LADAK ALFALFA—THE LA' 
LADAK is a variety originated in the very high, 
mountainous sections of India. It has proved, under 
Northwestern and Great Plains conditions, to be the 
hardiest, most drouth resistant and heaviest yield¬ 
ing variety so far known. In addition it has con¬ 
siderable wilt resistance. The supply is very lim¬ 
ited. 
TEST ALFALFA SENSATION 
MONTANA STATE BLUE TAG CERTIFIED. We 
refer you to articles in the Country Gentlemen and 
other agricultural publications last winter for fur¬ 
ther information. A very short crop due to the 
drouth. Price, 1 lb., postpaid, $1.25. F. O. B. Bis¬ 
marck, 1 lb., $1.00; 5 lbs., $4.50. 
REGISTERED N. D. GROWN AND CERTIFIED 
GRIMM. 
Officially sealed and tagged 
This is officially registered and certified seed from 
fields of Grimm which have been officially inspected 
and the seed officially graded, and whose pedigree is 
on file with a history of the field in the office of state 
authorities. Grimm still remains the favorite for 
hardiness and yield. If you wish to sell your seed 
at a premium, plant this seed. Bine tag lb., 50c, post¬ 
paid. F. O. B. here, 10 lbs., $3.90; 50 lbs., $17.50; 100 
lbs., $35.00. 
NORTHWESTERN AFFIDAVIT GRIMM. This is 
genuine Grimm alfalfa which comes to us with 
the affidavit of the grower and the pedigree of the 
seed, but which is not registered and certified, and 
probably could not be. We do not recommend it 
to those who wish to grow seed, therefore, but to 
those who wish to grow feed this affidavit Grimm 
represents a considerable saving in price. Ll>., 
40c, postpaid. F. O. B. here, 10 lbs., $3.50; 50 lbs., 
$16.00; 100 lbs., $31.00. 
NORTHWESTERN, SECOND GRADE. This is seed 
Of less handsome appearance and not as high 
purity and germination as the best, but very satis¬ 
factory if seeded a little heavier. Supply limited. 
Write for prices. 
NORTHWESTERN GROWN VARIEGATED AI#- 
FALFA. The fact has become pretty well estab¬ 
lished that only the strains of alfalfa with varie¬ 
gated flowers are hardy in the Northwest. Such 
strains are Grimm, Biscomb, Cossack, Baltic, etc. 
The seed which we offer under this head is seed 
from fields with variegated bloom but for which 
the grower has no pedigree. The mere fact of 
hardiness and variegated blossom proves that it 
belongs to one of the hardy strains. Lb., 40c, post¬ 
paid. F. O. B. Bismarck, 10 lbs., $3.40; 50 lbs., 
$15,50; 100 lbs., $30.00. 
REGISTERED N. D. GROWN COSSACK. This is an 
exceptionally hardy alfalfa brought from Siberia 
by Professor Hansen. It is a heavy yielder as well 
as being very cold and drought resistant. Very 
similar to Grimm in all respects as shown by our 
many years’ trial. We are informed by ranchers 
of the Little Missouri Bad Lands that the Cossack 
is preferable to Grimm and a better yielder on the 
heavy clay or gumbo soil of that region. Each 
lot is lettered. Blue tag seed, lb., 55c, postpaid. 
F. O. B. here, 10 lbs., $4.00; 50 lbs., $1S,00; 100 lbs., 
$36.00. 
AFFIDAVIT COSSACK ALFALFA. This is high 
quality seed from unregistered fields, but genuine 
Cossack and satisfactory for all purposes unless 
you wish to sell registered seed. Lb., 45c, post¬ 
paid. F. O. B. here, 10 lbs., $3.75; 50 lbs.. $1(5.50; 
100 lbs., $32.00. 
Sweet Clover—for 1 
Free Sweet Clover Book 
ALPHA SWEET CLOVER—With the Good Qualities 
of Alfalfa. Another product of the Saskatchewan 
Experiment Station. Seems to combine the char¬ 
acteristics of both alfalfa, and sweet clover, has 
many fine stems, is very leafy, more palatable 
than sweet clover. Probably an alfalfa-sweet 
clover cross. Postpaid, lb., 40c. F. O. B. Bismarck, 
5 lbs., $1.75; 10 lbs., $3.00; 50 lbs., $13.00; 100 lbs., 
$25.00. 
YELLOW BLOSSOM SWEET CLOVER SEED. Out¬ 
side the lower and heavier soil sections of the 
Northwest the Yellow Blossom variety seems to 
be better adapted than the white. Its advantages 
over the higher and drier sections are greater 
hardiness as regards a combination of cold and 
drought, finer quality of hay, a crown like alfalfa 
so that it may be cut as close to the ground as 
one wishes. We have a wonderfully fine stock of 
seed. Lb., 25c, postpaid. F. O. B. Bismarck, 10 lbs., 
$1.25; 50 lbs., $5.50; 100 lbs., $9.00. 
Pasture—Hay—Bees 
et furnished on request. 
MIXED SWEET CLOVER SEED. For sowing on 
land where a catch is desired without breaking 
and cultivating, for scattering on old pastures and 
waste lands this mixed seed may be used to ad¬ 
vantage and with considerable saving. Prices, 
F. O. B. Bismarck, 10 lbs., $1.40; 50 lbs., $4.50; 10O 
lbs., $7.50. 
WHITE BLOSSOM BIENNIAL. The Tall, Late Sort 
that is in greatest demand if you wish to sell seed. 
This is the only kind used in Iowa and Illinois 
where 90 per cent of the seed from the Northwest 
is sold. Must be cut high for hay as it grows from 
the bases of the branches. 1 lb., 25c, postpaid. 
F. O. B. Bismarck, 10 lbs., $1.25; 50 lbs., $5.00; 100 
lbs., $8.00. 
LOW GRADE SWEET CLOVER. Lighter weight 
seed than the best and must be seeded thicker. 
Sample on request. Supply limited. 10 lbs., 75c; 
100 lbs., $6.00.

WHITE DUTCH or LAWN CLOVER. White clover 
is a hardy, low growing, perennial variety that is 
used in some sections for pasture, and is univer¬ 
sally used for lawns, either alone or in combina¬ 
tion with grasses. For lawn use seed 1 lb. to 300 
square feet or mix with grass seed at the rate of 
1 lb. to 5 lbs. of grass seed. Postpaid, 1 lb., 50c.

@ 30 c. 
MEDIUM RED CLOVER. While we have hesitated 
about advocating the Medium Red Clover for 
North Dakota, yet there are unquestionably a 
great many localities in this state and eastern 
Montana where it can be raised with profit. Does 
best in well watered land with a fairly deep soil 
and good drainage. Be sure and get our extra 
hardy and vigorous North Dakota grown seed.

ALSIKE or SWEDISH CLOVER. This clover is 
hardy and cold resistant, and is a very valuable 
pasture plant. It is low growing, and if sown for 
hay should be mixed with other clover, timothy 
or red top. Its chief value in the Northwest is for 
sowing in very wet spots where water stands at 
times and other clovers will not grow. 1 lb., 40c, 
postpaid. F. O. B. Bismarck, 10 lbs., $3.20; 50 
lbs., $15.50; 100 lbs., $30.00. 
MAMMOTH RED CLOVER. This is similar to the 
medium Red but a heavier and ranker grower, an 
exceptionally valuable clover for pasture pur¬ 
poses. North Dakota grown seed. I lb., 40c, post- 
paid. F. O. B. Bismarck, 10 lbs., $3.00; 50 lbs., 
$14.50; 100 lbs., $28.00.
