“Leap’s Prolific” Wheat—Continued 
Extra Good Stooler. This saves seed when you sow, 
and makes more bushels for harvest. 1 y 2 bushels per 
acre of this Hoffman-cleaned, I.ancaster-County-grown 
seed is enough—you don’t need to sow more. It stools 
out strongly, roots deeply, produces many stalks. 
Early and Hardy. You don’t have to wait on it— 
Leap’s Prolific is about the first wheat ready for the 
binder. Extremely hardy—even well into the north. 
Liked for its stubborn resistance to winter-killing. 
Stiff Strawed. Even on richest soils, Leap’s Prolific 
stands up very well. Straw is of good length, too. 
Root-growth is more than ordinary—large spread, long 
depth. This helps mightily in bad weather. 
Does Not Shatter. You don’t lose a lot of your crop 
with this wheat. It stands rough handling. Grain is 
very well enclosed—avoids the wasteful shelling-out, 
which is a fault of so many other wheats. 
Liked by Millers. Grain is of good size, long type, 
and best milling qualities. Actually bought by some 
millers to distribute among nearby farmers, to insure 
having it to grind the following year. 
Kind of Soil. This wheat has been doing well on high¬ 
land, lowland, limestone, gravel, clay or slate. Even 
on thin to average land. On rich soil of course. Never 
did we meet another wheat that seems to adapt itself 
to as many soils. 
Cleaned Right. Here is where Hoffman’s Seed excels 
all others. You get no cockle, rye, garlic, or other 
weeds. Seven most-modern machines and very latest 
equipment does this work for you, and does it right! 
Smut-Free Seed. None of the crops of wheat (any 
variety) here offered you for seed use, have been known 
to contain any trace of the dreaded loose or stinking 
smut. You are hereby assured of this fact. 
New Seed Every Year—the Same Variety. 
More people are buying new Hoffman Seed every year. 
It pays them! They get an extra vigor, new blood, an 
extra profit every time they sow it. The crop tells the 
story! It easily pays the extra cost of the new seed. 
Here is a wheat that means business! Buy this Hoff¬ 
man strain of it this year. Results will pay you—no 
doubt about it. 
Other Wheat Varieties: 
If you want seed of varieties not men¬ 
tioned here, and which you recall had been 
offered on former Hoffman Lists, please write 
and tell us. Small quantities of other wheats 
are sometimes available. It will be a pleas¬ 
ure to serve you this way, if it can be done. 
W. R. Mahaney (Crawford Co., Pa.) sent this picture of his 
Hoffman “Leap’s Prolific” wheat. . . . reported his yield 
as 36 l / 2 bushels per acre. 
“30 bushels per acre is a good yield for Caroline County, 
Maryland, but your Seed Wheat did that on my farm.” 
W. Elbert Liden, Caroline County, Md. 
O. M. File, of Dauphin County, Pa., mailed this picture, 
showing his fine, thick stand of Hoffman “Leap's Prolific” 
“My yields from your “Leap’s Prolific” seed were 36y 2 and 
34 bu. per acre. . . . Sold several neighbors their seed, and 
they outyielded me.”
