KANSAS ALFALFA SEED 
(U. S. Verified Origin) 
Several years in the past, when the price 
of Kansas seed was much under "North¬ 
west,” many friends sowed the Kansas seed. 
And, without exception, they were very well 
pleased with results. Regardless of price, 
there are many folks who insist on Kansas 
seed every time they put out a new alfalfa 
seeding. Especially in southeastern Pennsyl¬ 
vania and in regions south. Some make the 
claim that alfalfa seed produced in Kansas 
has to be hardy. Because of the very trying 
conditions under which the mother plants 
have to live to get up to the seed-bearing 
state. And due to the extreme freezing and 
thawing conditions that prevail there. 
This Kansas seed is a genuine product, 
dependable, clean, well worth its cost.

“I have never sowed any 
kind of alfalfa but your 
Northwest. It always grows 
very well. I would not sow 
any other kind. It does not 
freeze out. Ploughed up a 
field last year that was seven 
years old and still producing 
strong.” — H. W. Byers, 
Boyers, Pa. 
“I just want to say that 
your Northwest Alfalfa I 
planted yielded better per 
acre than any I ever planted. 
Very much pleased.”— W. E. 
Matin, Elkton, Md. 
How Can Ton Improve 
Manure? 
Manure is deficient in phos¬ 
phoric add and should always 
have an addition of Superphos¬ 
phate. Fifty pounds added to 
the average farmload of man 
ure will balance it.
