Hoffman’s 
ALFALFA Be Sure You Plant a Hardy Strain 
One big load after another . . . isn’t that 
what you want from your seeding of alfalfa? 
And you want a stand that is going to last 
—keep on making good crops for a long 
time. That’s why you should depend on 
Hoffman’s Alfalfa Seed. Same as more and 
more leading alfalfa men of the east are 
doing every year. Here is dependable seed! 
Top-notch alfalfa seed is again way short. 
Please don’t buy alfalfa seed on price this 
year! Some of the best-looking seed (selling 
at low prices) is from sources that won’t 
do well for you. We mean this sincerely. 
"NORTHWEST" ALFALFA SEED 
(U. S. Verified Origin) 
If you were to start on a tour among 
leading alfalfa growers . . . watching for 
good, clean, thrifty stands . . . and would 
ask the owners about the seed they sowed 
there . . . you would soon learn a lot about 
Hoffman’s '“Northwest” Alfalfa Seed. Be¬ 
cause thousands of eastern alfalfa men now 
depend on this strain. They’re glad to talk 
about it—they’re making money with it! 
One grower in Berks County points with 
pride to his various fields—now 5, 7, and 9 
years old, and still going strong. A Lebanon 
friend got 65 tons from his 12 acres. . . . 
Real hay crops demand real 
equipment to handle them. . . . 
Menno ]. Yoder. Somerset 
County, Penna. (his hay-making 
equipment shown above), told 
our man: "I have sown Hoff¬ 
man grass seeds for over 25 
years, and always had good 
crops. You can depend on Hoff¬ 
man's Seeds." 
New Kind of Silage 
Alfalfa-molasses silage is 
very profitable. It is fast gain¬ 
ing popularity and wide usage. 
This is particularly true for 
summer silage. Alfalfa is cut 
in June as early as possible 
and cut for silage in the regular 
manner. To this is added mo¬ 
lasses. This makes very excel¬ 
lent high-protein silage and be¬ 
cause of the addition of the 
molasses it makes a most pala¬ 
table feed. Although very good 
for summer feeding, it can be 
used the year round with ex¬ 
cellent results. 
“The proper amount of 
fertilizer and lime, plus 
Hoffman’s Northwest Seed, 
equals an excellent crop of 
alfalfa .”—Howard A. Miller, 
Chester, Pa.
