SCARFF’S CLOVERS PAY EXTRA DIVIDENDS 
Medium Red Clover 
The Farmer’s Standard Hay 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 objection- 
able 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. 
Will gladly send you a sample of our 
seed to compare with any other lot 
you can secure. If you expect to pas- 
ture the field for a year or so you can 
add much volume and value by add- 
ing one-half pound of Ladino Clover 
(description below). Price Premium 
grade Red Clover—Lot No. 1, Good 
Color, Best Grade Every Way, per bu., 
$27.00; per 12 bu., $14.50. Lot No. 2, 
Good seed, better than average, a de- 
pendeble grade, per bu., $25.00; per 14 bu., $13.50. 
Lot No. 3, Bright color and good grade, contains 3% 
other ast seed. A good buy, per bu., $25.00; per 1 
bu., $13.00. 
Alsike Clover 
Much like red clover 
except has white blos- 
soms, is not so tall 
and finer stemmed. 
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 oa possibly 
_ secure. Price, per V2 bu., $17.00; 
| per bu., $32.00. 
Timothy Seed 7P¢value 
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 1/2 purl $3.50. oe 
G C e New kind es- 
Marietta Timothy (rein ‘Sasa 
to the central and southern part of Ohio. Ripens 
earlier, stays green over a longer period. Regis- 
tered Seed, per bu., $8.50. 
Cumberland 
Clover Cumber- 
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., $34.00; 
per 1 bu., $18.00; per 
Y, bu., $9.50.

Red Clover pays the fertilizer account 
Kenland Red Clover 
Higher Yield — Less Disease 
This new anthracnose resistant variety is 
adapted all over Ohio but especially is it recom- 
mended for the southern haif of our state. The 
above also applies to Indiana, Illinois and for all 
of Kentucky. According to The Agricultural 
Research Administration, Beltsville, Md., “At 
some locations, using the same good stand- 
ard strain for comparison throughout the period, 
the yield for Kenland has been over 40%.” The 
extra yield of both forage and seed makes it a 
much better soil builder also. This alone should 
pay for the total cost of the seed. Price per bu., 
Certified seed, $38.00. 
Certified Midland Red Clover 
adapted to central and northern Ohio. Is winter 
hardy and has excellent growth characteristics. 
Resistant to Anthracnose. Price per bu., $34.00; 
per 1 bu., $18.00; per 14 bu., $9.50. 
Mammoth Red Clover -omsiimss 
Sapling Clover. This clover grows somewhat 
rough and tall. Produces only one crop of either 
hay or seed. It is, however, an excellent soil 
builder and is preferred by many farmers. Price 
for best quality seed, $24.00 per bu.; per 12 bu., 
$12.50; per peck, $6.50.
