Alfalfa 
The Profitable and Nutritious Hay Crop 
Alfalfa or Lucerne will produce from 5 to 7 tons of hay an acre each 
year in the South. Lime should be applied at the rate of 1,500 pounds to 
the acre. Before sowing the seed it will be best to inoculate them, if Alfalfa 
has never been grown on the soil you are to sow. 
Canadian Variegfated Alfalfa. Originated in Welland County, Ontario, 
about 17 years ago. It is described by Dr. Zavitz of the Ontario Agricul¬ 
tural College as an exceptionally hardy strain of Alfalfa. He reports that 
in an experiment extending over a period of 10 years, Canadian Varie¬ 
gated proved hardier than Grimm or Baltic. The New York Experiment 
Station reports Canadian Variegated just as hardy and just as high 
yielder as any strain of Grimm Alfalfa. We have the genuine stock to 
offer, Canadian grown, at lower prices even than Montana common. 
Grimm Alfalfa. May usually be distinguished from common Alfalfa. 
First, by the fact that the blossoms are usually, not always, variegated 
in color, yellow, green, blue, brown, etc., instead of all purple. Second, 
by its branching root system instead of the long, straight tap root of the 
common Alfalfa. This enables it to withstand the hard winters, the tap 
root of the common Alfalfa often being broken by heavy freezing.
