Experience has demonstrated that in most soils reseeding should be resorted to at intervals of about six years, and in many districts in the cattle region of the Southwest, fresh seeding every year has proved profitable. Prepare the land by deep plowing and thorough harrowing. Sow from twenty to thirty pounds of seed to the acre, and harrow or brush it in well. Seeding thick will produce fine stalks—a desirable feature, either in hay or pasture. The seed should be sown in spring, after danger from freezing the young plants is over, or in the fall, early enough to give it a good stand before frost. RED CLOVER— Trijoliumpratense.—The stand- ard Clover for all purposes, either pasture, hay or for improving and enriching the soil. It is hardy, and may be sown at any time when the ground is in con- dition to receive the seed. It succeeds well on any good soil, and thin, light lands are made fertile and rich by allowing them to remain seeded to it for a number of years. It yields the heaviest crop of any Clover, except Alfalfa, and makes superior hay— especially if mixed with Timothy—either for dairy cows or general use. Sow from twelve to fifteen pounds per acre, being careful to get it evenly distrib- uted over the ground. MAMMOTH RED CLOVER— Trijolium pra- tense.—Similar to Red Clover, but coarser and taller, and considered of more value for reclaiming and enriching waste lands, as it sustains itself, and suc- ceeds sometimes when Red Clover fails. Sow from twelve to fifteen pounds per acre, in time to get the benefit of ample moisture. CRIMSON or SCARLET CLOVER— Trijolium Incarnatum.—-This is a newer variety of Trifolium, highly commended for pasture, hay, and fertilizing purpos
