never been grown on the soil you are to sow. 
Canadian Variegated Alfalfa. Originated in Welland County, Ontario, about 17 
years ago. It is described by Dr. Zavitz of the Ontario Agricultural College as an ex¬ 
ceptionally hardy strain of Alfalfa. He reports that in an experiment extending ove * 
a period of 10 years, Canadian Variegated proved hardier than Grimm or Baltic. The 
New York Experiment Station reports Canadian Variegated just as hardy and ju t 
as high yielder as any strain of Grimm Alfalfa. We have the genuine stock to offer,
