Red and Crimson Clover.

One of the troubles with crimson
clover in the North is that 1t frequent
ly winter kills, despite the utmost care.
Try the plan OF adding one-quarter of
red clover seed; that is, SOW eight
pounds OF crimson clover seed mixed
with four or FIVE pounds of red clover
seed: the latter being somewhat more
hardy will act as a protection during
the winter. 1t is quite as good for
feeding, If the clover is for that pur-
pose. and will add humus to the soil
IL it be turned under IN the spring.
While the usual plan is to sow the
clover at the time of the last cultiya-
ton Of the corn, better results are
often had by sowing the seed alone
after thorough preparation of the
soil by plowing and narrowing. Natu-
rally, by this plan, the roots penetrate
deeper into the soil, hence the danger
of winter killing is lessened. Those
who have had trouble with winter-S.l-
ing should try this plan. Crimson clio
yer may be sown successfully any
where it may be grown up to the 10th
Of August.
