GRIMM'S ALFALFA 
PURITY 99% GERMINATION 90% OR BETTER 
Grimm’s alfalfa was introduced into Minnesota from Germany in 1857 by 
a German immigrant named Grimm. The seed was planted on his farm, and 
plants from the original seed are still growing from the original planting. 
This alfalfa should give wonderful results anywhere in the Northwest, 
ranking just below Cossack in hardiness and resistance to drought. Grimm’s 
Alfalfa hay is very fine and leafy. Yields of three tons per acre of dry hay are 
not unusual. 
I would be glad to have you send for a sample of this seed before purchas¬ 
ing, so that you can see the wonderful quality and purity of our alfalfa seed.

WRITE FOR PRICES 
Our regular stock of Cossack and Grimm’s Alfalfa is just as good in every 
way as the State Sealed Blue Tag seed, and unless you wish to raise Regis¬ 
tered Alfalfa seed for market, there is no reason for buying this higher 
priced seed. If you are going to raise Registered Alfalfa seed, you must 
plant State Sealed seed. We have it on hand in 30 lb. and 60 lb. State 
Sealed Bags. Write for prices.

PLANT ONLY AMERICAN GROWN CLOVER SEED 
- MEDIUM RED CLOVER 
We must maintain the fertility of the soil. 
Medium Red Clover can be grown successfully 
on many fields where alfalfa fails. Sow Clover 
liberally. Your farm needs clover. Your soil 
loses rapidly in fertility if you stop growing it. 
Medium Red Clover lives two years or more, 
grows about two feet high and makes two crops 
a year, yielding about three tons of cured hay 
feper acre. Clover hay is very nutritious, stock fed 
on it requiring less grain. Does well on a great 
' variety of soils, thriving luxuriantly on strong, 
well drained loams. It is the best for crop rota¬ 
tions and increases succeeding crops from 25 to 
60%. 
Our red clover seed is all northern grown. 
'This seed will be much better for the northern 
planter and also for those south of us than 
, southern grown or foreign seed. It complies 
with every State law. Sow about 12 to 15 lbs. to 
the acre.

’ MAMMOTH RED CLOVER 
-. 
This grows much taller than Medium Red, 
.-’with larger, leafier stalks. It will produce more 
’ ’hay on poor ground than any of the other clovers.

Red Clover 
House of Gurney, Yankton, S. Dak. 
Gentlemen: 
I must tell you that in spite of the 
hot, dry summer last year, I had a wonderful 
garden from seeds that I purchased from The 
House of Gurney. I had more than I could use 
of everything. Yours truly, 
Mrs. Henry W. Weber, Minneota, Minn. 
ALSIKE CLOVER 
Alsike can be grown on soil that is slightly 
acid or sour, and where other clover or alfalfa 
will not grow. It can be grown on heavy, wet 
or low soil that sometimes becomes water¬ 
logged, and it also endures drouth well. 
Alsike Clover is exceptionally leafy, frequently 
producing as much hay as Mammoth. Alsike is 
the hardiest of all clovers. 
Withstands the severest cold and does not 
readily winter-kill or heave out of the 
ground with frost, and readily reseeds itself. 
Grows about two to three feet high. 
This clover prefers damp, moist loamy soil, 
but it will also grow fairly well on stiff clays. 
Fine for pasture on low grounds. Sow either 
in spring or fall using about 8 lbs. of seed per 
acre. 
1 lb., 45c; 5 lbs., $2.10; 10 lbs., $4.05; 
25 lbs., $9.75; 60 lbs. (1 bu.), $22.50; 100 lbs., 
$37.50. 
WHITE DUTCH CLOVER 
A low, close-growing clover; round, white 
heads; very fragrant; best adapted to moist soils, 
but does well on dry land. 
Used extensively for lawns, either mixed with 
Kentucky Blue Grass or other lawn grasses, also 
an excellent pasture Clover, forming with Ken¬ 
tucky Blue Grass the finest and most nutrious 
food for sheep and cows. Sow 5 or 6 pounds to 
acre. Weight, 60 lbs. per bu. 
1 lb., 45c; 5 lbs., $2.00; 10 lbs., $3.80; 25 lbs., 
$9.00; 60 lbs. (1 bu.), $20.75; 100 lbs., $34.60.
