A Great Clover for Pasture 
Sweet Clover has an unusually heavy 
carrying capacity as a pasture, It will take 
care of more stock per acre than any other 
elover. You can get this pasture the same 
year that you sow it. Sweet Clover when 
sOWN On winter wheat or with spring grain 
will grow quite fast after the grain crop has 
been removed. Generally you can begin pas-- 
turing it about the middle of July. You can 
put quite a lot of stock on it. Let the crop 
go into the winter with pretty good top 
growth. That will give the plants added 
strength and enable them to come through 
the winter in better shape. In the second 
year it starts growing early and grows until 
about mid-summer. Some make a practice 
of sowing sweet clover two years in succes- 
sion on the same land. Thus when the sec- 
ond year clover is finishing its growth the 
new seeding is coming along to provide pas- 
ture for the balance of the season. You can 
maintain a pasture this way for several 
years.

Sweet Clover this year. While 
the Wheat was not too heavy,

Generally Makes Hay the First Year 
While the sweet clover is used principally 
for soil improvement and for pasture it also 
will make good hay, especially the first year. 
It should be cut early enough in the fall so 
that the growth can come on to make good 
production before winter sets in or cut it 
with a fairly high stubble. The feeding 
value of sweet clover hay, especially the first 
year’s crop, is very good. It should be well 
cured so that it does not become moldy, Tf 
you wish hay in the second year be sure to 
cut it with a high stubble. The second crop 
from sweet clover, in the second year of its 
growth, comes up from the stubble and not 
from a crown like alfalfa. If you cut sweet 
clover close to the ground in the second year 
of its growth you will generally kill it out. 
If it is cut for hay in the second year, cut 
it about the time the bloom buds begin to 
show up.

above and it gives you a very dependable seeding at a very reasonable cost. 
It is about a choice or Planet Brand quality. A combination of White and 
Yellow Sweet Clover is a very common one from the standpoint of practical 
value. You will get your money’s worth and then some in this special mix. 
For pasture it gives you longer periods for in the second year the Yellow 
generally starts a little quicker while the White matures later. In plowing 
under for soil building purposes, the mixture is just as satisfactory as either 
straight White or Yellow.
