ALFALFA SEED CLOVER SEED 
Sow 8 to 10 lbs. per acre on dry land. 
Sow 10 to 15 lbs. per acre on irrigated land. 
One of our Agricultural Experiment Stations says: "The 
unfortunate use of inadapted varieties of alfalfa has prob¬ 
ably caused more failures and discouraged more farmers 
than any one factor in the production of this crop. "Sow 
only Adapted Hardy Alfalfa of Verified Origin. 
Cheaper Alfalfa Seed will be offered to you but why 
take a chance when you can purchase Montana Grown 
Alfalfa Seed of known origin at the prices we are offer¬ 
ing this year. 
"X-L" BRAND 
The finest grade of Alfalfa Seed grown in Montana and 
would command a premium on any eastern market, be¬ 
cause of its purity and extreme hardiness. Free of dodder, 
well scarified and graded. 
COMMON MONTANA ALFALFA SEED 
While not carrying as high a test as our "X-L" brand, 
this seed will prove satisfactory in every way. This seed 
is thoroughly cleaned, plump, well graded and excellent 
germination. A real buy at this price. 
"X-L" AFFIDAVIT GRIMM 
This is genuine Grimm alfalfa which comes to us with 
the affidavit of the grower and the pedigree of the seed, 
but which is not registered and certified, and probably 
could not be. We do not recommend it to those who wish 
to grow seed, therefore, but to those who wish to grow 
feed this affidavit Grimm represents a considerable saving 
in price. 
"X-L" REGISTERED GRIMM 
Years of natural selection under Montana's severe cli¬ 
matic conditions have resulted in a superior strain of 
Grimm Alfalfa and today MONTANA GROWN GRIMM 
commands a premium over all other Alfalfa seed. Regis¬ 
tered Grimm is not only winter hardy but is a high pro¬ 
ducer of high quality hay. Officially registered and certi¬ 
fied by representatives of the Montana Seed Growers As¬ 
sociation. Sold in sealed bags only, carrying the Blue 
Tag which is the highest grade established.

build up soil quickly if inoculated with NITRAGIN. 
Very easy to use and cheap costing about 15c per 
acre. By its use you will obtain a stronger, more vigor¬ 
ous plant and consequently a higher production of hay.

"X-L" SWEET CLOVER 
Both white and yellow varieties are valuable for forage 
crops in Montana. Sweet Clover grows well on all kinds 
of soils. Under dry land conditions it yields an abundance 
of forage where other crops produce but little. The large, 
deep roots penetrate, break up and enrich the soil with 
nitrogen. No other crop will furnish so much nutrition 
from early spring until late fall. It will carry from two 
to five head of cattle per acre. It grows earlier in the 
spring than many forage crops and thrives during the 
dry summer months. It will also make a large tonnage of 
excellent hay. 
"X-L" YELLOW BLOSSOM (Biennial) 
This variety does not grow as rank or tall as the white, 
has more spreading growth habit and finer texture making 
it very popular for pasture purposes. Will grow on almost 
any kind of soil and is very drought resistant. 
STANDARD YELLOW BLOSSOM 
Not as uniform or quite as high in purity as our "X-L" 
Brand and a lighter weight seed. Should be sowed heavier 
than our "X-L" Brand. Write for sample. 
"X-L" WHITE BLOSSOM (Biennial) 
A very hardy variety that will grow in all climates and 
with little regard to the character of the soil. Withstands 
extreme heat and cold, and is DROUGHT-RESISTANT, and 
will tolerate alkali. Will make a good crop of roughage 
or hay under conditions which might cause an Alfalfa 
crop failure. 
ALSIKE CLOVER 
Sow 8 lbs. per acre. 
Alsike Clover is undoubtedly the best high altitude 
clover for hay, being planted extensively throughout the 
Rocky Mountain regions at high altitude, where alfalfa 
winter-kills. The stems are thin, bearing a thick growth 
of leaves. It is a valuable forage sown alone or with tim¬ 
othy. 
"X-L" HI-GERMINATING MEDIUM RED 
CLOVER 
Sow 10 to 12 lbs. per acre. 
Sometimes called June Clover. It will produce two crops 
of hay and usually can be depended upon for a crop of 
hay and crop of seed. May be sown either in the spring 
or fall. 
WHITE DUTCH (Perennial) 
Sow 1 lb. per 300 square feet for lawns 
5 to 8 lbs. per acre. 
Makes any pasture grass better. Relished by all stock. 
With the new reduced Nitragin prices it is now possible 
to inoculate all legumes with dated, high-count Nitragin 
at a very low cost. Seed inoculation is a protection as well 
as an aid to growth. See page 38 for prices on Nitragin, 
as well as for information pertaining to it. 
“X-L” Seeds are Fresh Seeds; the date is on the packet
