THERE IS NO STATE IN THE UNION WHERE IT CANNOT BE SUCCESSFULLY GROWN. It is the hardiest— 



the most lasting — most productive and most efGcient soil enricher. Not only does it endure extreme cold and drought but ex- 

 cellent crops of it have been raised on strongly alkaline soils. Sown alongside common Alfalfa the Turkestan made a top growth aver- 

 aging eighteen inches in height with corresponding long root growth, while the common grew only a few inches high. Spring is the 

 best time to sow the seed though very satisfactory results are obtained by planting in the early Fall months of the year and is usually 

 sown broadcast at the rate of 15 to 20 pounds per acre. It produces from 3 to 7 tons of hay to acre. It will grow 3 to 5 crops a 

 year and lasts from 5 to SO years with one sowing. It has as much protein as wheat bran. As a feed for all kinds of live stock it is 

 unexcelled. Every aj\imal upon the farm loves Alfalfa, and thrives upon it. As a pasture plant it has no equal in the amount of gain 

 upon animals that may be made from an acre of it. It does not exhaust the soil but enriches it. 



Turkestan Alfalfa ranks higher than Timothy hay in feeding value : Experiment Stations place the feeding value of AlfaUia hay at 

 twenty dollars per ton as against Timothy hay at twelve dollars per ton. Cut and cured for hay it is the greatest money-maker 

 known, averaging over forty dollars per acre clear profit. OUR SEED IS OF THE HIGHEST GRADE, NORTHERN GROWN ON NEW 

 LAND. AND IS OF STRONG AND VIGOROUS GERMINATION, AND WIU. CONFORM TO ANY PURE SEED LAW BOTH AS 

 TO PURITY AND GERMINATION.
