KENLAND RED CLOVER 
Certified, 99.75% pure. DISEASE RESISTANT. Most Sensational Red 
Clover Ever Introduced. Bred to produce superior yields where Southern 
anthracnose is destructive; it grows off faster, crowds out weeds, resists 
cold winters or hot summer droughts; stands last much longer and it 
outyields other strains so much that it is recommended by 29 states, in- 
cluding the Deep South, far beyond the area it was developed for, de- 
manding 15,000,000 Ibs. of seed annually. When artificially inoculated 
with anthracnose over twice as many plants survive as any other variety. 
It averaged 16% more foliage than the best of other strains for 5 years 
in 39 tests throughout the Southern Red Clover Belt, often 40% more 
than the good old strains. Kenland’s additional root and nodule growth 
adds 35 to 45 lbs. more nitrogen per acre. The soil improvement ad- 
vantages alone are worth more than the seed cost. In a U.S.D.A. test 
it had a perfect stand where other disease resistant strains were half 
taken over by weeds and some were gone. Kenland stands have lasted 
3 years and may last longer. 
It took 10 years to develop Kenland, a hybrid of 7 old disease resistant 
strains from different parts of the South. They are artificially inoculated 
with anthracnose 4 generations eliminating susceptible plants. Vigorous 
plants were then intercrossed. 
Sow 12 lbs. per acre in early spring or fall, 8 lbs. in mixtures. Ladino, 
orchard grass and tall fescue seedings grow slowly the first year and 
weeds get ahead of them. For a full crop the first year and larger 
succeeding crops add 2 lbs. Kenland and 5 lbs. Alfalfa. 
U. S. RED CLOVER. Our Seed is Adapted to Upper South. 
The ideal biennial legume for crop rotations, furnishes an abundance of 
highly nutritious hay or pasture and adds nitrogen and humus to the 
soil. Cut it just before full bloom for best quality hay and largest 
amount of leaves and nutrients. This lets the second crop get an earlier 
start and larger yield. Does well on any well drained, limed and fer- 
tilized soil. Inoculate and broadcast on small grain from February to 
April or in August; 12 Ibs. per acre alone, or 8 lbs. in grass mixtures. 
MAMMOTH RED CLOVER, Sapling, for hay with timothy. 
Seed is identical to red clover, growth similar, but larger, is long lived 
and matures hay two weeks later, at the same time as timothy. Makes 
One cutting a year. Cut in early bloom state. Superior for soil improve- 
ment. Seeding rate and culture same as red clover. For hay on strong 
loam or clay soils use 8 lbs. sapling, 10 Ibs. timothy, and 3 Ibs. red top. 
ALSIKE CLOVER pasture or hay on poor, acid or wet soils. 
Culture same as Red Clover; but has more leaves, grows thicker, has finer 
stems, makes better quality hay and more and better grazing. Grows on 
soils too acid, poor or wet for other clover, is hardier, hay contains a 
higher per cent of digestible protein, stands longer uncut without de- 
terioration, and is adapted to a wider variety of soils. Succeeds on light 
uplancs, loam, clay or wet bottoms. Sow it where other clovers fail. 
Ideal in pasture mixtures, makes a thick undergrowth, greatly increasing 
the yield, is highly nutritious and palatable. Sow 8 Ibs. per acre; 3 to 
4 lbs. in every permanent pasture or hay mixture. 
WOOD'S DIXIE WHITE CLOVER for Year Round Grazing. 
A giant strain 3 times as large as White Dutch, similar to Ladino in 
growth, adaptation and seeding requirements; grows more vigorously 
earlier in the spring, during hot summer droughts, and later in the fall; 
requires less lime, fertilizer and attention. It is not as tall and produc- 
tive as Ladino when heavily fertilized and grazed in rotation, but if 
grazed continuously and closely it prospers and spreads without dying 
out like Ladino, destroying the value of the pasture. It is more resistant 
to Southern adversities and diseases. Stands last indefinitely. It en- 
courages companion grasses to grow. We never heard of it causing bloat- 
ing. It is less expensive than Ladino. Sow in early Spring or Fall. 2 Ibs. 
per acre in Southern permanent pastures. 1 lb. if Ladino is used, for 
nitrogen and protein if it dies out. 
NEW ZEALAND WILD WHITE CLOVER 
A fine pasture variety of White Clover. Produces a very permanent 
spreading growth on a wide variety of soils. Supplies a great amount of 
grazing and its heavy sod helps greatly in keeping pastures free of 
weeds. Once established it will last for years. It is a great soil improver. 
Our stock is the genuine strain direct from New Zealand. 
This is also a very fine variety for use on Lawns. Claims are made that 
it will help prevent Crab Grass.

LADINO CLOVER is the most nutritious, palatable and productive year 
‘round pasture legume. Its peak growth is in early spring and fall when 
native grasses are short. It is so rich it may cause bloating unless grasses 
are grown with it. Sow 1 to 2 Ibs. Ladino with 10 Ibs. of orchard grass 
or tall fescue, in early spring or fall. Add 2 Ibs. of Red Clover and 5 lbs. 
of Alfalfa for more summer pasture. Wood’s Permanent Pasture Mixtures 
contain all these with additional grasses and clovers for maximum year 
‘round production and highest feed value, but cannot cause bloating. 
LADINO CLOVER 
CERTIFIED or AFFIDAVIT. THE KING OF PASTURE LEGUMES. 
The foundation for intensive grassland farming, bringing new wealth, 
improving soils and revolutionizing Southern agriculture. In N. C. Ladino 
increased from 500 acres in 1945 to 1,000,000. It is the best pasture 
legume in yield, palatability, minerals, vitamins, 20% to 30% protein, 
nitrogen fixation, low in fiber, low seed requirements per acre, long pro- 
ductive life for pasture, silage and hay, quick recovery after drought or 
grazing and compatibility with other legumes and grasses if managed 
right. It produces up to 6,500 Ibs. of dry feed per acre, enabling farmers 
to grow most of their protein and minerals needed for all livestock, 
saving in cost of feed and labor in feeding. Its low fibre content is most 
valuable for hogs and poultry. To avoid bloating cattle, pastures should 
be half grass. Ladino-orchard grass pastures have great carrying capacity 
for 4 to 8 years if well fertilized and managed, and have grazed 2 or 
more cattle per acre over 10 years in Va. Do not graze closer than 3 to 
5 inches or plants are weakened and weeds take over. By dividing the 
pasture, sections can be grazed in rotation up to 12 months per year. 
Ladino grows vigorously except in very cold or hot dry weather, then 
quickly recovers. Supplement it with Wood’s Grain Pasture Mixture in 
winter and Lespedezas in summer. For year ‘round grazing plant Wood’s 
Permanent Pasture Mixtures. 
Ladino is a giant strain of White Clover with same adaptation and 
growth habits as common white clover found in closely grazed pastures, 
but grows faster and 4 times as large, spreading by creeping, fleshy 
stems that root at the nodes. It prefers moist fertile soil, but does well on 
most any well fertilized soil if not too wet or sandy and dry. It has 
shallow roots. Make a well prepared compact seedbed. Roll or cultipack 
before and after seeding. Sow not over V/2 inch deep. Without ample lime, 
phosphate and potash Ladino pasture is no better than others. Use 800 
Ibs. 2-12-12 when seeding, and 600 Ibs. 0-12-12 annually. Inoculate 
heavily. 
Our Ladino is 992% pure Certified or Affidavit California grown, 
where White Dutch Clover does not grow naturally as it does in the East, 
contaminating Eastern grown Ladino seed. Their seeds cannot be told 
apart. We suggest using Affidavit since it is as good as Certified, but 
much cheaper. 
WHITE DUTCH CLOVER for Lawns or Permanent Pasture. 
Same adaptation, growth habits and seeding requirements as Ladino but 
does not grow as fast or tall, requires less time, phosphate and potash; 
does better in Ky. Bluegrass pastures or lawns; is more persistent, disease 
and winter resistant; stands more neglect, trampling and closer con- 
tinuous grazing. Put 2 Ibs. per acre in permanent pastures, 1 Ib. with 
Ladino in case it dies out.
