Illustrating the two methods of J 
mixing inoculant with seed—At the 
right, the hand method for small j 
seeds, clovers, alfalfas, etc.,—At the 
left, the shovel method for larger 
seeds, soy beans, vetch, etc. 
(Center)-—Note the abundant nitro¬ 
gen-filled nodules, so necessary to soil 
improvement—the result of Hoffman’s 
Inoculant. 
TREAT ALL LEGUMES WITH 
Hoffman’s Inoculant 
It costs so little to get good crops. Use Hoffman’s 
Inoculant and get faster growth, sturdier plants. 
For Red Clover—Alfalfa—Soy Beans—Sweet Clover—Japan Clover—Vetch—Alsike— 
Canada Peas—Cow Peas. Whenever you plant be sure to inoculate your seed. Leading agri¬ 
cultural authorities say, “It pays to use inoculant.” Tests everywhere prove that inoculated 
seed produces bigger and better crops. 
Inoculate the seeds with the right bacteria. Then 
these legume plants will form little sacs on their 
roots. In these sacs they store up nitrogen which 
they draw from the air. This nitrogen not only 
helps these plants themselves, but is also left in 
the ground so that it makes better crops for you. 
See how little it costs to make money through inocu¬ 
lating these seeds. It only costs about 30 cents to 
inoculate an acre of Alfalfa with bacteria, which 
will gather about 100 pounds of nitrogen worth 
$20 to $30 annually. This bacteria may live there 
in the soil for many years. The cost is so small 
and the benefits are so great that it certainly pays 
to make sure by inoculating every legume seeding 
with a fresh, pure culture, even though the land 
has been previously inoculated. 
Want to Increase the Permanent 
Value of Your Farm? 
One way to do it is to use Hoffman’s Inoculant. 
It increases the yield and quality of legume crops 
. . . gives quicker growth—earlier maturity . . . 
makes legumes grow, when they otherwise cannot 
be grown. It supplies nitrogen to other crops that 
grow with the inoculated legume crop. That is 
why thousands of farmers use Hoffman’s Inoculant. 
Furthermore, Hoffman’s Inoculant is guaranteed 
to be a pure, live, fresh culture . . . and to produce 
more sacs filled with a plentiful supply of nitrogen.

Hoffman’s Inoculant is prepared by skilled bacteri¬ 
ologists and chemists in one of the country’s best 
laboratories. It is endorsed by Government author¬ 
ities. Very easily applied to seed, prepared in 
humus form.
