Hoffman's 
RED CLOVER Dependable for Clean , Heavy Hay Crops 
"EXTRA" RED CLOVER 
(North European) 
Here are the facts about this seed. . . . 
It is grown in northern sections of the old 
country. It is NOT the southern-grown 
unadaptable seed, which has caused so much 
crop failure in America! 
During many past years when it was avail¬ 
able, Hoffman patrons sowed just about as 
much of this Adaptable North European 
Seed as they did of the home-grown seed. 
Two years ago many of these users were 
asked, ’'How did your Hoffman imported 
clover do for you?” The answer nearly al¬ 
ways was, "I didn’t notice any difference.” 
. Some folks will sow nothing but U. S. 
Seed—others will save the difference in cost 
and sow this strain. It comes from hardy 
sources over there. Strictly clean of foul 
weeds. You take no chance whatever of 
weed injury. It is very well cleaned. Tested 
and sound. 
Five per cent of this seed is stained green 
by U. S. Government men to identify it 
from undesirable imported seed, which car¬ 
ries 10 per cent red stain. We do not handle 
Italian or other unadaptable imported seed!

“I never had such a good 
catch of medium red clover 
as I had in my wheat and 
oats stubble. It came up 
thick all over.”— Earl W.

Alfalfa, clover and paste® 
cannot fo@ satisfactorily pro 
dueed on sour soils. Soil acid 
ity is the most common single 
cause of the failure of clover 
and alfalfa to thrive and with- 
stand winter-killing.
