Sweet Clover for soil improvement in the 
Corn Belt, still ranks high in importance. 
15 to 20 bushel increases in corn yields 
often follow sweet clover plantings. 
In areas where sweet clover use has 
been discouraged due to the sweet 
clover weevil, simple and inexpensive 
treatment can be used. (Ask your 
County Agent, State Extension Dept., 
or write us for information.) 
Sweet Clover is today the cheapest seed 
available for soil building.
