LEWIS-CLARK is our best brand and only the best seed obtainable is so branded. It is always 
carefully selected and tests the highest for purity and germination. We recommend this brand. 
FANCY. This is our second best grade, equal to, and in many cases has a higher purity and 
germination than other so-called “best” brands, ination than our other two grades, our Choice 
CHOICE. Although lower in purity and germ $ 
grade is good seed. 
This is the time to get that hay field or pasture started. If the acreage you are taking out of 
production happens to be poor soil or washes badly, plant it to sweet clover or some heavy rooted 
grass. Plan ahead—take advantage of this opportunity and secure some permanent good from this 
program. 
Look through our catalogue—you will find Alfalfas, Clover and Grasses listed and described. 
If you have any questions write us and we will be glad to give you any information that we can. 
ALFALFA 
Our Alfalfa seed is raised in the high mountain valleys and is dry land seed. These strains have 
proven the hardiest and will withstand the severe winters of our surrounding country. All lots are 
State Tested for purity and each sack is tagged showing the purity and germination, and other neces¬ 
sary information. 
CLOVER SEER 
.! ' J - 
We are located in the center of the Northern Idaho Clover producing districts. Our seed is 
raised on the high benches without irrigation. The winters are severe and the result is we have one 
of the hardiest strains of both Medium Red, Mammoth and Alsike Clovers produced in the country. 
Great care has been taken in getting these fields started to keep them free from noxious weeds and 
we select for our trade the cream of the crop. This is carefully cleaned in our modern cleaning plant 
and each lot is State Tested. A copy of this test is on each bag shipped out. 
Clovers are being used more each year, especially in the dairying districts. Not only do they 
produce one of the most valuable crops, but being legumes they greatly enrich the soil. 
On pages 4 and 5 you will find the different varieties described and priced.
