H a farmer wants a crop which will keep up the fertility, furnish good hay and pasture, that will grow where nothing else does, early in the spring, late in the fall, on alkali, wet, dry, stony or gumbo spots—he should try sweet clover. Sweet clover is a biennial legume, somewhat resembling alfalfa, except that it has a white or yellow com pound blossom. The white variety is preferable to the yellow. Sweet clover hay, cut early enough and properly cured, makes nearly as good hay as alfalfa. And sweet clo ver with its deep root system and its large roots capable of penetrating a relatively hard subsoil, is an even greater soil builder than alfalfa. One acre of sweet clover, plowed under, has the same fertilizing value as 25 tons of average farm manure. Even when the crop is taken for hay or pasture, the roots as they decay greatly increase fertility, and by bor ing deep into subsoil also increase its moisture holding capacity. The following important facts con cerning sweet clover are worth bear ing in mind: 1. AS PASTURE—Sweet clover is superior to clover or alfalfa, be cause it never bloats stock, and they like it just as well, after they get used to It. Although It lasts only two years, it will reseed itself if not pastured too soon. Will grow on nearly all soils, but requires a hard seed bed. Hence can be seeded on old pasture, on burns, cutover lands, and stubble fields. Produces earlier pasture its second year than other crops do. If sown two years in suc- cession, will reseed itself annually and produce permanent pasture. 2. HAY—Will produce a crop at end of first season, and two to three crops the second. First cutting the second year should be about June 1st. It must be cut early, before it grows too large and coarse. It must also be cut with a high stubble, or the plants may be killed. 3. AS SILAGE — Sweet clover thoroughly chopped and packed, makes excellent silage. One stock- man tested it for fattening beef cat tle. Two year old steers were fed all this silage. For a grain ration, they were given 10 pounds barley per day. In 16 days, one steer gain ed 140 pounds, or 8% pounds per day. Stock sometimes refuses to eat sweet clover at first, but they ' soon learn to like it, and then will take it In preference to other clovers. Hogs make larger gains and dairy cows give more milk on sweet clover pas ture. Sweet clover may be sown at any time of the year, late fall, winter or early spring. The seed is very hard and germinates better if soaked and frozen. To improve pasture, a light seeding should be made on the last snow In the spring. For spring sow ing scarified seed is the best—since the scrotching of the seed coat makes it germinate quickly. The earlier in spring sweet clover is sown, the bet ter. To insure best success, it should be inoculated. 4. AS SOIL BUILDER—Sweet clover will smother out nearly all kinds of weeds. It will grow on soils too low or wet. too alkaline, too hard, stony or dry to grow clover or alfalfa. By opening up these soils to air and water, and by adding hu- mus and nitrogen, it improves these soils so that other crops can grow thereon. Sweet clover also inoculates the ground for alfalfa, so that the latter will succeed where it would not before. butterfat THIS PRICE BE.
