The Greatest 
Legume of All 
]Wmi Alfalfa is the greatest legume of all. 
Wi Without doubt it has made more money 
wii for the farmers who raise it than any other 
Jf crop*. During the drought years alfalfa 
* ■ definitely and absolutely proved itself the 
greatest drought-resisting legume that could 
be sown. It’s chinch bug proof. It’s the best 
all-round farm crop for hay, pasture and soil 
building. 
Make a firm seed bed by using a packer or a 
roller, sowing from 15 to 20 pounds per acre. 
West of the Missouri River less seed per acre is 
needed. 
Cut your alfalfa when about one-tenth of the 
bloom appears. This keeps your planting vigor¬ 
ous and healthy and gives you at 
least 3 cuttings of hay per season ^ 
and sometimes 4. ^ 0 *^

Mayworth Grimm Alfalfa is J - ©C: 
the hardiest of all. Grown Cm ^ 
in the cold, frigid climates 
of the Northwest, it has to 
be hardy to survive. 
My stock of Mayworth Grimm Alfalfa 
is descended direct from the originator’s 
seed. Grimm cannot be told simply by 
looking at the seed but an expert can 
tell it growing on the farm because of 
the great variety of color and by exam¬ 
ining the root system and other char¬ 
acteristics. 
That’s why we personally go to the farm¬ 
ers in the growing sections where Grimm 
Alfalfa seed is produced 
and select the seed by check¬ 
ing up on the pedigree and £ ■ 
studying carefully the col- H Kl 
oring of the bloom, the root H 
system and the general H 
hardy characteristics of the 
plant. Use only 12 to 15 PER E 
pounds per acre.' Sealed rtl ' s 
bushel bags, only.
