TIMOTHY SEED 
CHOICE NEW CROP. 
IOWA GROWN. 
The 1933 Timothy seed crop was the smallest in many years. A serious 
shortage is developing, and we predict the seed will be entirely off the mar¬ 
ket before planting season is over. As a result of this shortage prices are 
much higher than last year. 
Timothy is still a favorite grass with many farmers. It combines excel¬ 
lently with all other grasses and clovers. It will be an important ingredient this year in 
both temporary and permanent seedings, for the planting of the large abandoned grain 
acreage, as well as the regular acreage.

This is the highest quality obtainable. Grown in 
southeastern Iowa—the largest timothy seed producing 
section in the world. It is COMPASS quality which 
means that it must come up to highest standards in 
every way. Thoroughly recleaned, smooth, bright seed. 
Excellent purity, usually above ninety-nine and a half 
percent. If you want the best of the crop, ask for 
COMPASS BRAND. 
Price will seem high until you compare it with others. Timothy 
seed is real property this year, due to the abnormally short crop. 
Our suggestion is to cut down on timothy wherever possible and 
sow more legumes such as sweet clover, alfalfa, and red clover 
which have not gone up as much in proportion.

Lot CRYSTAL is a grade of seed that runs a 
little under our COMPASS BRAND. It can be 
sold at a lower price and undoubtedly will be .a 
popular seller. The quality is entirely dependable for re¬ 
sults. However, it is a little rugged in appearance—some¬ 
what dull in color, and less evenly graded. May contain a 
small percentage of other crop seeds, such as Alsike Clover, 
Red Top, etc., but including these the purity is quite high. 
We guarantee Lot CRYSTAL to satisfy you or you needn’t 
keep it. All our seed is sold that way. You always have 
the privilege of returning it and getting your money back, 
including the freight, if you don’t find it as represented, or 
that you have saved money on it.

This 'tjiree-in-one seeding is a fa¬ 
vorite with many farmers. It pro¬ 
duces excellent quality feed and a lot 
of it. Contains 30 to 35 per cent 
Clovers which makes a rich clover 
seeding. Sown at the rate of 10 to 
12 pounds per acre, it is an enormous 
producer. The Timothy holds up the 
clovers causing a more upright 
growth, which not only improves the 
quality of feed but also increases the 
yield.
