HEAVY PRODU 
Corn-Belt Alfalfa has come into existence as a registered trade 
name for Alfalfa seed adapted to the corn belt as shown on the 
map below. A few progressive seed houses have determined after 
careful investigation that alfalfa seed produced anywhere in this 
section or northwest of it is adapted to any part of this section. 
We have for example established beyond question that Alfalfa 
from the corn belt states does just as well in Wisconsin as Mon 
tana or Dakota common. It proves equal hardy, equally pro¬ 
ductive and this seed is obtainable at much lower cost. 
Thoroughly Adapted 
We have not made wild guesses but the fact of adapta¬ 
tion of such seed has been amply sustained 
by experiments made by state stations. It is 
further established by the experiences of our 
customers who have used seed from these 
sections for many years. 
We have fo'ur different grades of Corn Belt—PIN¬ 
NACLE, UNIVERSAL, ECONOMY and UTILITY 
Brands. They are adapted for sowing in all Corn 
Belt States. Our Corn Belt Alfalfa is domestic U. S. 
origin. No southern seed in Corn Belt. See page 33 
for low prices.

WESTERN 
ALFALFA 
$1522 BU 
Here is a beautiful lot of Alfalfa. 
It would delight the eye of the most 
critical seed buyer or inspector. It has 
a very high purity and germination 
test. Has nice big plump berries and 
has a beautiful color. It is high grade 
and compares with the best offered on the market. 
This is the quality we like to guarantee. 
Grown in Western States 
We bought some of this seed early in the fall be¬ 
fore the big advance in the market. Our Western 
Alfalfa is a blend of high altitude grown California, 
Colorado and Idaho. We consider it hardy Alfalfa. 
It might not qualify for giving you benefit payments 
under the A. A. A. Soil Program in the north central 
states. A lot of our customers will want it on ac¬ 
count of the fancy quality and low price. Ask for a 
sample and judge for yourself. Or, send in your or¬ 
der. If you do not find the seed equal or better than 
represented, ship it back freight collect and we will 
refund in full, plus freight. It’s Pinnacle quality 
and will save you a lot of money. Our stock is lim¬ 
ited and our advice is to order as quickly as possible. 
STATE REPORTS 
We base our claims on the character of Corn- 
Belt Alfalfa on reports from our customers and 
on reports from state experiment stations that 
we have studied. In our neighboring state of 
Wisconsin we find that Nebraska seed does as 
well as Montana or other extreme northern seed. 
Authorities recommend Grimm for super hardi¬ 
ness, when that is needed, but the corn-belt com¬ 
mon proved equal to any common. 
For records on yields we find seed from our 
Corn-Belt section to equal or surpass others, and 
in some cases excel even Grimm in yields. These 
states include Massachusetts, Delaware, New 
York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Michigan, 
Indiana, Iowa, South Dakota, Illinois, Nebraska 
and other eastern, western and southern states. 
Our investigations have overwhelmingly con¬ 
vinced us that we would not be giving our cus¬ 
tomers the service they have a right to expect, if we 
did not show them this opportunity to save money 
on their seed bill. 
OKLAHOMA 
Pinnacle Alfalfa 
DRY LAND Hardy Seed 
This seed was grown under hardy conditions, where 
there is lots of freezing and thawing. The mercury 
g-ets down below zero in the winter and they have a 
very high temperature in the summer. C. A. Helm, 
Associate Professor of Field Crops of the University 
of Missouri, has the following to say about Oklahoma 
Alfalfa: “Our tests made a number of years with 
Alfalfa Seed from various sources gave every indi¬ 
cation that genuine Oklahoma grown Common Al¬ 
falfa was just as well adapted to Missouri as com¬ 
mon Alfalfa Seed produced in Kansas, Nebraska and 
other States to the west and north.” There is no 
question about it being hardy. Oklahoma Alfalfa 
has been sown in Indiana, Illinois and other States 
with the same general good results. Too bad the 
A. A. A. does not allow benefits for soil erosion. 
Our Pinnacle Oklahoma Alfalfa is a very fine qual¬ 
ity. Runs 99% or better. Nice plump, bright col¬ 
ored seed sold to you on our Money Back Guarantee. 
It is new crop. Our stock of this quality is limited.
