••The greatest surprise in farming of
tfie past five years, is the prominence
and. favor obtained by this previously
despised weed. It has now been test
ed sufficiently and under such a var
iety of conditions as' to warrant all
that is claimed for it by its best
friends. It has made good.
Sweet clover, either white or yel
low, biennial, will grow and produce
mbre hay, pasture or seed* under
mtire adverse conditions, than any
other similar crop. It is adapted to
& wider range of soil, Jrom the best
to dry. wet, gumbo, sttrncy or alka
line. than is its nearest competitor,
alfalfa. Sweet clover is without any
doubt the surest seeding (and the
seed is as easily saved) of any of the
forage crops grown in the northwest.
There is only one soil condition that
is not favorable to sweet clover it
does not do well on sour soils it does
best on lime or slightly alkaline
soils.
-i For Pastor*?.
All kinds of stock soon learn to
relish green sweet clover, and do as
well, or better, on it than any other
pasture. It very seldom bloats cat
Ue #r sheep. It is especially valuable
ih replenishing old worn pastdres.
For seeding on old pastures, Nature's
method had best be followed. Sow
the unscarified seed late in the fall,
six to ten pounds if hulled, or twice
afe many pounds of unhulled seed, per
acre. Disking or harrowing will help
to get the seed into the soil, and a
light coating of manure will work
bonders in helping the sweet clover
to start.Sowing the seed—preferably
Scarified—on late snow in the spring,
is also a satisfactory method, but
1)0 so good as fall seeding. Sweet
Clover starts early, before any other
grass or weeds, and if fall sown the
seed takes up moisture, and is ready
to start at the very first "solicitation
of spring." The seed may be dis
tributed by sprinkling it over the
manure in the spreader—a pint to a
quart to the load, depending on l.ow
ii)any loads per acre is being spread,
TOrhave sown on thejlast snow in the
spring, broadcast by hand

es of buck brush, or other parts or
the pasture where the grass did _no^

grow,- manured and seeded to sw
clover, and we can keep twice as
many stock on the' same pasture as
we could before.
For Hay.

crops may make nicer feed, but they
are no better and cannot bei depend
ed on as sweet clover can.
For hay, sweet clover may be seed
ed alone, or with a light crop of Mar

fair crop of hay and pasture may be
secured the first year, but cutting or

land must be solid at seeding time.
When sown with a nurse crop it
should be gotten in as early as pos
sible—before the soil dries out. AVc
seed ten pounds of scarified seed per
acre, using a grass seed attachment
on the grain drill, and sow the seed
broadcast ahead of the drills. A
single disk drill covers the seed suf
ficiently, but if a double disk is useu,
the field should be harrowed lightly
to cover the seed.
Putting the seed in with the
grain is satisfactory if not seed
ed too deep. The seed may
be sown alone as late as the first of
June, if there is plenty of moisturw
in the soil, but it should have time
to make a good growth before heavy
frost. The biennial sweet clovers,
during the first year, store up iii
large, fleshy roots, food to make a
big growth in the second year. *^fhe
more stored, the better the growth
will be the Tecond year.
Sweet clover is somewhat more
difficult to make into hay than alfal
fa or clover, because it must be cut
earlier and is very sappy.
To make hay it must be cut before
it gets too stemmv—before any bloom
appears. A thick stand of white
sweet clover must be cut high. It
tends to branch out. and when grow
ing thick the lower branch buds start
and die. If the plant is cut beio*
these dead buds, it will be killed. It
