sow in spring or late summer, 5 to 8 lbs. per acre 
alone, or 2 to 3 Ibs. in mixture.

WHITE CLOVER FOR GRAZING 
Wood's Dixie White Clover 
One of the few plants that furnishes abundant grazing throughout 
the year under severe southern conditions. The hottest dry summers 
do not stop its steady growth. It has no equal for winter and early 
spring grazing by its vigorous growth in the coldest weather. It 
blooms a month earlier than White Dutch clover, growing several 
inches taller, with leaves and stems larger. In a two-year test (ex- 
cept Ladino) with varieties from all over the world, it made by far 
the best grazing. It was the earliest to bloom, made the most lux- 
uriant winter and early spring growth, 10 inches tall and stood the 
hot dry summers. Wood's Dixie makes slightly less growth than 
Ladino, but much larger than ordinary white clover. 
LADINO CLOVER 
In Combination with Orchard Grass and Alta Fescue 
There are probably no combinations of grasses and clovers that 
have given such outstanding results as Ladino Clover with Orchard 
Grass or Alta Fescue. These mixtures have given remarkable re- 
sults throughout the Atlantic Coastal States, as well as a large por- 
tion of the U. S. as a whole. The crop may be grazed by cattle, 
swine or poultry, or used as a hay crop. ‘No clover is higher in 
protein than Ladino Clover. Sow 2 Ibs. Ladino with 10 to 12 Ibs. 
of Alta Fescue or Orchard Grass per acre. In seeding Ladino 
with other grasses the crop is more easily cured for hay. For fur- 
ther information on Ladino and Alta Fescue see preceding pages. 
CRIMSON CLOVER 
A winter legume for hay, pasture and soil improvements. Inoculate 
and sow 20 lbs. per acre from July till October on all idle lands. 
BUR CLOVER—Hulled Seed 
As a pasture crop in the Southern States it is excellent for hogs, 
sheep and cattle. Insures abundant winter feed during the time 
many species are dormant. Sow either alone or for permanent 
pastures in combination with perennial grasses and other clovers.
