““CUMBERLAND” CLOVER 
(Certified) 
Disease-resistant strain Cumberland Clover 
was bred to resist attacks of “stem spot” 
(anthracnose) disease. Has been making 
good records. One 4-year series of New 
Jersey tests averaged better than 3 tons of 
hay per acre, an increase of 19 per cent to 
32 per cent over other competing strains. 
With proper management, Cumberland 
was shown capable of furnishing a good 
stand for 2 years of hay cutting. Its good 
yield and long life greatly offset its extra 
first cost. Order early. Replacement may 
not be possible. 
RED CLOVER “Extra Quality” 
Here is Red Clover seed of strictly top 
quality. The choice of available commer- 
cial seed. Sown by thousands of folks 
through many years. Seed from depend- 
able sources. Sometimes known by the 
name of June, or Medium Clover. Most 
popular of all the clovers. Tested seed with 
high freedom from foul weeds. And seed 
of sound growth. True, this requires con- 
stant watching and most careful selection. 
But that’s our job here .. . trying to sup- 
ply you with the seed that will do your 
Jlotintan ality 
to Bale, Store Loose, or Feed as Grass Silage 
crop job right. Your reliance upon Hoff- 
man “Extra” Quality seed will help pro- 
vide good clover-crop insurance. 
“MAMMOTH” (Sapling) CLOVER 
This year, more acres may be sown to 
Mammoth Clover (sometimes called Sap- 
ling). It makes a heavier top growth than 
regular Red Clover. Is preferred for the 
poorer, more sandy soils. Just one crop of 
hay can be harvested in a season, since it 
does not recover quickly. On the other 
hand, Mammoth is generally longer lived 
than is regular Red Clover. That may 
account for its presence in many pasture 
mixtures. Cultural methods are generally 
the same. The low cost of this true Mam- 
moth seed should warrant its much wider 
use this year. 
ALSIKE . . . Sure-Cropping CLOVER 
No other clover, year in and year out, 
shows up as favorably as Alsike. Survives 
most any weather. Produces fine hay, often 
when its companion plantings almost dis- 
appear. Withstands acid soils quite well. 
Small seeded, it “goes farther” at sowing 
time. Dependable on wetter soils. Is a 
sure catch, not subject to usual clover sick- 
ness. Sow clean, hardy Hoffman Alsike 
seed. Supply limited this year.
