ALFALFA GRIMM — The Hardiest DOMESTIC GROWN 



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 spreading root system than the ordinary Alfalfa. It is 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. Sow 30 lbs. per acre.

Sow in the Northern States during June, July or August, 30 to 40 lbs. of seed

CRIMSON or SCARLET (Trifolium Incarno- 

 tum). Plowing under a good crop of Scar- 

 let Clover is equivalent to 20 tons of

 efits derived from the wonderful nitrogen-

 repay the cost of seed and labor. Sow at 

 the rote of 1 5 pounds of seed per acre 

 either broadcast or drilled. In the latitude
