Summary "Clovers and How to Grow Them" by Thomas Shaw is a detailed agricultural guide written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on the cultivation of various clover species, their economic value, and the methodologies involved in growing them across diverse regions of the United States and Canada. The text is designed to serve not only farmers and agricultural students but also anyone interested in enhancing soil quality and livestock pastures through clover cultivation." "The opening of the book introduces the concept of clover as a vital crop for American agriculture, emphasizing its role in providing fodder for livestock and improving soil fertility. Shaw outlines the purpose of the book, which is to fill a gap in agricultural literature by comprehensively addressing clover growth techniques applicable to different climates and soil types. He describes common varieties of clover, their characteristics, and their importance to farming practices, especially to highlight economic and agronomic advantages. The subsequent chapters are hinted to delve into specific clover types, their growth principles, and practical application in rotations with other crops."
