ALSIKE, Or HYBRID CLOVER 
CLOVER SEEDS 
Northwestern-grown Alfalfa pro- 
duces from 3 to 7 tons of hay to the acre. 
It has as much protein as wheat-bran. 
Three hundred and sixty stalks have been 
grown from 1 seed. It does not exhaust the 
soil; it enriches the soil. It will grow three 
to five crops a year. Alfalfa in money value 
is worth 45 per cent more than other 
Clovers and 60 percent more than Timothy. 
Ten milch cows can be fed on less than 2 
acres by soiling. Lb. 75c., bu. $88.00. 
Canadian Variegated Alfalfa. This AI- 
falfa was developed in Ontario, Canada, 
and is a cross between Grimm and North- 
western. It comes to us field-inspected 
and certified to be 60 per cent variegated 
flowered. It does not spread as much as 
the Grimm or common. It is recommended 
by the Experiment Stations for northern 
Pennsylvania and New York State. 
Lb. 75c., bu. $41.60. 
Alsike or Swedish. This is one of the hardi- 
est varieties known. It is perennial and 
does not Winter-kill. 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. Lb. 65c., bu. $28.00. 
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 low- 
land. It furnishes Winter and Spring pas- 
turage, 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 lbs. in mixture. Lb. $1.50. 
if wanted by Parcel Post, add postage 7 cents for the first 
Second Zones. Seamless 2-bush 
Grimm. 
Medium Red Clover. 
We have the genuine certified 
Grimm Alfalfa produced in the Northwest, 
where the climate is colder for longer 
periods than in the eastern States. More 
hardy than the common, has a different 
root system and comes through on soils 
that will not maintain the common va- 
riety. Comes in sealed containers certify- 
ing its genuineness. Lb. 90c., bu. $40.00. 
Mammoth Red Clover. (Domestic grown.) 
Pea Vine or Sapling Clover. A large, rank- 
growing clover, ripening at the same time 
as Timothy, producing an enormous yield. 
It is a valuable plant for our depleted, 
worn-out hills, producing a satisfactory 
yield. Our stock of this clover is the Gen- 
uine Mammoth. Lb. 75c., bu. $35.00. 
Crimson, or German Clover (Trifolium in- 
carnatum.) Erect annual, 1 to 2 ft. high, 
with bright scarlet flowers. It is largely 
grown for improving the soil by turning 
under. It is a valuable crop for pasturage 
or green manure. For hay it should be 
cut when in full bloom. Sow 20 lbs. to the 
acre. Lb. 45c., bu. $22.00. 
(Domestic grown.) 
Red or June Clover is probably more gen- 
erally grown than any other. This crop is 
the stand-by for American farmers, both 
for hay and soiling. Much publicity has 
been given this important crop during the 
past few years as to the adaptability of 
seeds from Southern sections when planted 
in the Northern States. It is agreed among 
investigators that seed for planting under 
Pennsylvania farm conditions should be 
northern-grown, to stand our harsh Winter 
and early Spring conditions. We take great 
pains to offer our trade only seed of the 
Medium Red variety that is northern- 
grown, as free as possible from weeds, and 
of the best germination. Our Domestic 
Medium Red Clover is always the best 
procurable. Lb. 75c., bu. $35.00. 
Ladino White Clover. Sow it for a year 
‘round pasture. U. S. Department of 
Agriculture says: ‘‘Ladino is the largest 
growing form of white Clover. It is similar 
to White Dutch, but grows twice as large.” 
It is a long lived perennial, excellent for 
grazing, as well as producing a most nu- 
tritious and palatable hay crop. Its tap 
root goes down one to three feet. The 
stems run on the ground, taking root. It 
is not subject to Alfalfa diseases and is 
ideal to plant after Alfalfa. It does not 
bloat livestock as much as other Clovers, 
but is safer to plant with Timothy, Red 
Top, Meadow Fescue, Kentucky Blue, 
Orchard, and Rye Grass. Lb. $3.00. 
Perennial White Sweet Clover. (Melilotus 
alba.) A legume of immense size and rank 
growth. It has great value as a soil im- 
prover. It furnishes a palatable hay and 
makes excellent pasture. Jnoculate this 
seed with NOD-O-GEN. 
Sweet Clover. Makes a good grade of hay 
and it will produce a larger tonnage than 
any other legume crop; it averages two or 
more cuttings per year. Lime well for sweet 
Clover, at least 14 ton hydrated lime per 
acre, or its equivalent. Sow 25 lbs. per acre. 
Lb. 35c., bu. $16.50. 
Yellow Sweet Clover (Melilotus officinalis.) 
This is also a biennial similar to White 
Blossom Sweet Clover, and used for the 
same purpose. It has a yellow blossom and 
is about two weeks earlier and not so tall. 
It does not grow so heavy and coarse. It 
lays closer to the ground and is considered 
superior for pasture and makes a finer 
grade of hay. For those who do not like the 
White Sweet Clover on account of its rank 
growth we would recommend the Yellow 
Blossom. Lb. 35c., bu. $16.50.
