36 THE SNOWY RANGE SEED COMPANY 
Clovers 
(ASK FOR PRICES) 
ALSIKE OR SWEDISH CLOVER 
Grows well on low, wet land where Red Clover 
does not thrive. Alsike being a perennial, will 
last for a good many years, either for hay or in 
pasture. It makes fine hay of high feeding value. 
It is valuable in pastures, especially on wet or 
heavy soil. Sow 6 to 10 pounds of seed per acre 
if used alone. 
LESPEDEZA (Korean Clover) 
Lespedeza grows on poor soils and increases the 
fertility as well as improves the physical condi- 
tion of the soil, It is an annual but will reseed 
itself each year so that only one sowing is nec- 
essary for a permanent pasture. For pasture 
about 8 pounds of seed is required per acre. 
On tilled land for hay or for a seed crop 10 to 
12 pounds per acre should be sown. Korean Les- 
pedeza is palatable to all classes of live stock, 
particularly cattle. 
MEDIUM RED CLOVER 
Fits better into crop rotation than any other 
legume. It will increase the yield of succeeding 
crops besides furnishing many tons of hay of 
high protein content. It is a biennial which means 
that it will grow for two seasons only and then 
must be reseeded. Requires medium rich well 
drained soil. Sow 8 to 12 lbs. per acre. 
MAMMOTH RED CLOVER 
Resembles Medium Red Clover but grows taller 
and the hay is coarser. It is hardy and valuable 
for fertilizing poor soil. Sow 8 to 12 lbs. per 
acre. 
STRAWBERRY CLOVER (Trifolium Fragiferum) 
Is primarily a pasture crop. It thrives on wet, 
seepy ground, which may be crusty with alkali 
and is apparently more resistant to alkali than 
any other clover. It is capable of spreading and 
establishing itself by its stout creeping runners. 
Three to five pounds will seed an acre. 
LADINO CLOVER 
Is regarded as a tall form of White Dutch 
Clover. It is a low growing, leafy plant with suc- 
culent and somewhat coarse stems. Sow in the 
spring or fall, sow 7 to 8 pounds per acre. 
Seed Grains 
(ASK FOR PRICES) 
Wheat 
On irrigated lands, sow 60 to 75 pounds per acre; 
on dry land, 40 to 50 pounds. 
MARQUIS 
It is a very early, beardless, hard red spring 
wheat, very productive. It has higher milling 
and baking qualities than most varieties of spring 
wheat known today and will almost always grade 
No. 1. Besides being about ten days earlier than 
most varieties of spring wheat it generally out- 
yields them and has been known to produce 45 
to 60 bushels per acre. As it is short stiff 
strawed, it is not likely to lodge and stands up 
well under irrigated conditions. The grain is 
plump and of a dark red appearance. 
THATCHER 
A new beardless, hard red spring wheat, develop- 
ed in Minnesota. Rust resistant and equal in mill- 
ing and baking qualities to Marquis. 
WINTER WHEAT 
For Fall seeding, a hard, bearded winter wheat. 
Very prolific and stands cold and drought well. 
Barley 
(ASK FOR PRICES) 
On irrigated land, sow 60 to 90 pounds per acre; 
on dry land, 40 to 50 pounds. 
BEECHER , 
A semi-smooth awned barley that has outyielded 
Club Mariout or Flynn over 25 per cent at the 
U. S. Dryland Station at Akron. Also shows a 
better bushel weight. Stiff strawed. Adapted to 
dryland conditions. 
LICO y 
This is a high yielding barley, very much like 
Trebi except that it is smooth awned. 
TREBI 
This is a six-rowed, bearded, hulled barley 
adapted to irrigated conditions. At the Fort 
Collins Experiment Station it outyielded all other 
barleys in a six-year test. Though it is a rough 
awned variety it has the advantages over coast 
barley in that the awns thresh free from the 
grain, thus eliminating considerable danger in 
feeding. 
BALD OR HULLESS 
Threshes out like wheat, is beardless and equal 
in feeding value to corn. It is early and will 
make a grain crop in high altitude, and is ex- 
cellent if cut for hay. 
Oats 
(ASK FOR PRICES) 
On irrigated land, sow 60 to 90 pounds per acre; 
on dry land, 40 to 50 pounds. 
COLORADO 37 
A mid-season white oat similar to Swedish Select, 
except for fewer awns, higher yield and stiffer 
straw. Adapted to the irrigated sections of north- 
ern Colorado and the cooler regions of other 
sections. 
BRUNKER 
A very early uniform variety of drought-evading, 
smut-resistant red oat. Well adapted to the non- 
60 per cent more than Colorado 87 at the U. S. 
irrigated plains area and high altitudes. Yielded 
Dryland Field Station over an eight year period. 
BLISS SIDE 
A selection from White Russian Side Oats, which 
produces an abundant quantity of oat hay in the 
mountain areas. 
MAREKTON 
A mid-season oat with long, slender to mid- 
plump, yellowish white kernel, particularly 
adapted to warmer irrigated sections and is ra- 
pidly finding a place in northern Colorado where 
it is outyielding Colorado 387. 
VICTORY 
Similar to Colorado 87 with heavier, taller straw. 
SWEDISH SELECT 
A standard heavy yielding white oat. Hull is 
thin, kernel large and plump; straw is stiff and 
strong enough not to lodge. 
Rye 
(ASK FOR PRICES) 
On irrigated land, sow 60 to 80 pounds per acre; 
on dry land, 30 to 40 pounds. In ordering spring 
or fall rye, please note that we supply these 
spring or fall as they are supplied to us, but we 
cannot guarantee them to be such as it is im- 
possible to determine the variety from the ap- 
pearance of the seed. 
FALL OR WINTER 
This is the hardiest of any of the fall grains, 
and can be grown on a greater variety of soils. 
It will thrive in dry seasons and on light, sandy 
soils. It is grown for grain, for hay, for pasture 
and for plowing under for soiling purposes. 
There is no grain crop that produces as much 
and as good pasture as fall rye. If sown in 
August, makes a fine fall and winter pasture. 
Fall rye may also be sown in the spring, when it 
makes splendid summer pasture as. it will not 
go to seed as does the spring rye.
