Mott man’s 
ALFALFA 
Up in northern Pennsylvania 
(Elk County), E. J. Grotzinger, a 
many-year patron of Hoffman 
Seeds, harvests a very good 
hay crop. 
“We had the very best of 
results with the ‘Northwest’ 
Alfalfa.” — /. M. Risley, 
Barrytown, N. Y. 
Deep Root System 
Alfalfa is gaining favor be 
cause it has the deepest root 
system of any of the legumes. 
Alfalfa lasts for years and is 
very good to eradicate weeds 
e 
“Planted some three acres 
with your Northwest Alfalfa 
Seed. Cut about 20 tons this 
year in three cuttings. Had 
no previous experience with 
alfalfa, but will put in more 
next year and it will be your 
Northwest. Farmers who 
saw this fine field were much 
impressed with the excel¬ 
lent catch .”—Frank Leslie 
Johnson, Hyde Park, N. Y. 
HOFFMAN'S "GRIMM" ALFALFA 
(U. S. Verified-Origin Seed) 
Certain alfalfas will produce better crops, 
especially in the north. Of these outstand¬ 
ing types, "Grimm” is a leader. Withstands 
wide extremes of unfavorable weather— 
winters. through seasons that would likely 
kill off many other types. 
The name "Grimm" was given to this 
strain many years back. It has always been 
known as a good fighter against unfavorable 
conditions. Because of its many successes, 
will again be in demand this year. Comes 
here direct from the producing sections. 
Statements made by its growers under affi¬ 
davit affirm it to be true "Grimm.” 
The roots of the genuine "Grimm" are 
often curiously formed. Often they branch 
out—sometimes they grow just about like 
those of regular alfalfa. The crowns are set 
low. This protects that part of the plant 
when it’s most needed. 
If you are located on a high elevation, or 
maybe in the northern tier of counties, you 
would make no mistake in sowing this 
Hoffman Grimm Seed. Make sure the seed 
bed is well prepared and has enough lime.
