SCARFF’S CLOVERS PAY EXTRA DIVIDENDS 
s The Farmer’s 
Medium Red Clover $f 2 fd ruta: 
and Seed Legume. There was harvested here in 
Ohio many lots of good quality red clover seed 
this season. Most lots, unless cleaned properly, 
contain a very large percentage of objectionable 
and some noxious weed seed which adds dollars 
to the cost as well as contaminates your farm. 
This makes it very important that you buy only 
the best grade of seed from which the weeds 
have been removed. Select your clover only by 
the analysis tag as you are unable to see many 
weed seeds with the naked eye. We will gladly 
send you a sample of our seed to compare with 
any other lot you can secure. You can make 
your seeding cheaper by adding Alsike and 
Timothy which are not so high in price and make 
excellent hay of high nutrient value when grown 
along with Red Clover. If you expect to pasture 
the field for a year or so you can add much vol- 
ume and value as well by adding one-half to one 
pound of Ladino Clover (description below).

_ Alsike Clover 
Much like red clover 
. except has white blos- 
'soms, is not so tall 
and finer stemmed. 
“som Seed is smaller and 
-.goes farther — sure 
catch and less liable 
to freeze than red clover. Many 
sow mixture of red and Alsike. 
We can verify origin of all our 
seed and have only one grade, 
which is best we can possibly 
secure. Price, per 2 bu., $16.00; 
per bu., $30.00. 
S Ee 
Timothy Seed 37qyaiue 
thy in seed mixture has been 
vastly underestimated. When 
grown with Red Clover, Alfalfa 
or Alsike it carries the same 
feeding value as the Legumes. 
It, too, will help insure a stand 
as many times it will catch when 
other seed will not. Price, per bu., 
$6.50; per 1 bu., $3.50. 
Timothy 
Certified Cumberland Red 
Cumber- 
Clover land is a 
synthetic composed of 
three old, productive 
and disease resistant 
strains from Ken- 
tucky, Tennessee and 
northern Virginia. It 
is resistant to south- 
ern anthracnose and 
crown rot. It is well 
adapted for forage 
and seed production 
in central and south- 
ern Ohio. Experience 
in southern Ohio has 
already demonstrated 
that Cumberland is 
superior to northern 
strains in disease re- 
sistance, ability to re- 
cover after cutting 
and length of life. 
Price per bu., $35.00; 
per 2 bu., $18.00; per 
VW, bu., $9.50.
