In purchasing Clover Seed always buy the best quality it is possible to procure, as, although the price may seem high, it is much cheaper than buying a poor quality at a low price. The low-priced seeds are usually badly cleaned, of pcor germination, anc very often contain mixtures of weed seeds and seeds of other plants.

The first crop makes rich feed, and is the most valu- able for hay. The second crop does not make so good a quality feed. Like other leguminous plants, Red Clover draws largely for its sustenance from the atmosphere, gathering nitrogen and other constituents required by cul- tivated crops ; its roots penetrate deeply, drawing from the subsoil, thus acting as a soil improver, and not only increas- ing the productiveness of the land, but putting it in better- condition than before. In some sections of the South it is t
