can be secured simply by sowing the

To determine the method that will

will generally require some expert

found successful To sow sweet clover
with timothy, the blue grass being al

Perhaps there l. no use for sweet
clover that gives such promise aud
that seems of such wide application
as its combination with blue grass
for pasture.
Both crops grow together well. even
when there Is II perfect stand of each.
The sweet clover adds nitrogen to the
SOIL, mud where the stand Of blue grass
is poor this helps 1t to thicken and
produce n much better stand than
would be- possible without sweet
clover. Furthermore, the clover adds
greatly To the total amount Of pas
turage produced and gives a longer
pasture season. II comes on In the
spring two or three weeks earlier than
most other grasses and the live stock
can be turned out to pasture just that
much earlier. In some instances this
combination has more than doubled
the carrying capacity Of an acre OF
blue grass alone. a frst-class pas
ture of this kind will easily carry two
| Os0-pound steers on an acre In the
spring and early summer. and as n
usual thing will carry more than one
such steer during the remainder of the
