“GRIMM” 
ALFALFA 
'Grimm” is the name given many years ago to this strain 
of Alfalfa. It has been known to withstand extremes of 
unfavorable weather conditions better than other alfalfas 
growing alongside. It will be widely used again this year, 
because of its fine success heretofore. It comes direct from 
the sections growing it, and is certified by its growers under 
affidavit to be the true Grimm strain. 
The roots of the genuine Grimm are often curiously 
formed. Very often they branch out—sometimes they grow 
out very much like the roots of the regular Alfalfa. The 
crowns are set low. This protects the part of the plant that 
needs most protection. You get full value for your money 
with Hoffman’s Grimm Seed. 
“Certified” 
GRIMM
