Alfalfa - Dependable Varieties 
Dependable Varieties—The Farmers' Hay Insurance 
Sow 15 to 25 lbs. per acre. 
As a soil builder the Experiment Stations tell us that 
it adds twice as much nitrogen to the soil as the average 
acre of Red Clover. 
COMMON. Requ ires well-drained land and an abundant 
application of lime previous to sowing. August is the 
best time to sow. Price, lb., 30c; 25 lbs. or more, 25c 
per lb. 
GRIMM. Only a few strains of Alfalfa equal, and none 
excel true Grimm Alfalfa in hardiness. It is the safest 
type to sow wherever there is trouble from winter-kill¬ 
ing. Price, lb., 35c; 25 lbs. or more, 27c per lb. 
Use Inoculation for Alfalfa. 
Buckwheat 
JAPANESE. Entirely distinct from all other varieties. It 
has the advantage of remaining some time in bloom 
and produces seed earlier. It resists drought and blight 
better than most varieties. Price, pk., 50c; bu., $1.65. 
Cow Peas 
NEW ERA. An old stand-by which makes splendid hay. 
Matures in 60 to 75 days and does splendidly as far 
north as Minnesota. Vines are smaller than other va¬ 
rieties and are more easily cured. Pk., $1.05; bu., 
$3.75. 
WHIP-POOR-WILL. A medium-early variety, very de¬ 
sirable for a forage crop and for rebuilding wornout 
land. A very prolific yielder and the most commonly 
used variety for planting broadcast. Pk., $1.05; bu., 
$3.75. 
Canada Field Peas 
CANADA PEAS may also be sown with other grains as 
well as with oats, and are sometimes sown in August 
with Barley. They are also sometimes sown alone. 
Choice stock for seed. Lb., 10c; 10 lbs., 75c; 100 
lbs., $6.50. 
Selected Seed Oats 
ROSS "SWEDISH SELECT." Extra recleaned seed. Brief¬ 
ly described, the Oat is pure white in color; the hull is 
thin and the kernel large and plump; straw is stiff and 
strong enough not to lodge. A remarkable root de¬ 
velopment makes the Swedish Oat a good drought 
resister — a special feature on light soils. Season me¬ 
dium early and the earliest of the heavy yielding sorts. 
Especially suited to high land. Seed weighs 40 lbs. 
per measured bushel. Price, pk., 40c; bu. (32 lbs.), 
$1.25; 3 bus. (full bag and over), $1.20 per bu. 
LONG'S WHITE TARTAR. The Ideal Side Oat for Amer¬ 
ican Farmers. The earliest, heaviest and most prolific 
domestic grown Side Oat in cultivation. It is suitable 
for all soils; of robust and vigorous constitution, is re¬ 
markably early and an immense cropper; the straw is 
long and stout, stands up well and does not readily 
lodge or twist. The heads measure from 8 to 1014 
inches, and the kernels are of immense size, thick, 
plump and heavy; it is undoubtedly the heaviest crop¬ 
ping domestic white Oat ever offered. Price, bu., 
$1.75. 
Rye 
SPRING RYE. True stock Spring Rye makes an excel¬ 
lent crop where winter grain has been killed out, or for 
sowing where a fall crop has not been planted. If de¬ 
sired it can be turned under and made to answer a 
good purpose in adding to the fertility of the soil. Sow 
seed same time as other spring grain. Price, pk., 75c; 
bu., $2.75. 
ROSEN WINTER RYE. Rosen Rye produces a strong vig¬ 
orous straw and stools to a remarkable degree. The 
grain is large, plump, heavy and of beautiful color, 
commanding a premium on the market over other 
grains. Owing to its vigorous stooling property less seed 
is required, the practice being about one and one-half 
bushels per acre. We believe that Rosen Rye is cheaper 
to sow even at double the price of common Rye, for 
the excess yield will more than pay for the seed, not 
to mention the better quality and high price to be 
obtained for the crop. Price, pk., 50c; bu., $1.55; 
10 bus. or over, $1.50 per bu.
