Grimm Alfalfa Seed 



The Hardiest Alfalfa Known 



The attention of the Minnesota experiment station was 

 called to this Alfalfa in 1901 and by careful experimentation 

 Grimm Alfalfa was found to be far superior to common 

 kinds in withstanding unfavorable winters. This strain of 

 Alfalfa seed not only endures extremely low temperature, but 

 it can be cut with greater safety in the fall, and will bear 

 more abuse in the way of pasturage than any other forage 

 plant. Grimm Alfalfa has larger crowns, and a more spread- 

 ing root system than the ordinary Alfalfa. It is also claimed 

 that it will yield from ten to fifteen per cent, more than any 

 other variety, and will start and thrive in undrained wet 

 locations, where the ordinary sort was tried unsuccessfully. 

 One of the characteristics of the Grimm Alfalfa is that some 

 of the plants produce peculiar greenish-yellow flowers. The 

 seed is high priced and it is rather hard to get the genuine 

 article. (See engraving.) 



Price (Domestic grown), 80c. per lb.; $42.75 per bushel of 

 60 lbs.; $70.00 per 100 lbs. 



U. 8. Dept. of Agriculture says: "In addition to the hay 

 crop. Alfalfa in tiuo years adds $100 to the va\ue of every 

 acre^on which it grows." 



Henderson's Recleaned 



Northern Grown Alfalfa Seed 



A Clover-like leguminous plant of great importance as a 

 hay and forage crop, nutritious and rich in protein elements. 

 It grows 2 to 5 feet high and sends roots, 5, 10, 20, and some- 

 times 30 feet into the subsoil. It needs one season to become 

 established, after which it yields enormous crops annually 

 for many years. Three or four cuttings per season, aggre- 

 gating 4 to 6 tons cured hay per acre, are harvested, accord- 

 ing to conditions and locality. It does well on all good, rich 

 soils (except heavy clay), if well drained, or overlying a 

 permeable subsoil; on calcareous soil it thrives especially 

 well. Our strain of Alfalfa seed is grown in far Northern 

 regions, where plants have to endure extreme cold and still 

 thrive in those high altitudes. Our experience — and that of 

 our customers — has shown that such seed is undoubtedly the 

 best for the Northern and Eastern States, and that it excels 

 all others in hardiness. Before offering this seed to our cus- 

 tomers for sale, it is thoroughly recleaned by the most mod- 

 ern seed-cleaning machinery in America. Sow in the North- 

 ern States during June, July or August, 30 to 40 lbs. of seed 

 per acre if broadcast, 25 to 30 lbs. if drilled. In the South 

 sow in February or September. 



Price, Henderson's Recleaned Seed, Domestic grown, 50e. 

 per lb.; $24.75 per bushel of 60 lbs., $40.00 per 100 lbs.
