Alfalfa, or Lucerne. Strictly choice samples, 
dodder-free. Lb. 25 cts. Write for prices on

Turkestan Alfalfa. This variety is far superior 
to the American product in that it withstands 
drought and cold weather where the other 
will perish. In addition to this it yields a 
larger amount of foliage to the plant of a finer 
texture, and without any rough stems so that 
stock can eat every particle. Pound 30 cts.
