Field and Fodder Crops 
B@"As these seeds are subject to frequent market fluctuations, I therefore request customers to 
write for prices, when quantities are required. 
By mail add 10c per lb. for postage. 
ALFALFA. (Medioago sativa.) This is without 
doubt the most valuable forage plant ever introduced 
into California, and is very nutritious either green or 
when made into hay. It does well on any good soil, 
if supplied with plenty of moisture. The land should 
be prepared by deep plowing and thoroughly harrow- 
ing. Sow broadcast, 20 lbs. to the acre. 
ALFALFA, ARIZONA SEED. This is the best seed 
on the market and comes from a section totally free 
from the alfalfa weevil, and also the dodder or Love 
Vine. I handle only the best, re-cleaned seed. Lb. 
25c (by mail 35c). Larger quantities, price on appli- 
cation. 
ALFALFA, TURKESTAN. This is considered to be 
a superior variety to the one general grown here. 
It withstands more drought and cold weather, and in 
addition to this yields a larger amount of foliage of 
a flner texture. Lb. 35c (by mail 45c). Larger quan- 
tities, price on application. 
ALFILERILLA OR FILAREE. (Erodium moscha- 
tum.) A native fodder plant, very nutritious and pre- 
ferred by cattle, sheep and horses to any other of the

ing on stock ranges where the natural pasture has 
become worn out. Sow 20 lbs. to the acre. Lb. $1.00. 
Larger quantities, price on application.
