Our Dakota Grimm comes from the famous Black Hills 
section of western Dakota. This seed has always had a 
reputation for its hardy qualities. The extremely cold 
winters and dry summers are a severe test, and only the 
hardier strains survive. We are told that many of the 
fields of Grimm in this section have stood for more than 
30 years.

Grow More Alfalfa 
Millions of acres will be taken out of corn and grain this year. A considerable per¬ 
centage of this acreage should go to alfalfa. Even if used only for grazing and soil pre¬ 
serving purposes it Will still be a favorite substitute. Alfalfa is longer-lived than most 
grasses or legumes and will be the choice for fields that are not intended for breaking up 
for a number of years. The importance of using only the hardiest seed is, therefore, 
obvious. Choose BRUNS’ northern

Alfalfa seed is produced commer¬ 
cially in every state between Canada 
and Mexico. In appearance it is all 
alike, but in hardiness there is a vast 
difference. Naturally the most hardy 
and resistant strains come from the 
northern sections. Origin, therefore, is 
of vital importance to every alfalfa 
seed buyer. 
All our purchases of Alfalfa this year 
have been strictly northern grown. In 
fact, most of our seed comes from the 
most extremely northern sources. 
Every pound is U. S. verified-origin. 
Experience proves that this northern 
seed is the safest and best to be had 
for planting in the region of. the upper 
Mississippi River "basin, commonly 
known as the corn belt states. 
Our advice is that you make sure of 
the source of the seed you plant. 
Origin is the most important factor in 
determining its hardiness. Select 
BRUNS’ super-hardy, northern grown. 
U. S. verified-origin seed, and reduce 
to a minimum the risk of winter killing.

IDAHO 
In offering this lot of Nebraska Grimm we wish to emphasize the 
fact that it is strictly northwestern Nebraska grown, and is not to be 
confused with seed originating in the southern part of the state. This 
seed comes from just below the Dakota line. Had it been grown a few miles farther 
north it would be Dakota grown, which is considered about as hardy as any seed 
produced. There is no good reason to believe that a variation of a few miles above 
or below this imaginary boundary line could make the slightest degree of dif¬ 
ference in the hardiness of the seed. 
Northern Nebraska Seed Is Hardy 
Seed from this northern part of the state is recognized for its exceptional 
hardiness. We believe it is nearly on a par with seed from any of the 
other northern producing sections. The important thing in buying 
Nebraska seed is to make certain that it comes from the northwestern 
part of the state, which is practically a part of the Black Hills 
section of western Dakota.

Our Idaho grown Alfalfa comes from the Twin 
Falls or Blackfoot sections, which are the principal 
producing sections of the state. This seed has a repu¬ 
tation for its hardiness, and is used extensively over a 
large part of the country. The Idaho section, of course, 
is considerably south of the sections that produce our Mon¬ 
tana and Minnesota seed, but nevertheless the seed pro¬ 
duced there seems to be sufficiently hardy for central states 
conditions. , _ .
