Book Description
"It is desirable at this crisis to call the attention of the farmers tot he great need of producing a maximum clover-seed crop and also to the method of controlling the clover-flower midge which is one of the important factors in producing a crop. Tiny maggots in red-clover flowers prevent the seeds from maturing and cause a great reduction in the seed crop. These maggots are the young of a very minute fly known as the clover-flower midge. The farm practices by which this little pest can be controlled are light or close pasturing, early cutting, clipping and soiling. These measures are explained on pages 9 to 12. Infested fields containing mixed timothy and clover should be pastured lightly or in the growth clipped back by a mower, probably not later than may in the South or later than the middle of June in the extreme North. Close pasturing of red clover until late May or early June is an effective means of exterminating the midge. If close pasturing is impracticable, run a mower over the field to clip off the stray heads before starting the seed crop. Clipping and soiling red clover during the spring and early summer are equally efficacious methods of exterminating the midge, provided young heads of the seed crop are not allowed to appear before the middle of June."--Page 2

Book Description
"A water system that will provide a wholesome supply for family use, prove serviceable for farm use, be as nearly permanent as may be made, and cost the least has been one of the four principal utility problems of the average farmer. The aim of this bulletin is to give to farmers, county agents, and others basic information concerning sanitary and engineering principles underlying safe, serviceable and lasting water systems for farmhouses." -- p.
