< ‘A Fine Wisconsin Sweet Clover Pasture. 
Grundy County White Blossom 
Grundy County Sweet Clover has several outstanding advantages. 
First, it is three weeks earlier than the common sweet clover. Thus 
the seed ripens ahead of most weeds. Second, while it grows to a good 
height and makes a good hay crop it is not as tall as the common and 
is much more easily handled. Third, it is finer and more leafy than the 
common and branches thickly about a foot above the ground, Fourth, 
it yields more seed than the common, several farms in Grundy County 
producing as high as 8 to 15 bushels per acre. 
Grundy County Sweet Clover is perhaps more like Alfalfa than Sweet 
Clover, It grows like alfalfa only faster and the hay is like alfalfa 
hay so that it is in fact almost a ‘“White Blossom Alfalfa.’?

OLDS’ SWEET CLOVERS 
(The Great Soil Builder and Hay Crop.) 
Sweet Clover should be planted for 3 reasons: 
First—A Great Pasture Crop. When the ordinary blue grass pastures 
dry up in midsummer, Sweet Olover keeps right on growing and fur- 
nishes wonderful pasture right through the drouth period. : 
Cows on Sweet Clover produce a splendid flow of milk, It will gen- 
erally pasture a thousand-pound cow per acre for a period of about 4 
months. 
Second—Wonderful Soil Builder. Sweet Clover is an excellent crop 
for building up worn-out soils. It grows faster than red clover or 
alfalfa and larger and the roots penetrate deeper into the soil. y 
Third—A Valuable Hay Crop. While not quite equal to Alfalfa it 
makes good hay if cut at the right time and cattle will eat it. The 
Grundy County is the best for hay. ; t : : 
CULTURE—Sweet Clover is best sown in the spring with onze bushel 
of extra early oats or barley per acre as nurse crop. It can also be sown 
successfully in June or July without a nurse crop or in corn at the last 
cultivation. Fifteen Pounds of Seed per Acre is usually sufficient 
—a little less for Grundy County as the seed is smaller. Inoculate the 
seed before sowing with Nitragin. See page 61. Use lime if your soil 
is sour. Most any well-drained soil is all right for Sweet Clover. 5

Tall White Blossom Sweet Clover

largely sown for all purposes. c s

OLDS’ CANES 
Sorghum Cane 
Sow 4 to 8 pounds of seed to the acre for sorghum. 
ROX ORANGE. A variety of sweet sorghum that has been bred to 
overcome some of the disadvantages of Early Black Amber. It is a 
medium early maturing kind, originated by the Wisconsin College of 
Agriculture Experiment Station. While developed for a syrup  sor- 
ghum, it is also found the best variety for silage. Its advantages over 
the Early Amber are its thicker stalk, easier to strip, easier to thresh, 
stands up better without lodging and will produce a higher yield of 
Syrup, averaging about 80 gallons of syrup per acre. Most seasons 
will produce ripe seed in Central and Southern Wisconsin. Prices, Wis-

tons of green feed per acre. Ideal for silage either alone or drilled with 
corn.
