BECKEHT'S FARM SEEDS CLOVERS MEDIUM RED. Most popular Clover for short rotations. When grown with tim- othy it usually makes two good hay crops. Plants grow 2 feet or more in height. Sow seed in late winter on winter grains or on a firm seed-bed with spring grain. Sow 8 to 10 pounds with timothy, or 15 to 18 pounds alone. ALSIKE. A favorite with timothy on acid soils, thin soils, and for wet sites. It may be sown in spring or late sum- mer and is perfectly hardy. Flowers are sweet-scented and attractive to bees, are larger and more pink than White Clover. Adapted only to short rotations. Sow 8 to 10 pounds to the acre alone, or 3 to 6 pounds in mixtures. WHITE DUTCH. A small, low-growing White Clover used principally in lawn and pasture mixtures. Succeeds in nearly all types of soil and is guite persistent. Use 3 to 5 pounds to the acre in mixtures. ALFALFA Northwestern Common. Grown success- fully and entirely satisfactorily in this area. SOY BEANS A good soil-builder when plowed under for green manure. Makes excellent hay or silage. Sow when ground is thor- oughly warm, in May or June. If used for hay, cut after the pods form. Use 2 bushels to the acre broadcast; IV2 bushels when drilled. Seed should be inoculated. We offer Wilson Black. OATS Alfalfa, red clover, permanent grass and clover mixtures can all be satisfactorily sown with Oats. Sow during April or early May at the rate of 2 to 3 bushels by weight to the acre. VICLAND. By all odds the best grain Oats for this section. Kernels plump and heavy; straw stiff and strong. Early maturing and resistant to rusts and smuts. A good yielder and because of its short straw is not likely to lodge. Does best in good soil. FARM SEED PRICES
