ALFALFA 
Sow IS to 22 Pounds to the Acre 
Alfalfa produces a hay crop of from 
3 to 10 tons per acre, a valuable seed 
crop, and enriches the soil. 
It will thrive on almost every soil 
except a wet one. 
Alfalfa is sown in spring- or fall. Seed 
bed must be carefully and thoroughly 
prepared, should be firm, moist and 
surface loose, mellow and finely pul¬ 
verized. The entire field should be 
made as smooth as possible. 
KANSAS GROWN 
Grown on non-irrigated land. As 
pure and high in germination as extra 
care in growing and cleaning can pos¬ 
sibly make a lot of seed. We absolutely 
guarantee our Kansas seed to he the 
best that can he bought at any price. 
Ask for prices. 
GRIMM ALFALFA 
Sow 10 to 12 Pounds to the Acre 
Its variegated blossoms and branch¬ 
ing root system are well known by 
Alfalfa growers. Especially suited to 
heavy soils having hardpan near sur¬ 
face, and soils not quite as well drained 
as one would like for Alfalfa. Will 
often winter over successfully and 
thrive in places where other varieties 
cannot live. 
Grimm Alfalfa hardiness is inherent. 
We have procured some of the best 
seed grown in Idaho, which was Field 
Inspected and Certified by the State 
Authorities. Our seed is Grade Extra 
No. 1, the highest grade obtainable. Is 
shipped in 30-lb. and 60-lb. sealed bags. 
Certified. Affidavit. Ask for prices. 
CLOVERS 
RED CLOVER 
Sow 16 Pounds per Acre for Forgage 
Crop. Sow 8 to 14 Pounds per Acre on 
Small Grain Crop 
Culture. Sow Clover Seed during late 
Winter or early Spring—when the soil 
is honeycombed by frost. Clover is 
usually sown to land previously seeded 
with a grain crop. Thus no special 
land preparation is necessary. With 
grain crop removed, and Clover already 
started, growth is rapid and sure. 
Fancy, Choice. Ask for prices. 
ALSIKE CLOVER 
Alone for Forage Sow' 8 to 15 Pounds 
per Acre. On Wheat or Rye Sow 4 to 6 
Pounds per Acre 
Grows much like Red Clover but not 
quite as tall, finer-stemmed, blossem 
nearly white. Makes finer hay. Seed 
being smaller, Alsike goes farther 
when sowing. Fancy. Ask for prices. 
WHITE BLOSSOM SWEET CLOVER 
Sow 26 to 30 Pounds per Acre 
Thrives on any type of soil and un¬ 
der almost any climatic conditions. 
Will grow on sandy soil or heaviest 
clay; on stony hillsides or loose loams; 
where rainfall is heaviest and where 
it is too light to produce Red Clover 
or Timothy. Will stand more acid in 
soil than Clover or Alfalfa and is less 
dependent on good drainage than Red 
Clover. 
The best known variety. An erect 
stemming, branching, biennial plant, 
with uniform ascending stems. In its 
second season makes a growth of 5 to 
12 feet. Very valuable for pasture, 
hay, fertilizer and seed crop. Ask for 
prices. 
YELLOW BLOSSOM SWEET CLOVER 
This is also a biennial and preferred 
by some people on account of its earli¬ 
ness. It is about two weeks earlier 
than the white, does not grow quite as 
tall and not as heavy or as coarse. Do 
not confuse this with the annual 
Yellow Blossom which is of very little 
value. Ask for prices. 
KOREAN LESPEDEZA 
Korean Lespedeza is an annual leg¬ 
ume. Korean Lespedeza makes abund¬ 
ant pasture; thrives without lime; is 
drought resistant and an excellent soil 
builder. Will grow on rocky, unculti¬ 
vated soil. Korean Lespedeza is the 
best variety. Ask for prices. 
BUCKWHEAT 
Sow y 2 to 1 bushel per acre, as late 
as possible and still have crop devel¬ 
oped before severe frosts. Light, well- 
drained soils are best. Japanese, Silver 
Hull, Common. Ask for prices. 
Field Grass Seeds 
KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS 
FOR PASTURE 
Sow 25 to 30 Pounds to Acre for 
Meadow 
Standard grass for pasture and 
lawns. Succeeds in nearly all soils, 
but best in limestone. Put on plenty 
and avoid disappointment in your 
lawn. A top dressing of fine manure 
after sowing in the fall and spring 
will be of great benefit. Ask for prices. 
ENGLISH BLUE GRASS 
Meadow Fescue 
Sow 25 to 30 Pounds to Acre for 
Meadow, and 65 to SO pounds per Acre 
for Lawns 
A valuable pasture grass. Its long 
and tender leaves are much relished 
by all kinds of stock. Cured like Tim¬ 
othy, yields a very superior quality of 
hay. It is one of the earliest in the 
spring and latest in the fall. Height 
18 to 24 inches. Ask for prices.
