CLOVERS AND

purities.

lb., 30c (by mail, 40c per lb.); peck, $3.50;

cleaned. Per lb., 30c (by mail, 40c per lb.);
peck, $3.50; bushel, $13.50; 100 lbs.. $22.00.

better on moist lands and is hardier and more
permanent than any other. Per lb., 30c (by
mail, 40c per lb.); peck, $3.25; bushel, $12.00;
100 lbs., $20.00.

for lawns, and it is also very desirable for pas-

grower, used extensively in the South. If sown
early in the North it produces fine fall pasture,

ten weeks after sowing, making fine pasture for milch
cows and sheep. Sow 10 to 15 lbs. per acre. Per lb., 15c ■
(by mail. 25c per lb.); 10 lbs.. 90c; 100 lbs., $7.00.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
