Crimson Clover and Alfalfa Seed.

Now is the time to buy your GRIM
son clover and alfalfa seed. II you
have not already done so, it should
not be put off any longer. The prices
now are very probably just as cheap
as they will be this year and to be
sure of obtaining good seed it is bet
ter not to delay buying. There is
going to be a rush for the few seed
that are going to be brought into the
county unless the farmers advise be-
forehand just how many seed they
want. The county agent will be glad
TO help the farmers get their seed and
also help them procure lime for their
alfalfa and other crops The Rock
Hill Alfalfa association will have a
solid carload of alfalfa and crimson
clover seed in within the next few
days, and those farmers who desire to
obtain some of these seed should let
the county agent know the amount OF
seed. The price quoted is 22c for
crimson clover and 26c for alfalfa.
The seed are recleaned and new crop.
Lime can also be obtained through
this organization.
