OUR ALFALFA SEED 
Grows in Every State in the Union. 
Warning: The 1934 crop of alfalfa seed is one of the smallest 
ever produced. There will be much “bootleg” alfalfa seed offered 
as hardy northern grown seed, trucked in from southern states 
or shipped in from Argentine, which is not adapted to climatic 
conditions in the north or middlewest. Such seed will be offered 
cheaper, but it will be very dear, for it will be at total loss for you. 
Hardiness and yielding ability cannot be talked into alfalfa. 
Play Safe. Buy Bober’s seed produced on dry land on the North¬ 
ern foothills of the Black Hills, where severe climatic conditions 
produce superior seed. It is cleaned, sacked and sealed in our 
branded bags at our Newell, S. D., cleaning plant. 
COSSACK ALFALFA 
The Greatest of Them All! 
Prof. N. E. Hansen's Wonder Plant 
This variety of alfalfa is perhaps the greatest of forage 
plants, and every farm should have a pasture and hayland of it. 
There are a number of alfalfas grown, but Cossack is the marvel 
of them all in hardiness and forage production. It is absolutely 
hardy on the most exposed prairie, and does well and produces 
an abundance of forage and seed in the driest of years. It will 
outyield other varieties of alfalfa and is hardier than any of 
them. Prof. N. E. Hansen, the plant wizard, introduced this 
alfalfa from Siberia where he traveled extensively in search of 
hardy plants. He has added millions of dollars of value to the 
farms of the northwest by this one kind of alfalfa—Cossack. 
Plant 12 pounds to the acre for a solid field of alfalfa.

Ten Reasons Why You Should Plant Prof. Hansen's 
Siberian Cossack Alfalfa: 1. It is the hardiest 
alfalfa known; 2. A better soil builder than other 
alfalfa; 3. More drouth resistant; 4. Will make 
a big crop of hay in a dry season when others 
fail; 5. Has a double root system, both branched 
and deep; 6. Makes fine quality hay on account 
of its finer stems; 7. Will yield more hay per acre 
no matter what weather conditions are; 8. Freez¬ 
ing does not kill young plants, neither does it kill 
or injure the growing hay; 9. Requires less seed 
per acre than other varieties; 10. Hogs do not kill 
it out in pastures.
