THElLMANiN iSEED CO.’S CATALOGUE 
ALFALFA, OR LUCERNE CLOVER 
The cultivation of ALFALFA is lately becoming of widespread interest. There has been an 
erroneous impression that it could only be grown in certain favored localities, but this idea has been 
exploded and with proper treatment and the right seed success is certain. The crop may be cut 
from three to four times a year, producing from a ton to a ton and a half at each cutting. By rais¬ 
ing it the farmer not only produces large quantities of forage, but at the same time he is enrich¬ 
ing his field for future crops, as it is a great nitrogen gatherer. The matter of SEED is of the 
greatest importance. We secure our supply from Canada, only a few miles from Buffalo, and it is, 
therefore, acclimated and much superior to seed that is grown in Utah or Kansas, the usuaJl source 
of supply. We have submitted samples to the Government and they have reported it pure and we 
are, therefore, able to furnish the most desirable seed that can be obtained. Market price.
