ALFALFA 
The Profitable and Nutritious Hay Crop 
Alfalfa or Lucerne will produce from 5 to 7 tons of hay an 
acre each year in the South. Lime should be applied at the rate 
of 1,500 pounds to the acre. Before sowing the seed it will be 
best to inoculate them, if Alfalfa has never been grown on the soil 
you are to sow. 
Canadian Variegated Alfalfa. Originated in Welland County, 
Ontario, about 17 years ago. It is described by Dr. Zavitz, of 
the Ontario Agricultural College, as an exceptionally hardy 
strain of Alfalfa. He reports that in an experiment extending 
over a period of 10 years, Canadian Variegated proved hardier 
than Grimm or Baltic. The New York Experiment Station re¬ 
ports Canadian Variegated just as hardy and just as high yield¬ 
ing as any strain of Grimm Alfalfa. We have the genuine stock 
to offer, Canadian grown, at lower prices even than Montana 
common. 
Grimm Alfalfa. (Ohio grown.) May usually be distinguished 
from common Alfalfa, first, by the fact that the blossoms are 
usually, not always, variegated in color, yellow, green, blue, 
brown, etc., instead of all purple. Second, by the branching root 
system instead of the long, straight tap root of the common 
Alfalfa. This enables it to withstand the hard winters, the tap 
root of the common Alfalfa often being broken by heavy freez¬ 
ing.
