Some Facts About 
Lyman's Grimm Alfalfa 
1. It is positively the hardiest alfalfa seed on the market. (See 
Government Bulletin Xo. 209, Bureau of Plant Industi'v — 
Page 21). 
2. The strong hranching roots of Lj^an’s Grimm prevent 
winterkilling as in common ordinaiy alfalfa. 
3. The.se same roots which grow in time 6 to 20 feet in length 
and as thick as a man’s wrist, provide drought resistance, and 
unusual productiveness. 
4. Again these great roots make humus when ploughetl into the 
soil, and this humus conserves moisture, thus preparing the 
soil for whatever subsequent crop might call for it. 
5. Lyman’s Grimm Alfalfa plants are extraordinary .soil fertilizers 
capable of transfoi’ining the free nitrogen of the air into 
soluble nitrates through the agency of the nodule forming 
bacteria on the roots. 
In the words of B. Byron Bobb, In.stitute Lecturer, X. D.: 
“Alfalfa gives much, requiring little; it gields 
bountifullg, asks less; it pags a princely royalty, 
working gratis.”
